What the little thingys in the Userbox mean

If I'm correctly assuming what you're confused about, you're wondering what 'border-c', 'border-s', 'info-s', and 'info-c' parameters do. Let's go through them:

  • border-c - Determines the color of the userbox's border. But a hex color value here to change the color of the border. if not included, defaults to grey.
  • border-s - Determines the width of the border in pixels. A higher value means a thicker border, while a lower value means a thinner one. If not included, it defaults to 1 pixel.
  • id-s - Determines the size of the id text in points. A higher value means a bigger font size, and a lower value means a smaller font size. If not included, it defaults to your system's default font size+2.
  • info-s - Determines the size of the info text in points. Increase this value for a bigger font size, and decrease it for a smaller font size. If not included, defaults to your system's default font size.
  • info-c - The background color for the 'info' section of the user box. Change this value for a different background text color. if not included, defaults to a darker grey.
  • Float - Where the userbox goes. Can be left, center, or right.
  • Align - Determines whether the text is left, center, or right aligned. If not included, text defaults to left aligned

Hope this helps! I'll update this list later with more parameters. --DollarStoreBa'alConverse (BLM) 15:07, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

I also found id-c while messing around Qwertyuiopfromdefly (talk) 20:16, 18 February 2026 (UTC)
That one sets the background color for the id section rather than the info section. Also, I made a mistake. It's 'float'. 'Align' is a different command (which I've now added to the list above). --DollarStoreBa'alConverse (BLM) 20:19, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

Questions (answered?)

how do you create subpages -- copied from User:Qwertyuiopfromdefly, by user.

The same way you create any new page... As soon as you can create pages.
Or ask someone else (speicifcally, or in a general request) who can create pages to create the for you.
But I'd suggest that you (or anyone other person who wants to help you) only does so if you're sure there's a good reason for it. There's a tendency for new (sub-)pages to be created far more readily than anything that's no longer wanted is to be tidied away by deletion again.
So, perhaps you could say what you want to create, for two main reasons:
  1. It might get someone to help you out (or tell you exactly what to do to help yourself out),
  2. If it's frivilous, someone can tell you that, maybe point out that there's a better way (like using an established Sandbox page, or something).
