 | This template is used on approximately 2,910,000 pages, or roughly 20357% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | This template should not be substituted. The markup provided will be confusing to many editors, and as this template provides documentation for itself, there is little justification for substitution. |
Description
This template makes content wait until existing content is completed in all columns. It is often used to prevent text from flowing next to unrelated images.
Usage
- {{clear}} — adds
<div style="clear:both;"></div> - {{clear|left}} — adds
<div style="clear:left;"></div> - {{clear|right}} — adds
<div style="clear:right;"></div>
For technical details, see the discussion in the talk page.
Examples
Example without {{clear}}
New section without the template before
Without the code {{clear}}, this section starts at the right of the image.
Example that uses {{clear}}
{{clear}}
New section with the template before
Here the code {{clear}} is placed before this section, so it appears below the image.
TemplateData
This is the TemplateData documentation for this template used by VisualEditor and other tools.
Clear
Makes content wait until existing content is completed in all columns. Often used to stop text from flowing next to unrelated images, so text will appear on a full width line under the image.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Side | 1 | Can be 'right' or 'left' so content is delayed until just the right or left column is complete. The default clears both columns.
| Line | optional |
