Usage
[edit]{{Football manager history
|dissolved =
|name =
|teamname =
|managerlist =
|title =
|state = {{{state|}}}
|bgcolor =
|textcolor =
|bordercolor =
|note =
|list =
|below =
|american_english =
}}
Normally |dissolved= would not be set; that causes a dash (–) to be added after the from year for the last manager if no to year is given. If the club has been dissolved, enter yes or the year of dissolution, for example |dissolved=yes or |dissolved=2010. No dash is added for the last manager of a dissolved club.
The navigation bar at the top of the navbox includes a link to the |teamname= page title. The link will display the |title= text, or teamname if no title is given.
By default, the navigation bar will display "managers". If |american_english= is defined (for example, |american_english=on), "Head coaches" is displayed instead of "managers".
|state= defaults to autocollapse.
The |list= parameter is followed by lines of wikitext, one manager per line. Each line must finish with either a year or a range of years. On each line, the first year must be four digits. If present, the second year must follow "to" and may be 1, 2, 3, or 4 digits, for example:
|list=
[[Levir Culpi|Culpi]] 2005
[[Paulo César Gusmão|PC Gusmão]] 2005 to 06
|note= may be used to add a note beneath the list.
If information is missing, an alternate syntax is available using from=FROM and to=TO. Any text can be used for FROM and TO, but there must be no spaces. For example:
|list=
[[Example|Example A]] from=19??
[[Levir Culpi|Culpi]] 2005
[[Paulo César Gusmão|PC Gusmão]] 2005 to 06
[[Example|Example B]] from=2011 to=?
Alternatives to avoid Wikipedia's Post-expand include size limit
[edit]Pages with many navboxes may come close to or exceed Wikipedia's Post-expand include size limit. For this reason, consider using Module:Football manager history directly by replacing {{football manager history with {{#invoke:football manager history|main.
