Template:Infobox
Description[edit source]
This is a template approach to building custom infoboxes (e.g. Template:Character infobox). There are several sub-templates that are used.
- Required Templates to create infobox
- Infobox Parts
Excluding the row-data template, the naming of the templates follows the structure of the Wikipedia Infobox template, which a visual guide can be found here - w:Template:Infobox.
Usage[edit source]
Start/End[edit source]
To use these infobox templates, keep in mind that they must all include the start and end templates to work correctly. The other templates are put between these two.
{{Infobox/start}}
...content
{{Infobox/end}}
Title, Above, Header, Subheader, Below, Image[edit source]
All only take a single argument, which is the content to be displayed. For example, to get title:
{{Infobox/title|Title text here}}
Image follows a similar format, but you do need to provide it with the full file link (e.g. [[File:<filename>]].
line[edit source]
No arguments, simply renders an hr line element when used.
{{Infobox/line}}
row-data[edit source]
This is where this infobox differs. This template creates a row in the infobox, but also has the ability to split the row up to 4 sections if desired.
| # of Sections | Example Template |
|---|---|
| 1 section only (Full row) | {{Infobox/row-data|content here}}
|
| 2 sections (e.g. For the standard label/data row) | {{Infobox/row-data
|sections=2
|left=
|right=
}}
|
| 3 sections (e.g. For next/label/previous rows) | {{Infobox/row-data
|sections=3
|left=
|mid=
|right=
}}
|
| 4 sections | {{Infobox/row-data
|sections=4
|left=
|midLeft=
|midRight=
|right=
}}
|
