Template:InfoBox: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 17:14, 28 March 2026

This template and its subtemplates can be combined and used as a metatemplate for other InfoBox templates. It can also be used to easily create custom InfoBoxes if needed.

For detailed documentation on each of the sub-templates, follow their respective links under the See also section at the bottom of this page.

Example:

{{InfoBox|header-color = #ececec|header-text-color = black
| chronology = {{InfoBox/Chronology|Previous|[[The links of this chronology table are intentionally broken|Link]]|Next}}
| main =
{{InfoBox/MainHeader|Main Header}}
{{InfoBox/Image|Detective Conan Anime Logo.png|caption=Japanese [[Detective Conan]] logo}}
{{InfoBox/Section|Section 1|content =
{{InfoBox/LabeledRow|Label|Some information |border-top = none}}
{{InfoBox/CollapsibleRow|Expand this...|...to read more information}}
{{InfoBox/Item|Some final information}}
}} <!-- End of Section 1 -->
}}

Results in:
