== Inserting the Template ==
Put <code><nowiki>{{Textbox}}</nowiki></code> into the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:SourceEditor/User_guide Source Editor], or use the template inserted and search “Textbox”.

== Editing the Template ==
After inserting it, it should look something like this:
{{Textbox|body=(Insert content here)}}

=== Customizing the Template ===

==== Text ====
Use the “body” parameter to put text, let's put “Hello, I'm a Textbox!” into it. It should look something like this now:
{{Textbox|body=Hello, I'm a Textbox!}}

==== Colors ====
The color parameters use HEX<ref>I'd recommend searching “HTML color picker” on Google to see a color picker with copyable HEX codes for that color.</ref> colors, for example, #FFFFFF makes white and #000000 makes black.

Let's make the textbox pink! We will set the “bgcolor” parameter to #ff00dd, which is a very vibrant shade of pink. It should look like this now:
{{Textbox|bgcolor=#ff00dd|body=Hello, I'm a Textbox!}}
The font and color clash! Let's make the textbox's font color, or text color #FFFFFF, or white. It should look like this now:
{{Textbox|bgcolor=#ff00dd|body=Hello, I’m a Textbox!|fontcolor=#ffffff}}
Much better! Now let's make the outline a light pink. Let's set the color to #ffbdf6, which is a very light pink. It should look like this now:
{{Textbox|bgcolor=#ff00dd|fontcolor=#ffffff|body=Hello, I'm a Textbox!|bordercolor=#ffbdf6}}
This looks splendid! I hope this tutorial helped you with textboxes!
