Template:If mobile

Template documentation[ view · edit · history · purge ]

This documentation is transcluded from Template:If mobile/doc.

This template uses TemplateStyles:

Template:If mobile/styles.css

Note that {{If mobile}} only works outside of the Template: namespace.

This template detects whether it is being used on the mobile version of Wikipedia (en.m.wikipedia.org), and displays different content accordingly.

Rationale

Some features work differently on the mobile website, such as slideshow galleries appearing as ordinary galleries. This templates allows better presentation of such content, by e.g. having a "Slideshow" heading when a slideshow is shown, and a "Gallery" heading when a regular gallery is shown. cghvhbkm,

Usage

{{If mobile|content for mobile website|content for desktop website}}

By default, <span>...</span> tags are used to wrap the specified content. A different tag may be specified using |tag=

E.g. |tag=div can be used if the content contains block-level elements.

Example

Normal usage

{{If mobile|A mobile user you are!|You are looking at the desktop site}}
