Usage[edit source]
General[edit source]
When one of the following examples is placed inside a given template, it adds navbar navigational functionality:
{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|mini=y}}
{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|plain=y}}
{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|fontstyle=color: green; font-style: italic;}}
{{subst:PAGENAME}}
will be substituted with the template's name when parsed by the servers. For example, {{navbar|Navbar/doc}}
gives:Font-size[edit source]
Font-size is 88% when used in a navbar, and 100% when nested in a navbox.
In the navbar, the weight is "normal"; when nested in navbox, it takes on the outer setting. The middot is bold. The |fontstyle=
parameter can be used to adjust font size as needed (e.g. to reduce font size even more when the template is used inside a block element with a large font size).
Examples[edit source]
Required parameters[edit source]
{{navbar|Template Name}}
– the template name is required.
Optional parameters[edit source]
Options | Parameters | Produces... |
---|---|---|
Basic | {{navbar|Template Name}} |
|
Different text | {{navbar|Template Name|text=This template:}} |
|
Without "This box:" text | {{navbar|Template Name|plain=y}} |
|
Short version | {{navbar|Template Name|mini=y}} |
|
With brackets | {{navbar|Template Name|brackets=y}} |
|
With font styling examples (span) | {{navbar|Template Name|fontstyle=color: green; font-style: italic;}} |
|
With whole-template styling examples (div) | {{navbar|Template Name|style=float:right; background: Beige; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid;}} |
Deprecated parameters[edit source]
The miniv=y
, viewplain=y
, nodiv=y
and fontcolor=
parameters have been deprecated. To implement the view-only version, use the {{v}}
or {{view}}
templates instead.
Notes[edit source]
Navbar is contained within a <div>...</div>
in order to accommodate a horizontal unnumbered list. This means it cannot be placed inside a <span>...</span>
or other inline element, because the HTML Tidy extension will 'fix' situations where it finds block elements inside inline elements.
Prepackaged[edit source]
