Classes and sub-templates of Template:Static row numbers
| Wikitext | Place after | Short description |
|---|---|---|
| class="static-row-numbers" | {| | Adds row numbers. |
| class="static-row-header" | |- | No row number. Some borders removed. |
| class="static-row-numbers-norank" | |- | No row number. Borders remain. |
| class="static-row-header-text" | {| | Adds "No." to number column header. |
| class="static-row-header-hash" | {| | Adds "#" to number column header. |
| Sub-templates | Shortcut | Wikitext |
|---|---|---|
| {{Static row numbers total}} | {{srn total}} | class="static-row-header" style="font-weight:bold;" |
| {{Static row numbers header}} | {{srn header}} | class="static-row-header" style="text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom;" |
In tables with class=wikitable the above 2 templates should not be used on rows where all the cells are headers. All-header rows do not have row numbers, and are already center-aligned and bold. People are often mistakenly adding {{Static row numbers header}} to header rows. It does nothing there. Neither does {{Static row numbers total}}
The following 2 templates have various problems listed on their doc pages.
| Sub-template | Shortcut | Wikitext |
|---|---|---|
| {{Static row numbers arrows}} | {{srn arrows}} | See template doc for variable output |
| Sub-template | Shortcut | Wikitext |
|---|---|---|
| {{Static row numbers table}} | {{srn table}} | class="wikitable sortable static-row-numbers plainrowheaders srn-white-background" border=1 style="text-align:right;" |
The following sub-template also has a problem. See this version of List of countries by imports. United States should not have a row number. But it does because of this combination:
- |- {{Static row numbers no rank}}{{sort row|3}}
| Sub-templates | Wikitext |
|---|---|
| {{Static row numbers no rank}} | class="static-row-numbers-norank" |
The template is no longer being used in article space.
class=static-row-numbers-norank is very useful. It is NOT the same as class=static-row-header
class=static-row-numbers-norank keeps all the borders in the row number column. class=static-row-header does not. To see the difference see this diff for List of countries by population (United Nations). I checked in Safari on my iphone SE 2020, and it is true there too.
