Template:Navbox/doc

The Template:Navbox is used to help viewers of Nitrome Wiki pages easily find their way around articles of similar interest. Since it is used on almost all pages, it is locked so that only sysops can edit the code. Any user, however, can discuss changes on the template's talk page and edit this code by visiting the documentation.

Use
The full navbox code that can be used is as follows. It should be the basic outline used on another template page to prevent confusion for other editors when they try to edit that particular page.

Definitions

 * Name defines the name of the template. (needed to make the little navbar at the top work)
 * Style refers to the overall style that the template should be done in.
 * Background is meant for the line colour, to be put in between the colon and the semicolon.
 * Width adjusts the width of the overall template. If "show/hide" links are used, it should be kept to 100%
 * Titlestyle allows editors to customize the appearance of the top bar where the template's title will go.
 * Background is for the background heading colour.
 * Color is for the colour of the title text.
 * Groupstyle customizes the groups in the template (categories that all pages should be organized in).
 * Background adjusts the background colour of the group categories.
 * Color changes the text colour.
 * Width will change how wide the groups boxes will be. The width will be given in %, where a bigger number means a wider width.
 * Font-size changes the size of the text for the groups, given in %.
 * Liststlye lets users change the style of the lists, which is where the links go. They can be customized the same way "Groupstyle" can, except for the width.
 * Title gives the text that will be the title of the template. It can be different from the template name if necessary.
