This subpage provides documentation for Template:Item link.

Lua logo

This template uses the following modules:

Shortcut

Query based item link. Use this to link items from Template:Item

Overview

Creates a link to an item page that has the item information entered by Template:Item and includes the item info box on hover on the link.

Pages with broken item links with be added to the maintenance category Category:Pages with broken item links.

Parameters

Page selection

Page search

One of these is required. Do not specify more than one.

Parameter Value Description
page str Name of the wiki page to link against
item_name str Name of the item to search for. This will search for alias of the same item (i.e. legacy names) and is case insenitive

This can pose a problem if there are multiple items with the same name (such as Two Stone Rings) - in that case use page instead.

item_name_exact str Exact name of the item to search for. Unlike item_name this is case sensitive and will only search for the current name of the item.

This can pose a problem if there are multiple items with the same name (such as Two Stone Rings) - in that case use page instead.

Filters

Parameter Value Description
link_type nil or skill nil - no restriction

skill - restricts the search to skill gems (i.e. for Template:Sl)

Output overrides

All of these are optional and can be used to customize the item link.

Parameter Value Description
name str This parameter can be used to specify different link text than the item name. This should be used mainly for grammatical purposes. If the link text is significantly different than the item name, consider using a normal wikilink instead of this template.
large boolean If set to true, instead of the small icon in front of the name, a large inventory icon will be shown below the item (suitable for tables).
image str or int This can be used to link against an alternate art version of an item.

Depending on which type is supplied:

  • int: choose the alternate art based on the index (i.e. 1 for the first alternate art, 2 for the second, etc)
  • str: choose the alternate based on the string given (i.e. "race season 1" would search for File:<itemname> race season 1 inventory icon.png and use it as image)
html str HTML to use for the itembox
inventory_icon str File to use for the inline icon link
skip_query boolean Skip querying for the item.
link str Which pages to link to, by default the item page.

Errors

No pages found

When the search parameters can't find any items for the given parameter, a red error box will be shown. It can be caused by updates to the game that change the name of items, so links to the old name can no longer find the item with the new name.

The solution is to either use a different search parameter or making sure the parameter is correct.

Example:

Broken: {{Item link|item_name_exact=Pierce}} Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name_exact = Pierce"

Fixed: {{Item link|item_name_exact=Pierce Support}} Pierce SupportPierce SupportSupport, Projectile
Icon: p
Level: (1-20)
Cost & Reservation Multiplier: 120%

Supported Skills deal (0-19)% more Projectile Damage

Additional Effects From 1-20% Quality:
Supported Skills deal (0.5-10)% increased Projectile Damage
This is a Support Gem. It does not grant a bonus to your character, but to skills in sockets connected to it. Place into an item socket connected to a socket containing the Skill Gem you wish to augment. Right click to remove from a socket.

Too many results found

When the search parameters find to many items, a red error box will be shown because the script doesn't know which one is the desired result. It is generally caused by items that share the same name, but have their own page such as variants of an unique item for example.

The solution is to use the page parameter to point to the page of the desired item.

Example:

Broken: {{Item link|item_name_exact=Two-Stone Ring}} Module Error: More than one result found for item using search term "item_name_exact = Two-Stone Ring". Try using the page parameter instead

Fixed: {{Item link|page=Two-Stone Ring (ruby and topaz)}} Two-Stone RingTwo-Stone RingRequires Level 20+(12-16)% to Fire and Lightning Resistances
