Created page with 'I'm not the greatest at Wiki-code so if anyone knows how to ''hide'' the fields that aren't used and can implement that it'd make these look a lot better. I know it involves a {{…'

New page

I'm not the greatest at Wiki-code so if anyone knows how to ''hide'' the fields that aren't used and can implement that it'd make these look a lot better. I know it involves a {{#if:this|then|else}} but I'm apprehensive about testing...--[[User:Gentlegiant03|Gentlegiant03]] 20:40, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

	*Secondary, I wonder if a special infobox for Campaign bosses might be appropriate? Also, if there was a desire to have monster infoboxes without the boss info, maybe a boss only template?		*Secondary, I wonder if a special infobox for Campaign bosses might be appropriate?

		+	**Yeah, this has been a thorn in my side when working with these templates. Without If/Then parsers I can't have the boss fields blank when not filled in. I considered having separate templates, one for monster, one for monster+boss, one for boss... you bring up a great idea though: just monster and boss separated, just pop one below the other. I'll tackle this later today if possible, see how it'll look, maybe name DDBoss?--[[User:Gentlegiant03\|Gentlegiant03]] 18:57, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

	* I'm not the best coder ever, but I do know WIKI is basically HTML with added logic, so that sort of thing should be fairly easy. Still, the monster pages themselves would need to contain an identifier telling the template whether the boss thing should be added or not. I think it's pretty easy, but I'd have to study it a little, so don't worry if you see some weirdness in the monster files for a while... ;) --[[User:Headrock\|Headrock]] 21:10, 23 November 2010 (UTC)		* I'm not the best coder ever, but I do know WIKI is basically HTML with added logic, so that sort of thing should be fairly easy.
