Template:Userboxtop/doc

This template can be used to organize userboxes (or other user-page content) into a single column grouping.

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.

Usage

{{Userboxtop
| toptext         = 
| toptextstyle    = 
| 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

All parameters are optional.

Parameter	Description
toptext	(or the first positional parameter) Overrides the default header "Userboxes". Can include wiki-markup.
toptextstyle	Additional CSS code for the toptext.
align	(or the second positional parameter) left or right (default)
left	Left margin in CSS's ems. Defaults to 1.
backgroundcolor	Any web color (name or #XXXXXX hex format). Defaults to #FFFFFF.
bordercolor	Any web color (name or #XXXXXX hex format). Defaults to #99B3FF.
extra-css	Additional CSS code for the box itself.
textcolor	Any web color (name or #XXXXXX hex format). Defaults to #000000.

You may also insert breaks by using {{userboxbreak}}. See that template for details.

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; }
