MediaWiki: automatically adding a template

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

MediaWiki: automatically adding a template

Post by Troy Martin »

Is there a way to automatically add a template to the bottom of a page? Say, I have a template called Template:NavUniverse. I want it to be shown at the bottom of every article on the wiki. Is this possible?

Thanks,
Troy

PS: I'm hosted on Wikia, BTW.

If you want to do what I think you want to do just use Special:Allpages. I guess the only downside to that is that it doesn't do pages outside the main namespace (last I checked anyway)...

What I want is for a template to be automatically inserted at the bottom of EVERY article on the wiki.

Ah, it's a template. I read "Category:NavUniverse". Whoops!
