Not done: this is thetalk page for discussing improvements to thetemplate{{Navbox with collapsible groups}}. Please make your request at the talk page for the template concerned.Template:Navbox with collapsible groups is a general-purpose template that knows nothing about the DC Universe. --John of Reading (talk)08:47, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(More)@Dstdnt: I've fixedTemplate:Green Lantern so that its View/Talk/Edit links work correctly. You should be able to edit that template yourself now. --John of Reading (talk)08:52, 9 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

When working with London boroughs with in{{Public_housing_in_the_United_Kingdom}}- I run across this arbitary number. A problem as there are33 boroughs. Why 20? Could this be reprogrammed to allow up to 35? There are also 28 states within the EU- and 50 + administrations within the US. This is pretty high on my wishlist --ClemRutter (talk)14:19, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

ClemRutter refers to{{Navbox subgroup}}. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk)20:59, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

ClemRutter, if you use "navbox|subgroup" instead of "navbox subgroup" there is no limit. I fixed{{Public housing in the United Kingdom}} for you.Frietjes (talk)19:59, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Frietjes: Thanks- working perfectly. What was the reason that the state line was changed ? Is that documented somewhere now ? --ClemRutter (talk)20:44, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

ClemRutter this feature is generally documented in the documentation fortemplate:navbox, but for some reason the documentation there is recommending to use{{navbox subgroup}} instead of{{navbox|subgroup}}. I have started a thread attemplate talk:navbox to see why there is such a recommendation considering that it's less efficient and has the 20 list/group limitation.Frietjes (talk)21:20, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The layout of the Finnish version show the exact same layout as the English version here. The headers are not centered and the font size of those headers is not the same as the title of the template.CAJH (talk)18:15, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder if there is a way to expand multiple child groups? If not, is adding the function possible? For example adding support for multiple groups in|selected= or adding a parameter called|selected1=Purin128AL (talk)15:37, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can use|state1=uncollapsed forgroup1,|state2=uncollapsed forgroup2, etc.--Ahecht (TALK

PerTemplate talk:Navbox#Directly render child navboxes, a feature was added toModule:Navbox to allow child or subgroup navboxes to be rendered without nesting templates be using underscore notation. I have modified{{Navbox_with_collapsible_groups/sandbox}} to also support this notation. I added examples at{{Navbox_with_collapsible_groups/testcases}} to use this format as well. If there are no objections, I will copy that over to the main template.

I think long term, the goal should be to deprecate this template and merge it intoModule:Navbox, since this template is just a wrapper anyway, as it would mean that we would no longer have to maintain separate codebases for changes like this. However, that is a much larger project than these tweaks.--Ahecht (TALK

Adding the in-line notation is Done (and the notation is now implemented at{{LGBT}} as a first example). The code is written so it can be integrated withModule:Navbox/sandbox once it's shown to be stable.--Ahecht (TALK

Hi! I'm trying to get this template to work on kw.wiki (kw:Skantlyn:Navbox with collapsible groups) but it's not rendering quite right (my test cases are atkw:Devnydhyer:Gazamp/PageTemp). I can usually figure out what's wrong but this one is managing to elude me (maybe something wrong with the horizontal lists?). Any help (or pointers on where I could find help) would be very very appreciated. Thanks!Gazamp (talk)19:48, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazamp Part of the problem is that kwwiki version ofModule:Navbar is quite different from the one on the English Wikipedia. It works better, but not perfectly, with the version atkw:Module:Navbar/sandbox (which I just copied from the enwiki version). It's likely that there's some other css file somewhere else that's also out of date with the version on enwiki. You might have better luck updating to the most recent consolidated version ofModule:Navbox that directly implements Navbox with collapsible groups via{{#invoke:navbox|with collapsible groups}}.--Ahecht (TALK

@Ahecht: Hi, thanks for having a look! Would updating Module:Navbox risk breaking the templates that currently use it? I don't want to accidentally mess up things that I don't really have the expertise to fix, especially on a wiki that doesn't have many people maintaining it.Gazamp (talk)18:18, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazamp The new version on enwiki is backwards compatible with all the existing syntax from the old versions on enwiki, but it's possible that there are some customizations on kwwiki that might be incompatible.--Ahecht (TALK

@Ahecht OK I'll perhaps have a proper go at it when I get time this week. If I get majorly stuck would it be alright to message you on your talk page (rather than clutter up the talk page here)? Thanks again for taking the time to explain things!Gazamp (talk)18:17, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Gazamp Sure, feel free to contact me on my talk if you need help.--Ahecht (TALK
