Template:Previous
Creates previous navigation between items in a specified category. Is written to be embedded in another template to style as a navigation bar, and automatically generate previous page links from whatever the current {{PAGENAME}}
is.
Examples
{{previous|category=Fruit examples}}
Result: {{#dpl: |category=Fruit examples |notcategory= |namespace=Main |titlelt=Previous |mode=inline |ordermethod=sortkey |order=descending |count=1
|format=,
,
|debug=0 }}
Notes
The #titleparts
section of the ParserFunctions page explains that Magic Words like {{PAGENAME}}
occasionally return strings as needlessly HTML-encoded, this formerly caused DPL3 to not return results when page names contain '
and other special characters. Use of {{#titleparts:{{PAGENAME}}}}
HTML-decodes, converting it to plain text.
