The template
...
Usage
This shortens external URLs. Consider that shortened URLs may cause wrong copy-paste by unexperienced users.
Note: Requires Extension:StringFunctions
Usage
{{ShortURL
|url =
|count =
|suffix =
|domainonly =(yes)
|domainbold =(yes)
|tolerance =
|forcecount =(yes)
}}
- count: optional / default: 30
- The number of displayed characters. It counts and returns the string without "http://" and "www." (if the URL is longer than the default 30 characters).
- It uses a tolerance of 5. So if you define count=10 the string will not be shortened if it is between 1 and 15 characters long.
- suffix: optional / default: "…" (not ...)
- Adds an suffix at the end of the shortened string. It is not recommend to set an empty suffix.
- domainonly: optional
- domainonly=yes will only display the domain (including subdomains if given). A setting for count is useless here.
- domainbold: optional
- domainbold=yes will highlight the domain bold. This is useful for lists of many different external URLs.
- tolerance: optional / default: 5
- Override the default tolerance.
- forcecount: optional / default: no
- forcecount=yes overrides the (default) tolerance and forces a strict count.
