Suggestion for new download box
I've always been kind of irritated by the download box. There's some usability issues with it: it's wordy, and you're linking to something by using the words "click here", which can basically be easily avoided...
File: Soned2.exe (250 KB)
Current version: 1.03 |
This one conveys the exact same information using less words, and uses the exact same template parameters, so as to not break compatibility. The template also had the variable "plural" in it...I ran a search for "plural" and couldn't find any pages using it. However, that becomes irrelevant if we were to use this new box.
The template code (it will need to be tested):
{|style="background:#444;width:400px;border:1px solid #888;color:#fff;margin:20px 0;padding:10px" |align="left" width="50px"|[[Image:Download.svg|40px|link=File:{{{file}}}]] | [[Media:{{{file}}}|<span style="font-weight:bold;font-size:140%;color:#ffff00">Download {{ #if: {{{title|}}} | {{{title}}} | {{PAGENAME}} }}</span>]] <div style="font-size:90%">'''File:''' <span style="color:#ddd">{{{file}}} {{#if:{{{filesize|}}}|({{{filesize}}})|}}</span><br> {{ #if: {{{version|}}} |'''Current version:''' <span style="color:#ddd">{{{version}}}</span>|}}</div> |}
