I need help. how do I make it so, if no tool is specified, there is nothing that appears there? when editing a block and not adding a tool, it goes crazy and adds the full-size image of the block used above it as it's tool.--Kizzycocoa 10:43, 31 August 2010 (PDT)

Um, the last edit completely broke the tool section of the template.....--Kizzycocoa 08:44, 4 September 2010 (CDT)

nvm. working now.--Kizzycocoa 08:45, 4 September 2010 (CDT)

requirements

just gonna tell you a few more requirements, if you can add them in :3 "direct sunlight" (flowers) "next to water" (papyrus) "near water" (seed/crops) so, if you can add them, please do! =3 if not, nevermind ^^--Kizzycocoa 14:28, 5 September 2010 (CDT)

Add: Destroy Information

I've had a lot of people asking lately how to destroy things, and, when destroyed, whether you get the block back or not.

A good example of this is Pressure Plates and Stepping Stones. If destroyed by anything other than a pickaxe, you get nothing back...

Break the blocks under pressure plates to get them back.Toadbert

Two images?

Can we update this block so that it can show two images? I'm thinking for the step/double step, furnace/burning furnace pages.. could also be used for Redstone ore/glowing redstone ore, redstone torch on/off, redstone wire on/off and so on. There's already the facility to show two data values (as on the furnace page), would make sense to be able to have two images. DannyF1966 10:36, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Done! I also added a 36px image that I intend to be used as an image for when the block in in your inventory. The parameters are image2 and invimage, respectively. Farvei 21:22, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Also added a section for stackability of the item, parameter is stackable. Farvei 21:30, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Cool :-) Updated the Step page to use the new template. DannyF1966 22:27, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

New tool choices and text

Just to let everyone know, now when putting in a parameter for tool, the image (if there is one) will also be a link to the respective part of the Tools page, and will also give the name of the tool when you hover over the image. Also, I added a new option for tool, which is all, so if you put in |tool=all, the template will say All tools. It's for objects that don't get bonuses from any tool, like leaves and cloth.

Burn Time

Many things can be used as fuel in a furnace, and I think that an objects burn time should be represented in the template infobox. If this can be done,yay; if not, so be it. Thanks for your help. Mattokun 15:24, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Minimum Tool

Can we add an optional "minimum tool required" bit to the template? 'Minimum tool' meaning minimum tool required to successfully extract the block. User:ConMan8

Tool

Currently in the source, it states that for the tool space, I could put both "All tools" and "none". From my understanding, there is no blocks that has more than one preferred tools, let alone all tools. I think the "all tools" should be removed as "none" makes more sense. --Scykei 08:43, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Change the icons to my set of Generics?

I think that using diamond icons is a little too specific and may make people think you need an diamond tool to break it. Also, I think these would fit alot better. I made a set of Generic tool icons, here they are

Axe

Pickaxe

Spade

Hoe


Sword

I like it. Go ahead. Zaratustra 01:43, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
Done transitioning the icons. Green Cream Soda 23:10, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
Hm. Shouldn't we resort to using the proper tools when needed, though? Like, we could have an Iron Pickaxe with a + sign next to it on the Redstone Ore page. Just saying~ NeonJ 18:10, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Could somebody add a section for miscellaneous notes?

It would be useful to have a small section in the template for notes (e.g., adding this to cake: "Heals for Template:LifeHearts when used. Has 6 uses.") Chris3145 01:13, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Like that? Zaratustra 01:43, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
But, why? The infobox is for generic information. Notes and usage is more appropriate in the article itself. --JonTheMon 03:30, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Translation into french

Hello there, May I try to translate this infobox into french ? I don't know if i'll be able to do it but I'd like to try. I'll need to make many edit of the page as previews shouldn't work (as I need to publish the page to get the infobox to change). Thanks.--CarteRoutiere 20:52, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

I would wait with templates until we actually have a French language subdomain. While I know this makes some of the other page translation difficult, the French subdomain will do everything in french. This wiki will not recognize command level words in French. -- Wynthyst User Wynthyst sig icon talk 20:57, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
Ok, okay, didn't know you guys wanted to wait a subdomain for french articles. This is going to be great, thanks. (Are you a sysop btw ?) --CarteRoutiere 21:00, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
