Template:2016 USL Eastern Conference table/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:2016 USL Eastern Conference table.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage[edit]

This template is designed to collect information, which is used in several articles, in one location. The 2016 USL season tables are shown on the overall season article, as well as the articles for each conference, if not other pages as well. This template should replace the need to update the same information on several articles.

In article[edit]

To add this table to an article, type {{2016 USL Eastern Conference table}}.

Display options[edit]

Smaller table[edit]

If a smaller displayed table is desired, the parameter |only_pld_pts= can be defined in the template call to display only the position, team, games played, and points columns. This display may be desired if displaying both conference tables side-by-side. Valid values of |only_pld_pts= to display a truncated table are 1, yes, y, true, and t.

For example:

What you type

{{2016 USL Eastern Conference table|only_pld_pts=true}}

What you see

Pos	Team v t e	Pld	Pts
1	New York Red Bulls II (C, X)	30	69
2	Louisville City FC	30	60
3	FC Cincinnati	30	56
4	Rochester Rhinos	30	51
5	Charlotte Independence	30	50
6	Charleston Battery	30	48
7	Richmond Kickers	30	45
8	Orlando City B	30	35

Display on team articles[edit]

Smaller sections of the table can be placed in team articles |showteam= and |show_limit= parameters. Use the abbreviation for the team that is used in the code, e.g. CHB

for Charleston Battery, and the number of teams you wish to display – note that even numbers will be increased to an odd number to show symmetry in the table. For example:

What you type

{{2016 USL Eastern Conference table|showteam=CHB|show_limit=6}}

What you see

Pos	Team v t e	Pld	W	D	L	GF	GA	GD	Pts	Qualification
3	FC Cincinnati	30	16	8	6	41	27	+14	56	Conference Playoffs
