Text Lists

Lists data.

Linked Icons

Add an pre-sized icon with a link to the specified item/weapon/character (eg. see Shop > Modifiers).

Most of these were widely used in common templates, prior to Template:Iconbox being updated with options that made them redundant for such use.

Template:ItemIcon {{ItemIcon|Acid}} Acid.png Acid
Template:WeaponIcon {{WeaponIcon|Cacti Club}} Cacti Club.png Cacti Club
Template:MiscIcon {{MiscIcon|Tree}} Tree.png Tree Using one of the 3 icon templates in the rows above is preferable, as it makes maintenance a bit easier.

Toggles

Can be used to show/hide sections by clicking a button.

Template Description Code
ToggleStart Starts a toggleable section. The template page has docs for all the other toggle templates. {{ToggleStart}}
ToggleEnd Ends a toggleable section. Required, otherwise the page will break! {{ToggleEnd}}
ToggleSection Lets you make multiple toggleable sections that open/collapse from a single button. {{ToggleSection}}
ToggleButton Use with ToggleSection to make a toggle button separate from its target section(s). {{ToggleButton}}
