Block-style
Block style prevents text from wrapping underneath the icon. Use gap to control the spacing between icon and text.
| Example | Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|---|
| Block-style | {{ItemIcon|name=Teleportation Gloves|size=40|show_name=true|show_rarity=true|block=yes}} | |
| With gap | {{ItemIcon|name=Teleportation Gloves|size=40|show_name=true|show_rarity=true|block=yes|gap=8}} |
Word-ending links
Common endings may be appended right after the template, just like regular links.
| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
{{ItemIcon|name=Giant Healing Potion|show_name=true|show_rarity=true}}s | Giant Healing Potions |
{{ItemIcon|name=Ring of Intelligence|show_name=true|show_rarity=true}}s | Ring of Intelligences |
UID search
Specifying the uid parameter allows for picking a specific item among a number of different items with the same name. Note that you must provide the name of the item for it to display properly.
* {{ItemIcon|name=Leather Armour|show_name=true}}
* {{ItemIcon|name=Leather Armour|uid=ARM_Leather_Body|show_name=true}}
* {{ItemIcon|name=Leather Armour|uid=ARM_Unique_Braccus|show_name=true}}

Troubleshooting
Icon does not show up
- Check that the name is provided correctly.
- Refer to the template you are using. Template:ItemIcon requires the name to be provided as the
name=parameter, while other templates might use anonymous parameters.
- Check that the page exists
- The page must exist and use Template:ItemPage, Template:ArmorPage, Template:WeaponPage, or Template:ItemIcon Insert. Technically, you could also insert directly into the
ItemsCargo table, but please don't do that without good reason. - Also make sure that the item is spelled correctly. ItemIcon is unaware of redirects, which can cause a missing icon link when the page link works fine.
- Check that the parameters are passed to the page-generating templates
- ItemIcon pulls from the page-generating template parameters, particularly
rarity,image, andicon. Eitherimageoriconneeds to be set for an icon to show.
- Try doing a null edit on the page.
- The ItemIcon template was introduced after the page-generating templates. This means that information won't be inserted into the Cargo table until the pages that use the page-generating templates are edited. You can do a null edit to forcibly insert information into the table. This is an edit where you change nothing. It will not show up in the page's edit history or your contribution page, but it will refresh the page and, if applicable, insert the info needed into the table.
- Ask on Discord
- If none of the above steps work, ask on the Discord and someone might be able to help solve the problem.
