Kigezo:Statustop

Matumizi

• This template can be used to display a status indicator along the top of your user page and/or user talk page.
• It accepts five parameters that should be placed in Special:Mypage/Status: online, busy, around, offline, sleep
• It is compatible with the Qui status system developed by TheDJ
• You can also import (or copy) User:Xenocidic/statusChanger2.js (or just manually update your status)
• Will only work in the user/user talk namespaces.

By default, the output will be as follows

• Status: Online - online
• Status: Busy - busy
• Status: Around - around
• Status: Custom - custom. (if sleep= is defined)
• Status: Offline - offline
• Status: Sleeping - sleep (default)
• Status: Unknown - if your status is not being reported correctly

The first parameter is optional and may be used to point to a status page other than Special:Mypage/Status

Can also accept named parameters

• link: can be used to link the text to a page which explains the status terms (e.g., User talk:Xenocidic/Status)
• img_link: can be used to link the status image (e.g., User talk:Xenocidic/Status)
• offset: can be used to offset the status display further to the left
• offsettop: can be used to offset further down
• sleep: redefine the "sleep" parameter to anything you like

Example usage

• {{Statustop|offset=30}}

  – the offset parameter is in px units

• {{Statustop|link=User talk:Xenocidic/Status|offset=500}}

  – the default is to leave the text and image unlinked

• {{Statustop|link=User talk:Xenocidic/Status|img_link=Template:Statustop|offset=10}}

  – the img_link parameter accepts both wikipages and external URLs

• {{Statustop|User:SomeOtherUser/Status}}

  – could be used on a bot page to display the bot-op's status.

• {{Statustop|sleep=IRC}} - for setting the custom parameter
