Installation

  1. Copy {{Navbox}}m to your wiki.
  2. Copy {{Navbox}} to your wiki.
  3. Copy the contents of Gadget - navbox.css to your wiki's MediaWiki:Common.css .
  4. Done!

Manual

See {{Navbox}} for full documentation. Please copy this documentation along with the template code if installing to your wiki!

Example navboxes

  • {{Example Navbox 1}} - a one-row navbox without any group labels, starting collapsed
  • {{Example Navbox 2}} - a one-row navbox without any group labels, starting expanded (uncollapsed)
  • {{Example Navbox 3}} - a two-row navbox with group labels, starting collapsed
  • {{Example Navbox 4}} - a two-row navbox with group labels, starting expanded (uncollapsed)
  • {{Example Navbox 5}} - a two-row navbox where the second row is actually a sub-navbox and starts out collapsed, while the rest of the navbox is expanded

Troubleshooting

  • I can't see my navboxes on mobile!
    • Head to your MediaWiki:Common.css and remove all the code underneath @720 variable in /* Mobile adjustments */ then refresh your cache.
