{{Warning|{{strong|This template does not belong in the "See also" section.}} Per MOS:SECTIONORDER, this template is bottom matter and goes below standard navigation templates, and above geographical coordinates and authority control templates.}}

The primary purpose of this template is for when using {{tlx|portal}} would cause formatting problems. This template forms a horizontal bar instead of a vertical, sidebar-like template.

Please note that this template {{strong|does not belong}} in the "See also" section.

This template is bottom matter and goes below standard navigation templates, and above geographical coordinates and authority control templates.

Usage

{{xref|See {{section link|Module:Portal|Image}} on how to add, update, or remove portal images.}}

= 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.
