Every once and a while, to avoid clutter on my talk page, I will move the messages to the archive.


Hi! This is Hieifireshadow, and I was wondering how you got those nifty little sidebar things on your user page. I really like them and I want to learn how to put them up. :D

~HFS

You mean the "About me" section? Well, to do that, type in <div class="userbox">. Then, type in the templates about you. For example, {{User Male}}, {{User Smart}}, and {{User Glasses}}. Then, type in </div>.
Here is what the example sidebar should look:
034.png This user identifies as male.
480.png This user is intelligent.
Max Glasses.png This user wears glasses.

And here is what the wikicode to make it was:
<div class="userbox">
{{User Male}}
{{User Smart}}
{{User Glasses}} </div>

There are lots of templates to chose from. You put the tags on by typing in {{The name of the template}} You can find the templates here. Some templates, such as {{User Favorite}}, require you to specify information, separated by |. For example, if your favorite Pokémon is Uxie, you would type {{User Favorite|480|Uxie}} and get

480.png This user's favorite Pokémon is Uxie.

Thanks a lot, Nocti! ^^ I'm really fond of those things; soon enough, I think there'll be about a million on my page. XD Thanks again.

That's bad...you don't think it's the same guy, do you...? -Politoed666 21:02, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Well i'm ready for him Bring it on!

I only hope there are some admins on right now...-Politoed666 21:07, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
I don't think so. I haven't seen any edits by admins for a while, and TTEchidna hasn't responded to my warning message on his talk page. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | FunFile:224MS.gif 21:08, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

I bet that he has a million windows open and he is going to save tem all at once --Theryguy512

Wow....you're really taking what i said about the million windows to the extreme. I was just joking when i said that P.S. Do ya think that we'll get admin rights for telling them?

Hey, again.

Well, I have another problem. I can't get the template "User Loves" or "User Region" to work on the sidebar type thing. The Absol thing only shows up when I copy and paste from the "User Loves" page. I took that code and filled it with Absol, but it's really big and at the bottom now. I think the easiest way to understand is to look at my user page. I'm going to be leaving soon (won't be back til tomorrow or so), so I might or might not be able to fix it as soon as a message is sent, but I will fix it eventually because I have a weird form of OCD. XD

Anyways, thanks for the help before (I have, like, 30 templates on there now)!

~HFS

Thanks!

Hey, I have everything fixed now. :D Thanks a lot!
