Adding image cards to a page

General considerations

• Start and end templates: Each card set needs the start template (Image cards/start) and the end template (Image cards/emd). Make sure to add the end template right after the last image card without a line-break. If you have a line break, you will see some unnecessary space after the last card.
• Card sizes: You can choose between medium (standard), small and large image cards. By default, standard cards are shown.
• Images or icons: You can choose to create image cards or icon cards. Icon cards are only available in the sizes small and medium. If you want to uses images, you need to upload them to your wiki first.

See below for a complete list of available settings (template parameters).
