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. {{Gallery}}, 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 =
}}
{{userboxbottom}}
All of the parameters are optional.
Customizing
Detailed explanations of the parameters are below.
| Parameter | Valid values |
|---|---|
align
|
left, center, or right (default)
|
backgroundcolor
|
Any web color (name or #XXXXXX hex format). Defaults to #FFFFFF. |
bordercolor
|
Any web color (name or #XXXXXX hex format). Defaults to #99B3FF. |
extra-css
|
Allows you to provide additional CSS style information. |
textcolor
|
Any web color (name or #XXXXXX hex format). Defaults to #000000. |
toptext
|
Overrides the standard Userbox text and link. Can include wiki-markup. |
You may also insert breaks by using {{userboxbreak}}. See that template for details.
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; }
