Template:Image gallery

Template documentationview · edit · history · purge ]
This documentation is transcluded from Template:Image gallery/doc.


This template shows up to 30 images in an array. The number of images per row is based upon the size specified and the width of the screen.

This template is similar to {{Gallery}}, except it does not require a "File:" or "Image:" prefix for image names, and alt text is passed in the second unnamed parameter instead of in a named "altN=" parameter, whereas {{Gallery}} requires alt text to be prefixed.

Parameters edit

Required edit

|Image|Alt text|Caption
Specify one of these lines for each image. Image is the image name (without any File: or Image: prefix). Alt is the alt text, used by visually impaired readers; it typically has little in common with the caption (see en:WP:ALT). Caption is the caption; see en:WP:CAPTION. If no such lines are present, a gallery with a single question-mark image is produced. There is currently a limit of 30 such lines.

Optional edit

title
The gallery's title.
width
(default 180) Maximum width of each image.
height
(default 180) Maximum height of each image.
perrow
(default none) The number of gallery boxes per line.
noborder
(default no) Used to cancel the border surrounding the images.
whitebg
(default yes) Switch the background surrounding the images.
