This template will take either the first argument, or a named parameter called URL. Note that if you pass it a URL with an equals sign you <strong>must</strong> use the named parameter. For safety, it would be recommended to always use the named parameter. Also beware that a pipe character will cause problems in the template call so you should check for a pipe in the URL before calling this template.
