Revision as of 22:14, 2 April 2013
This Format does not like parameters
Well as you may have noticed that I made edits here to try to make parameters possible on this template. However when I added it to this template it ended up corrupting other userboxes that did not have parameters. so what I had to do is create a new template at Template:Usbkc to address the issue for now. If there anyway to make it possible here without that problem it would help out alot. Sawblade05 08:23, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
This template was originally created by User:Java7837 he also made a program to make userboxes with pictures see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Java7837/pictureuserboxcreator it is very helpful in producing userboxes which use pictures

Big error
Big error see
This user is a Chief Engineer in the United States Merchant Marine. | C/E |
versus

---|---|---|---|---|---|
{{Template:User Chief Engineer}} |
|
Usage |
This only seems to be effecting pages loading specifically pages listed under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Userboxes/Profession#Merchant_marine please fix this as soon as possible
--Java7837 15:45, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Actually look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Userboxes/Profession a good number of userboxes load ' instead of the picture they are supposed to load
--Java7837 15:52, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Though Wikipedia:Userboxes/Emoticons seems to be fine
--Java7837 16:32, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Userboxes/Zodiac also works fine
--Java7837 16:33, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
- Fixed. It was because the userbox was being transcluded like
{{user Chief Engineer|||||}}
. –Pomte 18:08, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
Another Big error
The current version has corrupted userboxes here at Wikipedia:Userboxes/WikiProjects plase fix show they all show.
Sawblade05 10:11, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
- FYI the error also shows on my Test Userbox page at User:Sawblade05/tempoaryWikipedia:Userboxes/WikiProjects You can use that page for testing. Sawblade05 10:20, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
- The bottom userboxes weren't showing because that page has a lot of userboxes. It's not particular useful either, being redundant to Wikipedia:WikiProject and Category:WikiProjects etc. No one should be browsing the list for userboxes because you have to actually look at the WikiProject first before joining and tagging yourself. –Pomte 10:29, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
Categories
Category:User templates
I don't know who added this page to this category but this category is only for userboxes, I am taking it out. -PatPeter 06:43, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
- I figured it out for you PatPeter, it was in the documentation at /doc. 67.175.105.209 20:22, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
- I placed it back in that category with | ]] as categorization so that this template is at least categorized.
Category Suppresion
{{#ifeq:{{{categories}}}|no||[[Category:Example|{{PAGENAME}}]]}}
We need to get this incorporated into the template. -PatPeter 01:58, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Can a parser function of this nature: {{#ifeq:{{{categories}}}|no||[[Category:Example|{{PAGENAME}}]]}} be made in this template to allow for the suppression of Wikipedian categories on pages such as Wikipedia:Userboxes/Health, Wikipedia:Userboxes/WikiProjects, and Wikipedia talk:Userboxes/New Userboxes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Java7837 (talk • contribs) 02:53, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Categroy Fixes
The way I see it, the category parameter can be simplified to simple {{usbk|template name|Category:your category}}
, with the parameter "category" not having anything fancy whatsoever, just {{{category}}}
.The UserboxerComplain/ubx
category=name
is as easy to type, and it is more intuitive (as in the case of {{tlx}} etc.) to have the second unnamed parameter deal with parameters for the actual userbox. –Pomte 20:44, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Parameters
I think I've solved the parameters issue. If anyone comes across a use of this template that still appears to be broken, let me know. JPG-GR (talk) 02:48, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, it appears it can only handle one parameter (called "param1") properly at this time. JPG-GR (talk) 03:06, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
What I did
Alright so basically I just solved all these problems. Any userbox that has the correct ParserFunctions extension from Category:Category suppression supporting templates will not categorize these pages in user categories, more in reply to #Category Suppresion. Before reverting please post here, I have this page watched. -Babelious 22:54, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
{{[[{{{1|{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}]]{{#if:{{{param1|}}}|{{!}}''{{{param1}}}''|}}{{#if:{{{param2|}}}|{{!}}''{{{param2}}}''|}}}} {{ #if: {{{nt|}}} | | {{!}} }}{{#if:{{{param2|}}}|{{{{{1|{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}|1={{{param1|}}}|2={{{param2}}}}}|{{#if:{{{param1|}}}|{{{{{1|{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}|1={{{param1}}}}}|{{{{{1|{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}}}}}}} {{ #if: {{{nt|}}} | {{clear}} | {{!}} }}[[Special:Whatlinkshere/{{{1|{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}|What links here]] {{#if: {{{category|}}} | <br />[[:Category:{{{category}}}]] | }} {{ #if: {{{nt|}}} | | {{!}}- }}
Alright I have no clue as to what all this means, but if some one could tell me which parts of these | are equal to <td> then we might me able to reincorporate some of this code back in. -Babelious 18:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Hopefully this makes it easier to read. -Babelious 18:47, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Parameters
Is it possible to make it support up to 10 parameters, just to be on the safer side? ~RayLast «Talk!» 18:44, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed. I need three for my userbox, and it's quite frustrating not being able to present it. Mononomic (talk) 00:10, 1 December 2008 (UTC)
- Yes. I need 5 for mine {{User:Xsanda/UserBoxes/Age|2000|9|11|Username|f}}
Happy Birthday | This user is 23 years old. In 83 days time, she will be 24. |
by Xsanda (visit my talk page) 11:04, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
- Agree As what they said but most of my userboxes take at least three params.--Clarkcj12 (talk) 18:45, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

parameters broken?
I added a template of mine to User:UBX/Userboxes/Seasonal and supplied the single named parameter (holiday) as described in the doco (|2=holiday=value). It doesn't work. What displays is the "default" configuration, so that others would believe that my template is broken. If you go to my template page itself and view the demo there, it is clear that it works fine. ⇔ ChristTrekker 16:01, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
Please fix template
Can someone fix the template so that the Transclutions aren't under the code but in a third column like it used to be be. As that looked a lot better than it currently does now.--Clarkcj12 (talk) 00:11, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
- "Looked better" is very subjective. With some longer template names and larger userboxes, the wider format ran into serious problems with small browser windows. With so much space being wasted it seems prudent to combine the textual information into the same area. ⇔ ChristTrekker 13:48, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
USBK
I know this sounds stupid, but what does this actually stand for?--Launchballer 19:02, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
- The userbox idea came from the German Wikipedia. The main use of the
{{usbk}}
template family is in userbox catalogues, such as Wikipedia:Userboxes/Computing; and the German for "catalogue" is "katalog", so I think it's USer Box Katalog. --Redrose64 (talk) 22:10, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
