Documentation
This template is used for creating links to download pages of mods, utilities, and other resources at particular sites (with a mouse-over tooltip showing where you'll be downloading from), for use in mod and utility testing lists. The supported options are detailed below. Feel free to add more (should be multi-author sites), or to correct the URL coding if a site changes its structure, or to remove one if a site sadly goes down permanently. Various mod archives are already gone: PlanetElderScrolls.GameSpy.com, ElricM.com, the archive part of Rethan-Manor.net, Morrowind.UFRealms.net, GHFMod.us, and many more.

The pageID you supply is the case-sensitive mod name right before the .htm at the end of the URL, e.g. Domehome in http://lovkullen.net/Emma/Domehome.htm

Usage
Example mod-testing list entry with the template used to provide two offsite download-page links:
* ''Better Clothes'' 1.1 by Psychodog Studios {{dlmod|mmh|21-14097}}{{dlmod|nexus|42262}} – <strong>Working, and highly recommended</strong>. Detailed and more natural-looking replacements for almost all the vanilla clothing in the game.
Renders as:
- Better Clothes 1.1 by Psychodog Studios M N – Working, and highly recommended. Detailed and more natural-looking replacements for almost all the vanilla clothing in the game.
Note that the back-to-back instances of {{dlmod}}
need not be separated by a space; a thin space is included in the template's code to keep the link icon of the first instance from butting up against the link letter of the second.
