Template:Userboxtop/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:Userboxtop (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page |
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 = | left = | 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–
table.userboxes { display: none; }
