قالب:Ifempty/شرح

قالب {{Ifempty}} إذا كان فارغ.

This template is used inside other templates. It takes up to four parameters and returns the first one that has any content. That is, the first one that is defined (not null) and not empty. Typical usage is like this:

{{Ifempty| {{{logo|}}} | {{{image|}}} | default.svg}}

خلفية

The MediaWiki parameter default function doesn't return the default value for empty parameters. That is, {{{logo|default.svg}}} does not return "default.svg" if the template was called like this: {{قا|logo=}}.

The usual workaround is to do like this:

{{#if:{{{logo|}}}| {{{logo}}} | default.svg}}

But this becomes complex when you want to check several parameters:

{{#if:{{{logo|}}}| {{{logo}}} | {{#if:{{{image|}}} | {{{image}}} | default.svg}}}}

Then it is easier to use this template instead:

{{Ifempty| {{{logo|}}} | {{{image|}}} | default.svg}}

Note! The parameters to {{ifempty}} must use the pipe "|", like this: {{{logo|}}}. Or else {{ifempty}} will be fed and return the string "{{{logo}}}" if logo was not defined.
