::I use 1.7.x at The Gaiapedia on wikia, and I plan to expand that to our own server sometime. But the parserfunctions have allowed me to create templates that I could never create otherwise. Ifexist could be used to make the specified logo only display when it is there. Actually, the Google Analytics extension would be nice to see so that possibly wikis who use it could track the productivity of them listing on WikiIndex, Or externally embeding a logo so that it stays up to date or it's viewage on the page could be tracked to understand how much the page is viewed. | ::I use 1.7.x at The Gaiapedia on wikia, and I plan to expand that to our own server sometime.

::Templates call a function that calls another page, and parserfunctions call a function that handles the content. So efficiency wise parserfunctions are better than a if template. Also the Switch function can be used to create content on the template that would only appear for certain circumstances, such as special sections for different WikiEngines. Also parserfunctions code is a lot less messier than code using the if template.

::: I would like the ParserFunctions too, We should make a suggestion to [[John Stanton]] who manages the backend for this wiki. --[[Wolf Peuker|Peu]] | <small>[[User talk:Peu|talk]]</small> 03:53, 29 October 2006 (EST) | |||
