Usage
Border
To add the template to a page:
- →
((Portal bar|Biology|Fungi|Plants|Science))
No border
For a version with no border:
- →
((Portal bar|Biology|Fungi|Plants|Science|border=n))
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.
