Status indicators
From Create Your Own Story
The genie nods. "A page with a status indicator looks very similar to any other page, but with an added line of code." He summons an image:
Page text here
Do you:
*[[Adventure/Option 1]]
*[[Adventure/Option 2]]
*[[Adventure/Option 3]]
{{Status|Equipment=''Equipment''|Health=#|MP=#|Level=#}}
[[Category: name of story you're working on]]
"On a page, the syntax will look like this:"
Page text here
Do you:
| Status | ||
| Health | # | Equipment:
Pink Dildo |
| MP | # | |
| Level | # | |
Category: name of story you're working on
The genie continues, "This is what a status indicator looks like without the magic."
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#LLCLL" valign="top" width="100%" colspan="3"> <b>Status</b>
</td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#OOFOO" valign="top" width="8%"> Health
</td><td bgcolor="#DDFDD" valign="top" width="8%"> #
</td><td bgcolor="#GGFGG" valign="top" width="84%" rowspan="3"> Equipment:
<p><i>Equipment</i>

</td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#OOFOO" valign="top"> MP
</td><td bgcolor="#DDFDD" valign="top"> {{{MP}}}
</td></tr>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#OOFOO" valign="top"> Level

</td></tr></table>
"Although this may look complicated I can show you how to manipulate the parts that really matter." The rest leave the same unless you are REALLY good at coding.
Use the format as above to create a new template using double braces "{"{{Sample Template}} will look like . Rename it and create the template page.
Use the numbers as references in these lines of code:
<td bgcolor="#LLCLL"[1]valign="top" width="100%" colspan="3"> Status[2]
<<td bgcolor="#OOFOO"[1] valign="top" width="8%"> Health[3]
</td><td bgcolor="#DDFDD"[1] valign="top" width="8%"> # [4]
</td><td bgcolor="#GGFGG"[1] valign="top" width="84%" rowspan="3"> Equipment:[5]
Equipment[6]
<td bgcolor="#OOFOO"[1] valign="top"> MP[7]

<td bgcolor="#OOFOO"[1] valign="top"> Level[9]
</td><td bgcolor="#DDFDD"[1] valign="top"> #[10]
