{{Navigation/doc}} is a generic navigational template. The KISS principle was observed.

Usage


To apply this template, you can start by copy-and-pasting the following code and then provide arguments:

Blank

{{Navigation
| name     = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| header   = 
| category = <noinclude>]</noinclude>
| state    =
| body     = 
}}

Parameters


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.
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 parameter's contents.
body
The material contained by the template, usually a list or list of links. Format is inline.
Optional
color
Background color of the titlebar. NB Care/consensus needed when using this parameter as multiple navigational templates on one page using different titlebar colors is likely to look unpleasant.
category
The category or categories to which a page sporting the template will become a member.
state
Defaults to autocollapse. If set to collapsed, the navbox will always start out in a collapsed state.

Example


Code

{{Navigation
| name     = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| header   = ] of ]
| category = ]<noinclude>] ]</noinclude>
| state    = collapsed
| body     = ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]{{·}} ]
}}
