Template:Statustop/doc

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

Usage

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

link: can be used to link the text to a page which explains the status terms
img_link: can be used to link the status image
offset: can be used to offset the status display further to the left
offsettop: can be used to offset further down
