Template:Template display

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used on many pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

The desktop and mobile browsing interfaces on Wikipedia differ substantially, and sometimes different templates are more or less suitable for a specific interface. For this reason certain templates do not display in mobile view, using the class = "nomobile"

As of March 2017, only the "nomobile"-class is implemented, and "nodesktop" / "mobileonly" classes do nothing because they are not enabled in MediaWiki:Common.css or MediaWiki:Mobile.css.

This template does not itself control where content is displayed. It is intended only for template documentation, to explain a template's behavior in the mobile view.
