Template:Navigation
From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
{{Navigation}} is a generic navigational template.
Contents |
[edit] Blank
{{Navigation
| name = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| title =
| body =
}}
[edit] Parameters
[edit] Mandatory
- name (or templateName)
- The name of the template, which is needed for the "view · talk · edit" links to work properly on all of the pages where the template is used on. You can enter
{{subst:PAGENAME}}for this value as a shortcut. - title (or header)
- Text that appears centered in the titlebar (the top bar). Usually this is the template's topic, i.e. a succinct description of the body contents.
- body
- The material contained by the template, usually a list or list of links. Use | to separate links. It is not possible to include a pipe ("|") in the contents as this symbol is used to separate parameters. Format is inline.
[edit] Optional
- color
- Header color. Default is #efefef. Use of this parameter is discouraged. Where it is used, care and consensus are needed as multiple navigational templates on one page with different titlebar colors will probably look unpleasant.
- cat (or category)
- The category or categories to which a page sporting the template will become a member.
[edit] Auto collapse logic
A navbox will start out collapsed if there are 4 or more tables on the same page that is implemented with NavFrame. For the technical minded, see MediaWiki:Common.js.
See also Wikipedia:NavFrame.
