The <kbd style="font-size: 1.15em; font-weight: 800;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:TOC right|TOC right]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki></kbd> template forces the auto-generated Table of Contents for a page to appear in a table that is floated to the right side of the page, in order to improve page layout.
<!-- EDIT TEMPLATE DOCUMENTATION BELOW THIS LINE -->
 
# {{tl|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} forces the auto-generated Table of Contents for an article to appear in a table that is floated to the right side of the page (as seen right), in order to improve article layout.
# {{tl|TOCnestright}} Operates similarly, but is designed to use early in introduction or second sections on the many pages having a lot of images or wikitable elements such as infoboxes dominating the right side of such pages. '''TOCnestright''' will drift up against such constructs allowing text wrapping above, left and below preventing discordantly ugly page breaks and large excessive whitespace gaps on the page as given by the default TOC.


== Usage ==
== Usage ==
Insert {{Tlx|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} at the point in the page where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. Use with {{Tlx|-}} or {{Tlx|Clear}} to prevent collision with text; use the '''clear''' attribute (see below) to prevent collision with images.
* Avoid placing the TOC in a visually poor location; crossing a section division is probably a poor idea.
* If the TOC is floated left of a bulleted list, the bullets will be hidden.


Insert <code>&#123;&#123;{{BASEPAGENAME}}&#125;&#125;</code> at the point in the article where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. Use with {{tl|-}}, {{tl|clearleft}}, or {{tl|clearright}} to prevent images coalitions.

{{Defn|defn=Sets the [[wikipedia:CSS|CSS]] clear property, which forces this float underneath the side specified with this attribute.

{{Defn|defn=Limits the depth of subheadings shown. For instance, using {{Para|limit|4}} will hide the fourth level and deeper subheadings in the hierarchy. And {{Para|limit|2}} will hide all subheadings, leaving only the main headings. This is implemented as a CSS class in the [[MediaWiki:Common.css]].}}
;limit:  Allow limiting of which header levels are shown in a TOC; <code>limit=3</code>, for instance, will limit to showing ==headings== and ===headings=== but no further (as long as there are no =headings= on the page, which there shouldn't be according to the MOS).
{{Glossary end}}
 
== Cautions ==
After placing these templates, logoff and view the page in the default skin to assure the appearance to our readers is sound.
 
This template should not be used when the result is to place the TOC in a visually poor location. A TOC that crosses a section division is probably a poor idea, if that can be avoided.
 
Unless the section in which the {{tl|{{BASEPAGENAME}}}} is placed is long enough, the result may well be undesirable. Note particularly that if the TOC is floated left of a bulleted list, the bullets will be hidden.
 
Do not use this template to just force word warp around the TOC, as this is inappropriate method of achieving this.  Instead add a CSS class to your monobook.css file which will apply site wide. <!-- Discuss on the talk page if you disagree! -->


It should only be used in cases where the TOC gets in the way of other content or is detrimental to the layout of the page; it should ''not'' simply be used for aesthetics since it tampers with the standard appearance of articles. See [[Help:Section#Floating the TOC]] for further guidelines.

The {{TOC right}} template forces the auto-generated Table of Contents for a page to appear in a table that is floated to the right side of the page, in order to improve page layout.

Usage

Insert {{TOC right}} at the point in the page where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. Use with {{-}} or {{Clear}} to prevent collision with text; use the clear attribute (see below) to prevent collision with images.

  • Avoid placing the TOC in a visually poor location; crossing a section division is probably a poor idea.
  • If the TOC is floated left of a bulleted list, the bullets will be hidden.

Parameters (optional)

clear
{{Defn|defn=Sets the CSS clear property, which forces this float underneath the side specified with this attribute. So, |clear=right (which is the default) will place the element underneath all the right-floating elements before it. Valid values for |clear= are: left, right, both, or none.
width
Set the CSS width.
limit
Limits the depth of subheadings shown. For instance, using |limit=4 will hide the fourth level and deeper subheadings in the hierarchy. And |limit=2 will hide all subheadings, leaving only the main headings. This is implemented as a CSS class in the MediaWiki:Common.css.
