In my template I have a {{{parameter|}}} that holds a URL. Now I want to build some button around this URL. Thus the URL should go after href=. The MediaWiki parser disturbs that plan because it turns the URL into a clickable link automatically.
How can I prevent the parser doing this?
PS: With a URL itself I can do
<nowiki>http://url.com</nowiki>but doing this with the parameter
<nowiki>{{{parameter|}}}</nowiki> only gives me {{{parameter|}}}
Yes, I think I could do that with some string functions. Are you sure it would work then?
You can place the URL in a data attribute, and then it won't be turned into a URL.
<div data-test="http://example.com"></div>
I finally found a solution. At least for my case (I work with SemanticMediaWiki). The trick is to add #nowiki to the query.
This is my final code for my button:
<html><a href="</html>{{#show:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|?URL-Property#nowiki}}<html>" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary">Click here</a></html>
