This template is used on approximately 9,640,000 pages, or roughly 67436% of all pages ./sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage . The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
This template uses Lua :
Usage {{str right |<string>|<offset>}} Gives the characters from <offset> to the end of the string.
A negative <offset> is treated the same as zero, which simply returns the original string.
If <offset> is longer than <string> then this returns an empty string.
If <offset> is invalid, empty or undefined, this template goes berserk, so please avoid.
Examples {{str right |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet |10}} → m dolor sit amet{{str right |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet |1}} → orem ipsum dolor sit amet{{str right |Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet |0}} → Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet{{str right |123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.123456789.1 |99}} → .1{{str right |#123456|1}} → 123456{{str right |#123|1}} → 123
