Template:Infobox Tip/doc

From Homecoming Wiki

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox Tip (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Overview

This template is used to show an infobox at the top of a Tip mission article. In addition to showing the infobox, it also supplies the appropriate categories using a default sort key that strips off the first six characters (which should always be "Tip - "); thus, "Mission:Tip - Example" would sort under "E".

This template has special magic that ensures that it will only activate in the Mission: namespace. If an article in another namespace transcludes the article, the infobox and categories will automatically suppress. (Conversely, this means it can only be used in the Mission: namespace.)

Usage

Copy and paste to use:

{{Infobox Tip
|name=
|image=

|available=
|levelfrom=
