Template usage

  • use like
    • {{Searchnews}} to display all news titles (10 articles by default)
    • {{Searchnews|articlecount=1}} to display most recent 1 news article.
    • {{Searchnews|articlecount=5|find=pci}} to search for pci (case insensitive).
    • {{Searchnews|articlecount=5|find=pci|find1=STEMI}} to search for pci OR STEMI (case insensitive).
    • {{Searchnews|articlecount=5|find=pci|find1=\bMI\b}} to search for pci OR MI (case insensitive, MI occuring as a whole word).

Notes on usage

  1. First search term (parameter 'find') is required --
    • Can use as many additional search terms (find1, find2, ... find#)
    • All search terms are joined by OR statement.
  2. Article results are sorted by most recent, according to date passed to Template:Newsarticle
  3. All searches are case-insensitive. Can specify word-breaks using \b (end-of-word)
  4. Default title display is set by Template:Newsarticle.dplsearch
  5. Default number of articles is 10
  6. The entire contents of the news article are NOT searched -- search occurs within the contents of page title (per mediawiki), the summary term of the Newsarticle template, and the contents of keywords optionally passed to Template:Newsarticle
