Template:Userboxtop/doc

Jump to navigation Jump to search

This template can be used to collect images or userboxes into a single column grouping easily.

Please do not use this in articles: for historic reasons this template uses different rules for floating alongside other templates and this will lead to unpredictable results. If you need to stack objects in an article for some reason, use {{stack}}. This template will add pages in the main namespace to category:articles incorrectly using userbox templates if used there.

Usage

{{ userboxtop
| toptext         = 
| align           = 
| left            = 
| backgroundcolor = 
| bordercolor     = 
| extra-css       =
| textcolor       = 
}}

{{userboxname1}}
{{userboxname2}}
{{userboxname3}}
{{userboxname4}}
{{...etc}}}

{{userboxbottom}}

Note that {{userboxbottom}} must be separated from the last userbox by a newline. In the absence of a newline, other text on the page may appear inside the confines of the userbox area.

Parameters

Detailed explanations of the parameters are below. All of the parameters are optional.

Parameter Valid values
toptext (or the first positional parameter) Overrides the standard "Userboxes" text and link. Can include wiki-markup.

Hiding userboxes

You can hide userboxes which use this (as well as a few other) forms of template-based userbox organization. Simply go to Special:Mypage/skin.css, which redirects to your current skin's CSS file, and add the following–

table.userboxes { display: none; }
