Purpose[edit source]
When Record Search changed from beta to production, articles that had used this template were all updated with a single edit to this template.
Usage[edit source]
This template can be used to link to specific FamilySearch Historical Record Collections available for search. It can take three parameters
- The reference for the collection optional
- If omitted the URL for the site will be displayed
- The text to be displayed in the link. optional
- If omitted the reference number will be displayed instead.
- access= optional named parameter. If the parameter is omitted it will default to the correct output for searchable collections
- Used for linking to a Browse image only collection. This is done by using access=browse.
- Used for linking to a specific browsing waypoint within a collection. This is done by using access=waypoint.
