Description

• 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, and sleep
• It is compatible with the Qui status system developed by TheDJ
• You can also import (or copy) statusChanger2.js (or just manually update your status)
• Will only work in the user/user talk namespaces.

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 20px – offline
• Status: Sleeping 20px – sleep
• Status: Unknown – if your status is not being reported correctly or your status page is empty

Parameters

The first parameter is optional and may be used to point to a status page other than Special:MyPage/Status. Can also accept the following named parameters:

|link=

: can be used to link the text to a page which explains the status terms (e.g., User:SKP4472/Status legend)

|img_link=

: can be used to link the status image (e.g., User:SKP4472/Status legend)

|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

|blink=

: will prevent flashing in "offline" and "sleep" status when set to any value (such as "no")

|nocat=

: to remove a user from the category when they are online

Examples

• {{Statustop|offset=30}}

  — the offset parameter is in px units

• {{Statustop|link=User:SKP4472/Status legend|offset=500}}

  — the default is to leave the text and image unlinked

• {{Statustop|link=User:SKP4472/Status legend|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
