Template talk:Clickable button

Category targets don't work?

Hello (Rillke again? :-). I just tried to add this template using a category as the target, and it doesn't work. It added the category to the bottom of my page. No matter the variations I tried, including "nowiki" tags, I was not successful, so I used the external=yes parameter to provide the template with a full URL to the category in question. This is of course not "ideal" for internal links. Thanks, Boo-Boo Baroo (talk) 04:06, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Try that: {{Clickable button|:Category:Buttons|Link to cat}} Link to cat

Should adopt simpler mw-ui- "Agora" buttons styling

I think Upload looks nicer and has better hover and click behavior. It's the mw:Agora theming that MediaWiki is slowly adopting, and it's simpler CSS. Compare this template with en:Template:Clickable button. Cheers. -- S Page (WMF) (talk) 23:41, 3 July 2014 (UTC)

Hey S Page (WMF), thanks for keeping us up-to-date. The only challenge is with the icons. AFAIK, MediaWiki does not adopt them? -- Rillke^(q?) 07:47, 4 July 2014 (UTC)

Rillke: (Sorry for my delay in replying, if only single-user login had arrived before Echo we might have cross-wiki Echo notifications!). mediawiki.UI supports icons, though the only one currently implemented is 'ok'. The MediaWiki theme for the mw:OOjs UI component library will support lots of Wikicons, but I'm not sure how wiki templates will be able to use those components without JavaScript; it'll probably be a while -- SPage (WMF) (talk) 01:51, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

 Comment I don't like the flat buttons. IMHO flat rectangles are not buttons. ↔ User: Perhelion (Commons: = crap?)  12:22, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Indeed, the white flat button (the default agora one) is quite hard to recognize as a button (for me). A button is something I want to press/ push down. Recently I missed the button to open the door on a tram because it was as slick as the default agora button and there was some artwork around it. I thought: "What a horrific UX" after the tram left the station without me.

At least as long as we have the bloated vector skin on by default, I personally don't like the idea very much. With Winter, okay; we also would have to adopt some templates to be less attention-grabbing. It's not just the button. -- Rillke^(q?) 13:39, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Color missing

Dear all,

Despite adding the following code in my wiki:

class=ui-button-red ui-button-large

My button is still not large, and not red. Just small and gray. Any ideas why?

Thanx for your comments.

@Hjas1982: Which skin is enabled by default? If it's not the Vector, it won't work. Did you check with a CSS inspector what could be wrong? Did you add a snippet similar to the below one to MediaWiki:Common.js? -- Rillke^(q?) 16:38, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

/**

mw.hook( 'wikipage.content' ).add( function ( $content ) {
	var $accordion = $content.find( '.accordion' ),
		$button = $content.find( '.ui-button' );

	if ($accordion.length) {
		mw.loader.using( 'jquery.ui.accordion', function () {
			$accordion.accordion( { autoHeight: false } );

Please add noinclude tags to the documentation template on the template's page. Funandtrvl (talk) 16:59, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Because? ↔ User: Perhelion (Commons: = crap?)  23:22, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

This template is transcluded at Template:Infobox aircraft image, which, for some reason is being categorized into Category:Template documentation. See: Commons:Village pump#Template:Infobox aircraft image. I'm trying to figure out which sub-template is causing the transclusion. Funandtrvl (talk) 16:44, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

mobile view

Is there an easy way to get these buttons to display in the mobile view? Right now all users see is the text. /Lokal_Profil 19:00, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
