Template:Sidebar

The following template description is not displayed when the template is inserted in an article.

Goal

This is a template used by right side navigation box templates used for navigating article series and otherwise related articles.

Usage

{{sidebar
| name         = {{subst:PAGENAME}}
| outertitle   = 
| topimage     = 
| pretitle     = 
| title        = 
| image        = 
| caption      = 
| above        = 

| headingstyle = 
| contentstyle = 

| heading1     = 
| content1     = 

| heading2     = 
| content2     = 

| heading3     = 
| content3     = 
...
| heading35    = 
| content35    = 

| below        = 

| notemplate   =
}}

The only two mandatory parameters are name (only if title is set) and content1.

Most commonly used parameters

outertitle

An title to show above the navbox.

topimage

An image to use on the right side, in full wiki code, for example [[File:Thumbs up 32px.png|32px|link=|alt=]].

pretitle

Subtitle to be shown above the title, but below a top image.

title

Title to be shown below a top image.

image

caption

heading(n)

0-35 section headings

content(n)

1-35 content sections. At least one content section must be used.

below

Optional text to show below the group/list section.

notemplate

This is a parameter for the navbar. If set to 1, then the navbar links will exclude the Template: part.
