Seasonal

Is anyone interested in creating (and updating often :-) ) a {{User United States 2}} that refers to the normal {{User United States}} most days of the year but changes to wish people happy holidays during holidays? --unforgettableid | talk to me 20:38, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Saint George's Day {England}

I'd like to propose the following:

This user would like to wish you a happy Saint George's day.

Swiss National day

We should have a userbox for Swiss National Day as follows, but it should be made into a template, so that it is more simple thatn all the encoding I had to use.....:

I would prefer to turn this: <div style="float: left; border:solid red 1px; margin: 1px;"> {| cellspacing="0" style="width: 238px; background: red;" | style="width: 45px; height: 45px; background: white; text-align: center; font-size: {{{5|{{{id-s|14}}}}}}pt; color: {{{id-fc|blue}}};" | '''[[Image:Flag of Switzerland.svg|40px]]''' | style="font-size: {{{info-s|8}}}pt; padding: 4pt; line-height: 1.25em; color: {{{info-fc|white}}};" | This user wouold like to wish you Happy Swiss National day! |}</div>

Into this: {{user swiss national day}}

This user wouold like to wish you Happy Swiss National day!

Updated Swiss National Day

This user wishes you a Happy Swiss National Day!

Birthday userbox

Is it possible to make a birthday userbox that usually shows your birthday but changes to Template: User Birthday2 when it is your birthday? - MTC 17:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Happy Christmas

There really should be a user box that says something like 'This user would like to wish you a happy Christmas' - after all, there are ones for Easter, Halloween and even Mardi Gras! Lra drama 12:42, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Help!

@Ahunt: Can you please help, I just added nine weather userboxes. For some weird reason they will not appear. Catfurball (talk) 22:44, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have done some troubleshooting and I think the issue is that Template:Yy cannot parse elements that have an "=" sign in the template title as it interprets it as a parameter instead of part of the link title and thus breaks it. I have not found any workaround for this other than to just omit these userboxes or do page moves on each one to a new title that does not have an = sign in it. - Ahunt (talk) 23:13, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I see you moved each box, I have added them back into this page and they all work now! - Ahunt (talk) 19:05, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

@Ahunt: Can you please separate the weather userboxes onto their own gallery page. Catfurball (talk) 20:50, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
