| − | This template is used within your article to display a Category Tree. Category Tree is an extension that provides a nice visual formatting and display of the Categories in a clickable tree. Among other things, Category Tree dresses up the display of [[Special:Categories|Categories]] on this site. | + | This template is used to display a Category Tree |

| − | You can display a Category Tree in your article in three ways:
| + | http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree |
| − | <ol>
| |
| − | <li>the categorytree tag
| |
| − | <pre><categorytree
| |
| − | mode="parents"
| |
| − | depth="3"
| |
| − | hideroot="on"
| |
| − | hideprefix="categories"
| |
| − | showcount="on"
| |
| − | namespaces="Help Talk 0"
| |
| − | class="sidebarTree"
| |
| − | style="font-size:1.3em;"
| |
| − | id="thisBox">Applications</categorytree>
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | <li>the parser tag
| |
| − | <pre>{{#categorytree:Foo|hideroot|mode=pages}}</pre>
| |
| − | <li>the 'Categorypage' template
| |
| − | <pre>{{Categorypage|Foo}}</pre>
| |
| − | </ol>
| |

| − | The third option is intended to be used most, because it's the easiest.

| − | This wiki is designed so that every major category (of articles) has an article introducing that category. For example, a major theme of this wiki is "Applications", so there is a category for any article which is about or relates to an Application. There is also a "First-level" article '''named''' [[Applications]] that introduces the reader to the subject. Such a high-level overview page should include links to all the articles within the subject matter. The easy way to make that happen is to use the <pre>{{Categorypage|Foo}}</pre> 'Categorypage' template
| |

| − | Under the covers, the Categorypage template implements the CategoryTree extension. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree for full details of the extension.

| − | This template is setup to make it even easier to put a CategoryTree on your article. You just use the template syntax, and give it the argument of the Category you want to show:
| + | <nowiki>{{Categorypage|Free Software}}</nowiki> |
| − | e.g.
| + | </noinclude> |
| | | | |
| − | <nowiki>{{Categorypage|Free Software}}</nowiki>
| + | [[Category:{{PAGENAMEE}}]] |
| − | </noinclude>
| + | [[Category:PAGENAMEE]] |
