{{tlx|Navbar}} provides a small "view '''·''' talk '''·''' edit" navigation bar. It is primarily used for content-heavy templates and other transcluded content blocks, so that the content inside the template or block is more easily editable {{lang|la|in situ}} where it was found, without having track it down through examining transclusion code.  {{tnull|Navbar}}'s extremely high use rate and consequent protection level are because it is integrated as a feature into numerous [[WP:NAVBOX|navigation box]] and [[WP:INFOBOX|infobox]] templates used in millions of articles. It is also a regular feature of many internal-use templates and tables of the Wikipedia, Help, and Template [[WP:NAMESPACE|namespaces]].
 
==Usage==
===General===
===General===
Copyable examples when inside a given [[Wikipedia:Navigation templates|template]] adds navbar navigational functionality:
When one of the following examples is placed inside a given [[Wikipedia:Navigation templates|template]] (or block of content used for [[Wikipedia:Transclusion#Selective transclusion|selective transclusion]]), it adds basic navbar navigational functionality:
:<tt><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|mini=1}}</nowiki></tt>  
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|mini=y}}</syntaxhighlight>
:<tt><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|plain=1}}</nowiki></tt>  
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|plain=y}}</syntaxhighlight>
:<tt><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|mini=1|nodiv=1}}</nowiki></tt>  
:<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|fontstyle=color: green; font-style: italic;}}</syntaxhighlight>
:<tt><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|plain=1|nodiv=1}}</nowiki></tt>  
 
:<tt><nowiki>{{navbar|{{subst:PAGENAME}}|fontstyle=color:green}}</nowiki></tt>  
The <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{subst:PAGENAME}}</syntaxhighlight> will be [[WP:SUBST|substituted]] with the page name of the real location of the content when parsed by the servers. For example, <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{navbar|Navbar/doc}}</syntaxhighlight> gives:<br />{{navbar|Navbar/doc}}
 
If the page is moved or renamed the substituted text will need to be updated accordingly. Alternatively, you can use <code>{{mfl|params|self}}</code> instead of <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{subst:PAGENAME}}</syntaxhighlight> to keep track of the current location of the transcluded page:


:The <code><nowiki>{{subst:PAGENAME}}</nowiki></code> will be substituted with the template's name when parsed by the servers.
: <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline>{{navbar|{{#invoke:params|self}}|mini=...|plain=...|...}}</syntaxhighlight>
:<nowiki>{{navbar|navbar/doc}}</nowiki> gives: {{navbar|navbar/doc}}


=== Deprecated parameters ===
When used in content that is selectively transcluded but which is also used as-is in its original location, this template should be wrapped in {{xtag|includeonly|p}} markup, so that it only appears when transcluded.
The <tt>miniv=1</tt>, <tt>viewplain=1</tt> and <tt>fontcolor=</tt> parameters have been deprecated. To use the view-only version, use the {{tlx|v}} or {{tlx|view}} templates instead.


== Examples ==
===Font size and weight ===
The font-size is 88% when used in a topical navbar template or in plain text, and 100% when nested in a navbox or infobox (because those templates' text size is already reduced; the "100%" is relative to the surrounding template's own content, not that of the entire page). The {{para|fontstyle}} parameter can be used to adjust the font size as needed (e.g. to reduce font size even more when the template is used inside a block element with a large font size). Do not abuse this to make excessively small text (i.e. less than 85% of the normal page text), since that causes [[MOS:SMALLTEXT|accessibility problems]] for many readers.
 
In a topical navbar, the weight is "normal"; when nested in a navbox or infobox, it inherits the style of the surrounding content. The middot bullets are bold for better visibility.
 
=== Block level element ===
The template generates block-level markup with {{tag|div}} tags, and therefore, any surrounding markup cannot include {{tag|span}} tags, which would cause a [[Special:LintErrors/misc-tidy-replacement-issues|div-span-flip]] lint error.

Note that to show the history, move, and watchlist links, {{para|template}} needs to be set to the template value specifically. Individual values can be left out of this list, e.g. <code><nowiki>{{navbar|template=Template Name|h|m|w}}</nowiki></code> will only show the view, history, move, and watchlist links.
 
===Shortcut templates ===
The <code>mini=y</code> and <code>plain=y</code> parameters can be avoided by using the {{tlx|v}} or {{tlx|view}} templates, respectively, instead.
 
{{tl|view}} and {{tl|v}} also support changing the shown links, for example only view and edit, or only view and talk:

==Notes==
;{{tl|Tnavbar-header}}: Positions <small>v • d • e</small> on the right edge of the line, often used in non-collapsible navbox heading.
Navbar is contained within a {{tag|div}} in order to accommodate a horizontal unnumbered list. This means it cannot be placed inside a {{tag|span}} or other inline element, because the [[HTML Tidy]] extension will 'fix' situations where it finds block elements inside inline elements.
;{{tl|Tnavbar-navframe}}: For use in conjunction with [[Wikipedia:NavFrame|Navframe div]]s, positions <small>v • d • e</small> opposite of the [hide]/[show] feature.
 
;{{tl|Tnavbar-collapsible}}: For use in conjunction with [[Wikipedia: NavFrame#Collapsible tables|Collapsible tables]],floats <small>v • d • e</small> opposite of the [hide]/[show] feature.

;{{tl|Navbar-header}}: Positions {{navbar|Navbar/doc|mini=1}} on the right edge of the line, often used in non-collapsible navbox heading.
;{{tl|Navbar-collapsible}}: For use in conjunction with [[Help:Collapsing|collapsible tables]], floats {{navbar|Navbar/doc|mini=1}} opposite of the [hide]/[show] feature.
