Summary: Allow arguments to pass into <inputbox> search fields?
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Search_subpages
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Normal
Component: Inputbox
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
The normal form requires hardcoding:
<inputbox>
type=search
prefix={{FULLPAGENAME}}/Archive
</inputbox>
This form (used at [[Template:Search archives]]) doesn't work in cases such as
[[Wikipedia:Archived deletion discussions]] (WP:ADD), because most of the
discussions are under [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/]]. Using that
template means hard-transcluding the page name where the tag/searchbox is,
rather than the desired subpage prefix.
I created [[Template:Search subpages]] to try and correct this problem but
found out that there's more going on:
<inputbox>
type=fulltext
prefix={{{1}}}
</inputbox>
Search "foo" returns:
Search results for: [foo prefix:{{{1}}} ] = None found.
I don't know how this might be done. I'm guessing there might be some security
issues.
