This template was copied off MediaWiki's sandbox. The following link overviews the template usage: [1]
It's been tweaked a bit to rid it of:
- a defunct parser function '#ifeq'; due to missing/disabled required MediaWiki Extention (at the time of editing the template); and
- calling another template; i.e., Linear-gradient, which in turn invokes a defunct parser function '#switch'.
The text styling parameter this '#ifeq' controls can still be passed via another available parameter; namely, 'style'. With the latter, one or more additional CSS properties and values can be passed, separated by semicolons, as well as must end with one (e.g. style=font-weight:bold;text-align:center;). Please, note that the double quotation marks are deliberately left out -- they should not be used in this style parameter.
The parameters this tweaked templates accepts are:
text: Button text;padTB: Top and Bottom padding (a number along with the unit);padLR: Left and Right padding (a number along with the unit);bgcolor: Button background colour; usually, in hexadecimal format, or any that accepted in inline styling;fgcolor: Button text font colour; andstyle: Any additional inline styling properties along with their values.
On the other hand, the following parameters have been dropped with this initial version of the template:
bgcolor1,bgcolor2: Button background gradient colours. Originally, they were passed to another template, Linear-gradient. Because it's omitted now, these colours are now hard-coded at the defaults: #FCFCFC and #E0E0E0, respectively.format: It was bold text toggle. Instead, please use the style parameter as indicated earlier.
