Hi, there seems to be glitch with the template in that where the N Brown page has the player No. of 11 or 12, the template does not work. The code also says htm rather than html and the N Brown page displays differently. Examples are Frank Parsons (English footballer) here and Tom Vansittart here. Thanks. Eagleash (talk) 12:32, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Eagleash: Hi, Thanks for getting in touch. I have attempted to fix the problem. It appears the domain directories player11 & player12 have pages with the .htm extension. If this is the case then supplying the .htm in the ID field will ensure '.html' is not appended. I have updated the template documentation with a third example. Regards. --PeteS (talk) 23:51, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
- I went to try it at Vansittart but you beat me to it. Thanks! Great stuff. Eagleash (talk) 00:05, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
- Hi, it looks like this fix has inadvertently messed with the formatting. It's now removing the bullet (even though the asterisk is there in edit mode). Could you have a look at that please? Thanks, Nzd (talk) 00:37, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
- Given the visiblity of the template, I've reverted this change for now. Hope that's OK. Nzd (talk) 11:04, 12 December 2017 (UTC)
