Optional parameters

1

Mozilla subdomain

The template will, as default, link to the main Mozilla website (www.mozilla.org), but it is possible to specify a subdomain. For example, by setting this parameter to addons, your link will point to the Mozilla Add-ons site (addons.mozilla.org). If the parameter is left unused, the subdomain will default to www. The parameter is unnamed, so no parameter name needs to be entered.

Usage

2

Custom link text

Custom text string that will show as link text. The parameter is unnamed, so no parameter name needs to be entered.

Note
  • If this parameter is left out, the link will use the other parameters to provide the link text.
Usage
  • {{mozlink|2}}

lang

Language (locale) code

It is possible to specify a Mozilla locale for the link, defined as a locale code (e.g. de for German or sv-SE for Swedish). If this parameter is left out, the link will be redirected at the target to either the locale of the user's Firefox browser, or (if there is no translation of that webpage for the user's locale) to the English default locale (en-US). An up-to-date list of Mozilla's web locale codes can be found at the Mozilla Web Localization Dashboard.

Usage
  • {{mozlink|lang=locale code}}

path

Path to page

To link to a webpage under the websites base address, you use the path parameter. To, e.g., link to the Firefox Developer Edition page under mozilla.org (www.mozilla.org/firefox/developer), you enter |path=firefox/developer.

The name you type in must be the same as the page's address path in the location bar. If you, for example, want to link to the login page for Bugzilla (bugzilla.mozilla.org/index.cgi?GoAheadAndLogIn=1), you need to enter |path=index.cgi?GoAheadAndLogIn=1 as the parameter value.

Usage
  • {{mozlink|path=path to page}}
