Including this variable is useful when you wish to include a line break or use alternative text for a link to a category page. One reason to do this is for subcategories. In the example, the category "Energy Healing" is actually a subcategory of "Alternative Medicine", so it's useful to give the "category" a label that groups it alphabetically with "Alternative Medicine" on the [[Browse Categories]] page.

Description

This is a simplified way to add formatted entries to the Browse Categories page. It includes the icon, category, the text used for the link to the category page, and the number of members in that category.

For a list of categories, see Special:Categories.

Usage

There are 3 variables:

  • icon – full filename of picture to use as category icon
  • category – category name
  • categoryLabel – optional text that appears as the category link. If omitted, the category name is used. Including this variable is useful when you wish to include a line break or use alternative text for a link to a category page.

Example:

{{Cat. table entry
|icon          = CatIcon energy.png
|category      = Energy Healing
|categoryLabel = Alt med:<br>Energy Healing
}}

Copy

{{Cat. table entry
|icon           = 
|category       = 
|categoryLabel  = 
}}
