Template:Boxboxtop

    From BelieveTheSign
    Userboxes

    Purpose

    To collect images or userboxes into a single column grouping easily. This template is not just for userboxes; it is also an efficient way of creating a column of images to run along the side of an article. Template:Tl, by contrast, creates rows of images and is used when the images should not run alongside the text but rather should serve as a break in the text.

    Usage

    {{userboxtop
    | align = 
    | backgroundcolor = 
    | bordercolor = 
    | extra-css =
    | textcolor = 
    | toptext = 
    }}
    
    [userboxes]
    
    {{userboxbottom}}

    All of the parameters are optional.

    Hiding userboxes

    You can hide userboxes which utilize this (as well as a few other) forms of template-based userbox organization. Simply edit your userspace CSS override (for example, monobook.css for the Monobook skin) and add the following–

    #userboxes { display: none; }
