Template talk:Crafting usage

Documentation?
While I'm sure this is doing something awesome, without documentation it makes entire sections of multiple articles basically uneditable.

… Where are the recipes coming from?

 * It uses DPL to pull the recipes from the pages they originate from. I'll document all this once I've got it all finalised. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 05:23, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Continue parameter
I cannot seem to get the continue parameter to work. Check my sandbox and you will see what I mean. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? --KnightMiner (talk 15:01, 5 March 2014 (UTC)


 * I forgot to copy over the code from my local version. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 06:01, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Category parameter
So... the parameter  is not working. Would changing it to an "if statement" to override  instead of an "or statement" work to fix it?

 * The category parameter works fine. If you're trying to use it for the recipe type, that won't work because it's not designed for that. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 23:25, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * I could not even get it to work with  --KnightMiner ( talk &#124; contribs ) 23:27, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Okay, take that back, I can get it to work with that, provided I also provide  --KnightMiner ( talk &#124; contribs ) 23:30, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, because is required unless the page name happens to be the same as what you were going to use.
 * I think you're misunderstanding what this template does. It doesn't just blindly list the recipes in a category, it looks at all the templates on the pages in the category and finds ones that contain particular ingredients (the ones in ).
 * For example:  finds all the recipes in that category that use sticks as an ingredient.

 * Well, then I guess I will just have to reverse engineer the code, and write the other from that. Would it be better in the same module (like grid and grid/crafting table) or separate modules? --KnightMiner ( talk &#124; contribs ) 23:42, 25 May 2014 (UTC)


 * I'll be making a separate module. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 23:52, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Done. –Matt ᐸ Talk Contribs ⎜ 00:14, 26 May 2014 (UTC)


 * It does not need a template now, does it? Since we can just #invoke on the Crafting sub-pages. --KnightMiner ( talk &#124; contribs ) 00:38, 26 May 2014 (UTC)


 * I didn't bother with a template since it's just going to be used on one page and probably never going to be edited again. –Matt ᐸ <small style=display:inline-block;line-height:9px;vertical-align:-3px>Talk Contribs ⎜ 00:55, 26 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Should I head around getting the others to work, or can a bot do that? --KnightMiner</b> ( talk &#124; contribs ) 01:17, 26 May 2014 (UTC)


 * A bot can do that. We should decide the categories first too. –Matt ᐸ <small style=display:inline-block;line-height:9px;vertical-align:-3px>Talk Contribs ⎜ 01:42, 26 May 2014 (UTC)

Some recent trouble
, I was looking at Category:Empty_crafting_usage, and noticed two pages that shouldn't have been empty crafting usge. I was hoping you could shed some light on this:

Would you be able to identify why, in Coal (see also Special:Diff/1043827) why: comes up empty, but: is fine?

Also in Lingering Potion (see also Special:Diff/1043829) why: and come up empty, but: is fine? – Sealbudsman <span style="transform: rotate(-16deg); display: inline-block; top: -1px; position: relative;">talk/contr 20:36, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

Also is there some way to qualify the template on Lingering Potion, so it doesn't have that huge list of ingredients/results we see now? I'm almost sure it wasn't like that a little while ago. – Sealbudsman <span style="transform: rotate(-16deg); display: inline-block; top: -1px; position: relative;">talk/contr 20:39, 12 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Fixed, only the category for the last item was being queried (which doesn't exist in these cases). –Majr ᐸ <small style=display:inline-block;line-height:9px;vertical-align:-3px>Talk Contribs 04:52, 13 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Great, thanks! – Sealbudsman <span style="transform: rotate(-16deg); display: inline-block; top: -1px; position: relative;">talk/contr 05:25, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

Coal
The coal page has "Block of coal revision 1" and I have no idea where it comes from. Can someone please remove that? Fabian42 (talk) 22:26, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
