Misplaced Pages

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Delusion23 (talk | contribs) at 12:31, 6 April 2013 (deprecated, no need for interwiki links). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Navigation. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Template:Navigation is deprecated. Please use Template:Navbox instead.

{{Navigation/doc}} is a generic navigational template.

Blank syntax (basic)

{{Navbox
|name  = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
|title = 
|body  = 
}}

Parameters

Deprecated parameter names are given in parentheses.

Mandatory

name

(or templateName) The name of the template, which is needed for the "v · t · e" (i.e. "view · talk · edit") links to work properly on the pages where the template is used. 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. Format is inline.

Optional

titlestyle

Style/s to apply to titlebar; usually a background color (i.e. titlestyle = background:color).
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.

bodystyle or style

Any CSS styling to add to the body, e.g. "text-align:left;" to left-align the body's content in place of its default center alignment.

category

The category or categories to which a page transcluding the template will become a member. Place <includeonly> ...... </includeonly> either side of the category or categories to ensure the template itself isn't made a member. Use of this parameter is discouraged; when editing a page on which the template is transcluded, no mention of the category or categories added by this parameter is apparent.

Example

Code

{{Navbox
|name  = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
|title = ] of ]
|body  =
]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} 
]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]
}}
