Edit request
{{editprotected}}
Please remove the usage section and replace it with the
template as I've created a documentation subpage at Template:Fontcolor/doc. A specific description of the request follows below. Thanks.{{Documentation}}
Change this:
{{#if:{{{3|}}}|<span style="background-color:{{{2|inherit}}};color:{{{1|inherit}}};">{{{3|}}}</span>|<span style="color:{{{1|inherit}}};">{{{2|}}}</span>}}<noinclude>== Usage =='''<nowiki>{{fontcolor|text_color|background_color|text}}</nowiki>'''Examples of use:*'''<nowiki>{{fontcolor|green|this is about plants}}</nowiki>''': {{fontcolor|green|this is about plants}}:(it appears in green text).*'''<nowiki>{{fontcolor||red|text in red background}}</nowiki>''': {{fontcolor||red|text in red background}}:(no parameters are used for the text color, only for the background)*'''<nowiki>{{fontcolor|red|yellow|red text with yellow background}}</nowiki>''': {{fontcolor|red|yellow|red text with yellow background}}== See also ==* [[HTML color names]]* [[List of colors]][[Category:text color templates]][[pt:Predefinição:Fontcolor]][[sl:Predloga:Barvapis]][[zh:Template:Fontcolor]]</noinclude>
To this:
{{#if:{{{3|}}}|<span style="background-color:{{{2|inherit}}};color:{{{1|inherit}}};">{{{3|}}}</span>|<span style="color:{{{1|inherit}}};">{{{2|}}}</span>}}<noinclude><!-- Add categories and interwikis to the /doc subpage, not here! -->{{Documentation}}</noinclude>

Link
I added |link=
to {{font color/sandbox}} to add a wikilink. The use is when the blue link would be non-accessible on a background such as a navbox header. A search shows this use is prevelant.
|link=yes
sets the link to the test|link=link
sets the link to the link text
Markup | Renders as |
---|---|
[[Universities Research Association|{{font color|white|blue|Universities Research Association}}]] | |
{{font color/sandbox|white|blue|Universities Research Association|link=yes}} | |
{{font color/sandbox|white|blue|Universities Research Association|link=URA}} | |
Two problems
One, two lines of the template were setting the background colour to {{{2}}} in the two-parameter case, where the second parameter is the text to be displayed, not a colour name.
Two, when templates are expanded as part of a signature, the software does not remove the comments. So the comment in the first #if
was breaking the logic of the template; the #if was always coming out true. This behaviour could also be seen in the result from Special:ExpandTemplates. -- John of Reading (talk) 08:12, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
Added more named parameters
Per sandbox and new testcases, named parameters now work for {{{1}}}
{{{2}}}
and {{{3}}}
.If this is OK, yet not documented withing a while, I'll document it. fg=1 bg=2 text=3. Link=4 was already there. — CpiralCpiral 08:30, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
Made spacing irrelevant inside
Space characters did not need to define colors,nor be used in a label field to add space outside the template.So I made the space issue go away in the sandbox and redid all the testcases. Then I did this search link hastemplate:"font color" insource:/\{\{ *[Ff]ont color *\|[^}]*( \||\| )/ prefix::and fixed a few minor things in those to feel totally right about swapping it into service.— CpiralCpiral 12:48, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
Template-protected edit request on 22 January 2017
Add <noinclude>{{subst:tfm|Colored link}}</noinclude>
to the top, as I just nominated it for merging. Noincluding as it is sometimes substituted. Pppery 02:29, 22 January 2017 (UTC)
Parameter request
Hi, can you add a 'font-type', 'font-family' or 'font-variant' in it. It would be very helpful. Empire AS (Talk) 07:42, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
- Sdkb, I know that however the problem is, that template uses named parameters but an unnamed parameter of font should be here too. Empire AS (Talk) 07:51, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not quite sure what you're proposing (you could mock it up the sandbox if you want to demonstrate), but generally I think it's not a good idea to expand the functionality of this template beyond just selecting the color. If we were to do that we'd just want to merge it with {{Font}}. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 08:17, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Color of link underline
Currently, if a link is colored using this template, the underline is not colored appropriately, e.g. Main Page. {{Colored link}} properly handles this via the CSS text-decoration: inherit
; I'd personally suggest to just shell out to {{Colored link}} when this template is used to color a link, but the CSS could also be added here directly. 「ディノ奴千?!」☎ Dinoguy1000 11:53, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
