+ | So I'm trying to make a couple templates that are supposed to streamline other contributors adding data (some infobox templates and some templates that are each rows to go in a table).<br><br>I've got them working just fine, save for a capitalization problem.<br><br>Say I set "|a = Foo" on the content page. I have an image made by <nowiki>"[[File:{{{a}}}_icon.png]]" and a name next to it, "[[{{{a}}}]]"</nowiki> as it should.<br><br>But I want to be able to set it up so that users could write "|a = foo" and it reinterpret "foo" to be "Foo" so as to not have broken links and non-caps titles. <nowiki>{{ucfirst:}} works, but say I need to put in Foo Bar, then {{ucfirst:}}</nowiki> would only net Foo bar, leaving it in almost sentence case.<br><br>I've tried importing and using <nowiki>{{Fixcaps}} {{Title case}} and {{#invoke:String2|title}} and while they work fine on regular text and on [[links]]</nowiki> (for the most part), still none of them agree with parameters. They all try to just capitalize <nowiki>{{{a}}} to {{{A}}} before reading {{{a}}}</nowiki> for its contents.<br><br>Are there any existing templates, or if not, is there any good place to start trying to make a template that'll fill this purpose? |
