Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses Lua:

Module:Build bracket (sandbox)

Usage[edit]

((4TeamBracket-Stepladder
| RD1 =
| RD1-seed1   =
| RD1-team1   =
| RD1-score1  =
 ...
))

Per MOS:ACCESS#Font size and MOS:SMALLFONT, "avoid using smaller font sizes in elements that already use a smaller font size, such as infoboxes, navboxes and reference sections". Since this template's text is already reduced to 90% of the normal size, use of the ((Small)) template or <small>...</small> tags within this template produces a font size that is 77% of the page default, well below the 85% minimum specified in the linked guidelines.

Parameters[edit]

Parameter	Description	Default
`maxround`	final round to display. This parameter should be omitted unless it is less than the default value set by `rounds`.
`minround`	first round to display.	`1`
`height`	the amount of vertical visibility desired for the bracket. Creates a vertical scroll bar. Enter a number with units (e.g., `30em` or `480px`).
`col-spacing`	the amount of horizontal space between rounds. Enter as a plain number (e.g., `10` for 10px).	`5`
`seed-width`	the width of the cells for seeds. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., `25` for 25px `2em` for 2em)	`25`
`team-width`	the width of the cells for team names. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., `200` for 200px or `15em` for 15em)	`150`
`score-width`	the width of the cells for scores. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., `25` or 25px `2em` for 2em)	`25`
`agg-width`	the width of the cells for aggregate scores. `score-width` will change aggregate score widths unless this parameter is used. Plain numbers are assumed to be in px units (e.g., `25` or 25px `2em` for 2em)	`25`
`seeds`	set to `no` to omit seeds in in all matches. set to `yes` to show seed cells to show for all matches.
`legs`	the number of legs for all rounds. Use `RDm-legs` to individually set columns. Use `RDm-legsk` to individually set teams.	`1`
`autolegs`	set to `yes` to automatically generate score cells per team. If `legs` or `RDm-legs` is used, `autolegs` will be set to `no` .	`no`
`byes`	set to `yes` to hide any team cells that are empty. Alternatively, set to `m` to have rounds `1` through `m` hide any team cells that are empty. Use `RDm-byes` for just matches under column m. Use `RDmh-byes` for just matches under header h only in column m.	`no`
`show-bye-paths`	set to `yes` to replace any team cells that that are hidden `byes` with a path.	`no`
`aggregate`	set to `yes` to add an aggregate score box to each match. Only matches with two or more legs will show the aggregate score box.	`no`
`boldwinner`	set to `yes` to automatically bold the seed/team/score with the higher score in each match.	`no`
`shift`	vertically shifts all of the entries by the number entered. Use `RDm-shift` for individual in columns.	`0`

`RDm`, `RDmh`	The header text of the (alpha hth) header in column m (e.g., `RD1` or `RD1a` for the first header and `RD1b` for the second header in column 1).
`RDm-seedk`	The seed of the kth team in column m. Alternatively, use `RDmh-seedk` for the kth team under header mh.
`RDm-teamk`	The name of the kth team in column m. Alternatively, use `RDmh-teamk` for the kth team under header mh.
`RDm-scorek`	The score of the kth team in column m. Alternatively, use `RDmh-scorek` for the kth team under header mh. Append the suffix `-l` for the lth leg or `-agg` for the aggregate score.
`RDm-textk`	The text above the kth match in column m. Alternatively, use `RDmh-textk` for the kth match under header mh.
`RDm-groupk`	The text for the kth group in column m. Group text will appear to the left of whenever two paths meet.
`RD-shade`	the background color (in hex format, e.g. `#ABCDEF`) of all headers. Use `RDm-shade` or `RDmh-shade` for individual headers.	`#F2F2F2`
`RDm-RD(m+1)-path`^[a]	set to `no` or `0` to omit the paths from round m to round m+1.	`yes`
`paramstyle`^[b]	set to `numbered` change the parameter name style of `RDm-textk`, `RDm-seedk`, `RDm-teamk`, and `RDm-scorek` to a numbered notation (`\|1=`,`\|2=`...). Set `\|seeds=yes` add seeds.	`indexed`

^ Does not currently work for paths under subheaders.
^ numbered may not be compatible with certain other features, e.g. boldwinner and groups.

Parameter hierarchy[edit]

Whenever there are multiple headers in a single column, more than one parameter may be assigned to a cell value. For example, in the following bracket, both |RD1-team3= and |RD1b-team1= can be used to assign the third team in the first column. By default, entries with subheader prefixes will override those without. In the below example, RD1b-team1 will override any value that has been set by RD1-team3.


	Upper round









	Lower round



	`RD1-team3` or `RD1b-team1`

Parameters used in articles take precedence over parameters used in the template itself. For example, suppose ArticleX used the template NTeamBracket, and suppose NTeamBracket had the parameter |RD1-seed1=1 set. If ArticleX implemented ((NTeamBracket|RD1-seed1=2)), then the first team in round 1 would have a seed of 2.
