| {{userbox-r}} | Makes userboxes with an id on the right-hand side. | Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Category handler' not found. |
To use any of these templates from a wiki page, please see the individual template pages for documentation. To generate userboxes directly from Lua, read on.
Generating userboxes from Lua[edit source]
To generate a userbox directly from Lua, first load the module.
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> local userbox = require('Module:Userbox') </syntaxhighlight>
You can then run any of the three templates with the code:
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua"> userbox.main(functionName, args) </syntaxhighlight>
For {{userbox}} use the function name "_userbox"; for {{userbox-2}} use the function name "_userbox-2"; and for {{userbox-r}} use the function name "_userbox-r". The args parameter is a table of arguments to pass to the different userbox functions. To see a list of valid arguments, please consult the individual template pages.
