Template:Always substitute
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Always substitute}}). |
File:Test Template Info-Icon - Version (2).svg Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]
.svg){kind=link}
| Please do not substitute this template. |
{{Always substitute}} produces the following notice:
| This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:foo}}). |
(but {{Always substitute}} itself should not be substituted.)
Usage
{{Always substitute}}
{{Always substitute}} should be placed on the documentation subpage of any template that requires substitution rather than transclusion (i.e. not on the template's own page itself).
Pages that include {{Always substitute}} are added to Category:Substituted templates.
Parameters
|auto=
- If set as "yes", the template to which the notice refers will be subst:ed automatically unless the
|demo=yesparameter is set. The notice is amended to state this. Default is "no". Setting this parameter to "yes" places the template in Category:Templates to be automatically substituted;
|alt=
- Use to set an alternate and transcludable name for the template.
