This is a documentation subpage for Template:Helpbox. It contains usage information, categories and other content or metadata that is not part of the original template. |
This template allows a help-related navigation template to be set up relatively quickly by supplying it with one or more lists of links.
Usual syntax
{{Helpbox | name = <!-- or: | templatename = --> | title = <!-- or, if templatename used: | name = --> | group1 = | list1 = | group2 = | list2 = <!-- etc, to: --> | group20 = | list20 = }}
Parameters
Required
- title (or, if templatename used (see below), name)
- The template's title, centered at the top of the template.
- listn
- (i.e. list1, list2, etc.) The body of the template, usually a list of links. Format is inline, although the text can be entered on separate lines if the entire list is enclosed within
<div>...</div>
. At least one list parameter is required. Each listn may be preceded by a corresponding groupn parameter, if provided (see below). There is a limit of 20 lists/groups in a template.
Optional
- groupn
- (i.e. group1, group2, etc.) If specified, text appears in a header displayed above listn.
- first unnamed parameter
- Inline CSS for the template.
- name (or, if name used as above, templatename)
- The template's pagename, activating the inclusion of the V•T•E links in its bottom righthand corner. Template:Helpbox's pagename, for example, is "Helpbox".
