How to use templates

 

 

---

Thanks to @hunz, who wrote templates source code, our wiki looks prettier and adding information about monsters and items is now easier.
But not everyone knows how to edit pages using templates. This is why I made this guide. It is really easy, but it will take a lot of effort to edit all the item/monster pages.

---

Currently, we do have these templates on our wiki:

• Template:Item
• Template:Monster
• Template:Npc
• Template:Rune
• Template:RuneShop (if rune can be bought in Magic Shop, add rune=SingleRunePrice| BP=BPPrice|)
• Template:Spell
• Template:Quest and Template:Spoiler
• Template:Keys
• Template:Transcripts

---

To use them you simply copy and paste the code and edit it to match the info about specific item/monster. Paste it into the source code of a page you want to edit. To open source code click Source button in Editor.
[[File:]]
Here are the source codes:

Item Source Code 

ITEM SOURCE CODE {{Item| name=| image=[[File:filename.png]]| category=| atk=| def=| arm=| loot_value=| weight=| hands=| dropped_by=[[MONSTER]]| description=| attributes=| note=| buy_from_CITY=[[NPC NAME]] (PRICE gp)| sell_to_CITY=[[NPC NAME]] (PRICE gp)| }}

Example (Skull Staff) {{Item| category=Clubs| name=Skull Staff| image=[[File:Skull staff.png]]| atk=36| def=12| hands=1| weight=17.0| description=The staff longs for death.| loot_value=6,000 - 7,500 gp| dropped_by=[[Necromancer]], [[Warlock]], [[ ]], [[Ogre Warrior]], [[Necromantica]]| sell_to_yehsha=[[Alesar]] (6000 gp, only if friendly with green Djinns)| note=Upgrading from a [[Dragon Hammer]] to a Skull Staff will enable you to carry almost two additional backpacks full of runes. It's part of the [[Mid Level Set (Any Vocation)]]. Can be obtained in [[Medusa Shield Quest]]. }}

---

Notice that I've deleted some part of the code that I didn't need (in this case arm=|, attributes=|) because Skull Staff don't have armor or any other attribute. Also, notice that all the links are in square brackets ( [[|]] ).
Most of the item/monster files are named Ham.png/Skull staff.png/Ghoul.png/Dragon lord.png etc.

When editing this monster I deleted skinnable=|, strategy-knights=|,strategy_mages=|, strategy_archers=|, task=|, etc. from source code because I didn't need it.

The damage area will be a total of 37 squares, as shown in the picture, unless some of the squares are obstructed. The player using the GFB rune is never affected by it.| note=This rune is really useful to get rid of big groups of monsters when the character gets surrounded or when you need to clear a room. As the Magic Level raises, the rune will become more effective, to the point that sometimes, the FB rune will be enough, which allows to save the GFB to harder situations.| rune=250| BP=5000| c_ab=Elathriel| c_yehsha=Rahkem| c_carlin=Padreia| c_osaris=Bedhin| c_thais=Marvik| c_venore=Smiley| ms_yehsha=Haffnal| ms_carlin=Lea| ms_osaris=Bedhin| ms_kazordoon=Etzel| ms_thais=Muriel| ms_venore=Chatterbone }}
