| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Font color. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| Links should clearly be identifiable as links to readers. Refrain from implementing colored links that may impede user ability to distinguish links from regular text, or color links for purely aesthetic reasons. See the guides to editing articles for accessibility at contrast, accessibility and navbox colors. |

Purpose
This is how you insert colorized text, such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue and indigo, violet, and many others.
It's needed for matching a color theme such as in sports templates. You can specify a background color too.
You can make any text link to any page. (See "yellow" and "blue" above.)
For example, giving your plain [[wikilink]], you get
| header 1 | header 2 | header 3 |
|---|---|---|
| row 1, cell 1 wikilink | row 1, cell 2 | row 1, cell 3 |
| row 2, cell 1 | row 2, cell 2 | row 2, cell 3 |
You need {{font color | green | wikilink | link = yes }}
| header 1 | header 2 | header 3 |
|---|---|---|
| row 1, cell 1 wikilink | row 1, cell 2 | row 1, cell 3 |
| row 2, cell 1 | row 2, cell 2 | row 2, cell 3 |
Font color will use the latest Wikipedia:HTML5 recommendations, inserting the span tag attributes
style=background-color:style=color:
for you, so your page increases its readability and usability in the wikitext and its rendering.
Usage
{{Font color}} has two forms:
- {{font color|color|text}}
- {{font color|text color|background color|text}}.
Either form has a |link= option for wikilinking the colorized text.
- |link=yes →
[[text]] - |link=fullpagename →
[[fullpagename]]
You can also name the other fields.
- {{font color|fg=color|text=text}}
- {{font color|fg=text color|bg=background color|text=text}}
You can name |fg= or |bg=, which is nice, but... if you name either of them, you must also name |text=, which is a compromise. (See Help:Template#Parameters for why.)
Parameters
Script error: No such module "aligned table".
- Or
Script error: No such module "aligned table".
Examples
| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
{{font color|green|green text}}
|
green text |
{{font color|blue|do not style text as a link}}
|

{{font color|white|black|white with black background}}
|
white with black background |
{{font color||yellow|default text in yellow background}}
|
default text in yellow background |
{{font color|bg=yellow|text=default text in yellow background}}
|
default text in yellow background |
The |link= parameter is useful where a link is placed in a colored header such as a navbox. For example, if the header was blue, you would leave the background color blank and set the font color to white. |link=yes sets the link to the text, otherwise it is set to the value of |link=.
