Template:Userboxtop
Userboxes
|
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
| toptext =
| align =
| left =

| toptextstyle =
| textcolor =
}}
{{userboxname1}}
{{userboxname2}}
{{userboxname3}}
{{userboxname4}}
{{...etc}}}
{{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–
#userboxes { display: none; }
