Template:Bug
Summary[edit]
This template allows for the consistent presentation of bugs and their easy categorization.
Parameters[edit]
| Parameter | Scope | Description | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| description or 1 | required | A brief description of the bug. | ||||||||
| fixedby or 2 | optional | The name of the patch that fixes the bug.
| ||||||||
| fixversion or 3 | optional | Adds a version number to the fix text. | ||||||||
| fixdetail or 4 | optional | Extra detail about the nature of the fix if it isn't obvious from context. This changes the fix text to read "The <patch> addresses this issue. <fixdetail>". Capitalize the first sentence and end it with the appropriate punctuation. This template does not add a period automatically. | ||||||||
| confirmed | optional | Adds unfixed bugs to the "Confirmed Bugs" category. If missing, blank, or 0, bugs are instead added to the "Unconfirmed Bugs" category.
Bugs can be marked as confirmed when either multiple people have experienced the bug and reported it online (update value to 1, 2, 3, etc.), or if a bug is experienced in game and the reason for it can be confirmed in the Creation Kit (value is CK). In the latter case, use the modnotes parameter to document the reason. | ||||||||
| dlc | optional | This alters the category used so it's easier to determine and correct DLC-specific bugs. Please use the common two-letter abbreviation (listed below), or the full name of the plugin (such as, "Deimog").
| ||||||||
| section | optional | Specifies a talk page section relevant to the bug for unconfirmed bugs. | ||||||||
| modnotes | optional | Detail about where the cause of the bug lies and how to fix it. By default, this will not display for most users. May be overridden by specifying a style for the modnotes class in common.css which includes a "display:inline" property (or similar, according to the user's preference). | ||||||||
| afktrack | optional | tracking number, adds a link to the specified bug description on the AFKtrack website. | ||||||||
| tracking | optional | Adds a link to the specified bug description on any other website. | ||||||||
| nobullet | optional | If non-blank, causes the template not to include the usual level of bulleting. Used purely for formatting purposes. | ||||||||
| nocat | optional | If non-blank, does not add the bug to any categories. | ||||||||
| nofixmsg | optional | If non-blank, does not display the "fixes this bug" message. |
