This template is made to be used with the {{Navbox}} template

This template is a single row with a lighter background than {{Navbox-odd}}

  • title= The name of the group header

Creating Navigation tables[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
  • "title=" adds the first header
  • "template=" Name of the template, case sensitive! (skip the "Template:" part)
  • "groups=" is for everything in between
  • "footer=" for adding extra related links at the bottom of the 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 template
Adds 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 (or class=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=}}
