==Description==
Welcome to the Infobox documentation.
This template is a sample infobox, to aid in the creation of new infoboxes.
 
Recommended usage: copy the template code to a new template page, and edit it there.
 
===Infobox and template background===
See [[Help:Templates]], [[Help:Infobox]] and [[Help:Tables]] for some background on how templates and infoboxes work.
 
===Building blocks===
The infobox is made of the following basic building blocks:
 
* Overall table class: <code>class="wikia-infobox"</code>
* Table heading cell class: <code>class="wikia-infobox-header"</code>
* Use row header marks ("<code>!</code>") for row title cells ''(and "<code>|</code>" for normal cells)''
* Section separator line: give the header below it a wrapping <code>div</code> with <code>class="wikia-infobox-section-header"</code>
* Image cell class: <code>class="wikia-infobox-image"</code>
* Image caption cell class: <code>class="wikia-infobox-caption"</code>
 
===Other notes===
* The Title, First, Second, and Third rows show ''"Unknown"'' if their values are not specified.
* The Image, Imagecaption, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth rows won't show up if their values are not specified: they are each completely enclosed in an 'if' statement.
 
==Syntax==
</pre></div>
{{infobox
| title =
| image = [e.g. "Example.jpg"]
| imagewidth = [e.g. "150"] [default: 210 pixels]
| imagecaption =
| first =
| second =
| third =
| fourth =
| fifth =
| sixth =
}}
</divpre>
 
==Samples==
<pre>
{{infobox
| title = A pretty flower
| image = Example.jpg
| imagewidth = 250100
| imagecaption = Floweris flowerum

When creating an Infobox, always format the wikitext as follows:
<div class="toccolours mw-collapsible mw-collapsed">
Infobox wikitext
<div class="mw-collapsible-content"><pre>
{{infobox
| title = A pretty flower
| BackColor = [HEX or RGB Color]
| image = Example.jpg
| BoxTitle = ''[Page Title]''
| imagewidth = 100
| image = File:[Image]
| imagecaption = Floweris flowerum
| imagewidth = 250
| first = Pink and green
| caption = [Caption]
| second = Outdoors
| Row1Title = [Row 1 Title]
| fourth = Annual
| Row1Info = [Info]
| Row2Title = [Row 2 Title]
| Row2Info = [Info]
| Row3Title = [Row 3 Title]
| Row3Info = [Info]
| Row4Title = [Row 4 Title]
| Row4Info = [Info]
| Row5Title = [Row 5 Title]
| Row5Info = [Info]
| Row6Title = [Row 6 Title]
| Row6Info = [Info]
| Row7Title = [Row 7 Title]
| Row7Info = [Info]
| Row8Title = [Row 8 Title]
| Row8Info = [Info]
| Row9Title = [Row 9 Title]
| Row9Info = [Info]
| Row10Title = [Row 10 Title]
| Row10Info = [Info]
}}
</pre></div>
</div>
This allows programs that don't use the MediaWiki API to read Infobox contents.

==Notes==
* The "BackColor" attribute can be omitted. It will default to IPoly green.
* You cannot use more than ten rows.
* "imagewidth" should usually be left at 250px, but can be changed if necessary.
