Template:IRC

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

{{IRC}} creates a link to an IRC channel on a custom server, or (by default) Mozilla's IMO server (irc.mozilla.org), under the irc:// protocol.

Parameters

There are 2 parameters, both unnamed, of which 1 is required and 1 is optional.

Syntax

The template's syntax is

• {{IRC|irc channel|irc domain address}}

Required parameter

1

IRC channel

For the template to work, you need to enter the name of the channel you want to link to. If you link to a channel on IMO, this is the only parameter you need to specify.

Note

• Do not include the number sign ("hash"). That is inserted automatically.

Usage

• {{IRC|irc channel}}

Optional parameter

2

IRC domain address

You can, optionally, enter a custom IRC server domain address to an external IRC service, as the 2nd parameter.

Note

• This parameter must be placed after the 1st parameter (the IRC channel name), or the link will break.

Usage

• {{IRC|irc domain address}}

Examples

Correct use

• {{IRC Full}}: links both to an IRC channel on IMO and to the webchat option on Mibbit.
