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

Overview

This template is used to show an infobox at the top of a Tip mission article. In addition to showing the infobox, it also supplies the appropriate categories using a default sort key that strips off the first six characters (which should always be "Tip - "); thus, "Mission:Tip - Example" would sort under "E".

This template has special magic that ensures that it will only activate in the Mission: namespace. If an article in another namespace transcludes the article, the infobox and categories will automatically suppress. (Conversely, this means it can only be used in the Mission: namespace.)

Usage

Copy and paste to use:

{{Infobox Tip
|type=
|place=
|available=
|levelfrom=
|levelto=
|choice=
}}

Explanation of parameters:

type=
The type of tip mission. This must be one of the following:
  • alignment, for an alignment mission
  • morality, for a morality mission
  • event, for an event mission
place=
The place where the tip drops. Possible options:
  • Paragon City, required for alignment and morality missions in Paragon City
  • Rogue Isles, required for alignment and morality missions in the Rogue Isles
  • Anywhere, recommended for tips that can drop anywhere (such as event tips)
available=
Specifies who the tip is available to. That is, who the tip will drop for. This must be one of the following:
  • hero, for Heroes
  • vill, for Villains
  • rog, for Rogues
  • vig, for Vigilantes
  • herovig, for Heroes and Vigilantes
  • villrog, for Villains and Rogues
  • herovigrog, for Heroes, Vigilantes, and Rogues
  • villrogvig, for Villains, Rogues, and Vigilantes
  • all4, for Heroes, Vigilantes, Villains, and Rogues
  • everyone, for Everyone
levelfrom=
levelto=
Together, these two parameters specify the level range, with levelfrom= being the lower bound and levelto= being the upper bound. If the levels aren't known, then leave these parameters blank and a question mark will automatically be supplied.
choice=
Specifies what alignment/morality choice is available in the mission. This must be one of the following:
  • hero, for Heroes
  • vill, for Villains
  • rog, for Rogues
  • vig, for Vigilantes
  • herovig, for Heroes and Vigilantes
  • villrog, for Villains and Rogues
demo=
(Not shown in the copy-and-paste above.) This enables demo mode. The Infobox will be forcibly shown. The categories will be forcibly suppressed.
