Usage
Border
To add the template to a page:
- →
{{Portal bar|Biology|Fungi|Plants|Science}}
Lua error: bad argument #2 to 'title.new' (unrecognized namespace name 'Portal').
No border
For a version with no border:
- →
{{Portal bar|Biology|Fungi|Plants|Science|border=n}}
Lua error: bad argument #2 to 'title.new' (unrecognized namespace name 'Portal').
Portal bar with border extends to the full width of the article, and that can be a problem with right-floating items. To use space better, remove the border.
