Template:LogList

Usage

{{LogList
|date_style=RL/IC
|explain_date=yes/no
|-------------------
|the_log~Link to page name
|my_title~Title you'd prefer to use, if not the default
|description~Your description of the scene.
}}

This is a helper template to format AdvLog pages.

Examples

{{LogList
|the_log~[[Jai - Sugar Lumps]]
|description~When you party with the party prince, you get two complimentary after-dinner mints.
|the_log~[[Jai - Fork In The Road]]
|description~In which Petra presents Jai with a '''decent''' proposal, for a change.
}}

The basic use, giving you:

01/23/2008	01/23/2008: Sugar Lumps When you party with the party prince, you get two complimentary after-dinner mints.
09/12/2009	09/12/2009: Fork In The Road In which Petra presents Jai with a decent proposal, for a change.

The optional elements include 'my_title', which should be inserted only for each log whose title you want to change on your page, and two special options above the line, 'date_style' and 'explain_date'.

More Explanation

This template is slightly trickier to use than most.

• You only need one instance of this template in your AdvLog page.
• Each log in your list takes a "the_log", an optional "my_title", and a "description".
  • They need to be in order (the_log, my_title if used, description) and please note that the repeated parameters are set off by a ~, not a =. If you don't do it this way, it won't work!
  • Using a ~ or an = in any of your log names/titles/description will also not work as expected.
• The optional parameters above the dashed line DO use an equals sign, however.
  • If you leave out these parameters, the default behaviour is to use IC dates and not give the date explanation line.
  • These parameters are independent of each other; you can freely use IC dates and explain it, use RL and not explain it, or whatever combination you like.

If you find yourself confused, check (but don't change) Jai/AdvLog, where you can see this in use.
