The template design of Anqi CMS draws on the syntax of the Django template engine, which is a major highlight due to its flexibility.

{# 默认用法 #}
<li>
    <span>微信二维码</span>
    <span>
        <img src="{% contact with name="Qrcode" %}" />
    </span>
</li>

From this code snippet, we can see that,{% contact with name="Qrcode" %}This tag's main responsibility isReturns the URL of the QR code image. It does not directly generate a complete<img>tag, but rather uses its URL assrcThe value is embedded into the manual text you write<img>This is the key to its flexibility.

This means that althoughQrcodeThe tag itself does not provide a directaltAttribute parameters, but since you can fully control it in the template<img>The structure of the tag, so it addsaltText is perfectly feasible.

Delicately customizealtText attribute

    • Parameter value:Enter the QR code you want to usealtThe specific content of the text, for example: 'Follow the Anqi CMS official WeChat account to get the latest information.'
    • Note:Please enter the
  2. Invoke in the front-end template: After completing the background settings and saving, you can call this custom parameter in the website's frontend template file (usuallybash.html/footer.htmlor a specific page template).

    CombineQrcodeThe image URL output by the label and the one we createdQrcodeAltTextCustom parameters, you can build the complete<img>Tags:

    <li>
        <span>微信二维码</span>
        <span>
            <img src="{% contact with name="Qrcode" %}" alt="{% contact with name="QrcodeAltText" %}" />
        </span>
    </li>
