[edit]
A few templates have been created, which when used together become a pretty neat looking navigation table. The WikiWriter is in charge of template making, but I thought I would add this to explain how they are created in case of editing.
Template | Code | Description |
---|---|---|
Navbox | {{Navbox|title=|template=|groups=|footer=}} |
Adds the frame for the navigation table
|
templates used in Navbox "groups=" area | ||
Navbox-odd and Navbox-even | {{Navbox-odd|group=|links=}} |
Use these in the "groups= " area of the Navbox templateAdds the groups and their links. The only difference between them is the background color behind the links (odd is white, even is gray). |
Navbox-header | {{Navbox-header|title=}} |
Use these also in the "groups= " area, to create new sections.
|
Example[edit]
{{Navbox|title=Navigation Table |template=Navbox|groups= {{Navbox-odd|group=Interesting links|links=[[Template:Navbox|]]}} {{Navbox-header|title=Filler section}} {{Navbox-odd|group=Group 1|links=[[Template:Navbox-odd|]] • [[Template:Navbox-even|]]}} {{Navbox-even|group=Group 2|links=[[Template:Navbox-header|]]}} |footer=See Also}}
Adding extra columns and cells[edit]
By default each row is just one group, but since this is still a table you can add columns and such. But this is a bit more complicated.
- When adding extra cells, it follows the normal template system, but you need to write
{{!}}
instead of normal|
vertical bars, else you break the template - You need to add
colspan=
to every Navbox-odd and Template:Navbox-even template if you decide add extra columns anywhere. This stretches out the "links" cell. - You need to add
class=navbox-group
and
class=navbox-odd
(orclass=navbox-even
) to the cells you have manually added, so the CSS can color it like the rest of the table.
- Here I add extra two cells to a row, a group and links
{{Navbox-odd|links=
!class="navbox-group"{{!}}Group title
{{!}}class="navbox-odd"{{!}}[[Links]]}}
- Here I add extra colspan to stretch the next row's link cell
{{Navbox-odd|colspan=3|links=}}
Template documentation (
)
- The above documentation is transcluded from Template:Navbox/help/doc.
- Editors can experiment in this template's sandbox
- Please add categories to the /doc subpage within
<includeonly>...</includeonly>
This is just explanation for how to use the Navbox templates
