Template:Var
{{Var}} is a technical template allowing a default value to be specified if a given parameter is empty. This is useful because when a template uses something like {{{param|default}}}
, and it is called with |param=
(with no value given for param
), the default value default
will not be displayed.
Usage
{{Var|{{{param}}}|default}}
Technical notes
This template is exactly equal to {{ #if: {{{param|}}} | {{{param}}} | default }}
and should be avoided in favor of the raw code in cases where there is little overhead or in widely used templates.
