=== Step 2 - Create Image Map Template === | |||
1. Create image map, instructions [[Help:Wiki_University_Wikitext--Image_Maps|here]].<br> | |||
''Hint: When entering the name of the page for the county in the "Href" box, I usually copy and paste these county names so I don't misspell them and then have to "move" or rename the template)'' | |||
:a. You may see <font color="red">%2C</font> after the name of the county in the first line of code. | |||
:b. You must change the %2C to a <font color="red">comma</font>. <br>The wiki does not recognize the %2C.<br> | |||
2. Save the image coding as a template, for example: <font color="red"><nowiki>template:KS Allen County</nowiki></font>.<br> | |||
:a. Must have the word "template:" as part of the name of the image template. Note the colon. | |||
:b. First two capital letters are the [https://www.bls.gov/cew/cewedr10.htm two letter post office codes] for each state.<br> | |||
:c. Next is the name of the county for which you are creating the image map. <br> | |||
:d. Add the this line of code to the bottom of all the code. Make sure it follows immediately after "</imagemap>", no line brake.''This give the image map a category''.<br> | |||
::<font color="red"><nowiki><noinclude>[[Category:Image map templates]]</noinclude></nowiki></font> | |||
''Note the <font color="red">noinclude</font> just means that the text for the category will not show on the page even though it has been placed in a category.''<br> | |||
3.'''Limit size to 250px'''. See [[Help:Wiki_University_Wikitext--Image_Maps#Limit size of image map]]<br><br> | |||
4. Here is a completed template for Allen County, Kansas as an example: | |||
<div style="border:1px solid black; padding:1em> | |||
<nowiki><imagemap>Image:Allen,_Kansas.JPG|</nowiki><font color="red">250px</font><br> | |||

=== Step 3 - Put New Template on County Page === | |||
1.Place the clickable map under the heading '''Maps and Gazetteers''', and under first template, for example, under <nowiki>{{KS Maps Intro|Allen}}</nowiki> on the Allen County, Kansas page by typing:<br> | |||
::<font color="red"><nowiki>{{KS Neighboring Counties Intro|county={{County Name}}}}</nowiki></font><br> | |||
:''There may be a link to a image of the county under this template that looks like our image map. If so delete it as you will be replacing it with a clickable image map.''<br> | |||
2.In place of "County Name" enter the template name for the county you are adding the image map too, for example: <br> | |||
::<font color="red"><nowiki>{{KS Neighboring Counties Intro|county={{KS Allen County}}}}</nowiki></font><br><br> | |||
3.It will look like this, using Allen County, Kansas as an example: <br> | |||
<div style="border:1px solid black; padding:1em; width:400px"> | |||
<nowiki>=== Maps and Gazetteers ===</nowiki><br> | |||
<nowiki>{{KS Maps Intro|Allen}}</nowiki><br> | |||
<font color="red"><nowiki>{{KS Neighboring Counties Intro|county={{KS Allen County}}}}</nowiki></font><br></div> | |||
