How To Use Icons Edit

To use an icon in an Icon in an item, equipment, or other type of page you should first find the correct icon for the image. A description of the Icon organization and categorization is in the next section of this page. If you are unable to find the Icon after searching you can simply upload a version of the Icon you want to use. Directions on the proper way to upload an Icon can be found in the How To Upload An Icon section of this page.

Once you have found or uploaded the correct Icon, you simply need to copy files name. For example, if you wanted to use this icon: File:Icon bench 01 (Treasured).png in an item template, you would simply copy the Icon bench 01 (Treasured).png part of the files page name and insert that into the page template.

Example Item Template Edit


Below is the top portion of the Item Information Template . The way you would insert the Icon into the template is to put the File's page name minus the "File:" into the icon =| template parementer. An example is below.

{{ItemInformation|
iname =|
idesc =|
type =|
subtype =|
aaexp =|
altname =|
icon =Icon bench 01 (Treasured).png|
...template truncated

Example Equipment Template Edit


Below is the top portion of the Equipment Information Template . The top portions of this template looks similar to the Item template and the usage of the Icon's page name remains the same. Simple insert the Icons page name minus the "File:" into the icon =| template parementer. An example is below.

{{EquipInformation|
iname = |
idesc = |
iname2 = |
idesc2 = |
icon = Icon bench 01 (Treasured).png|
...template truncated
