I would help you with teh MW version, but I am not expereinced with userboxes
user boxes are pretty simple, if you know the html/wiki code behind them or if your wiki has a template for them. This is basically the set up:
|----------------------------------------------------|
| ID Cell | Text Cell |
|----------------------------------------------------|
A Userbox is a table with 2 cells:
- ID - a code representing subject matter of the userbox. For example EN-1: i have a conversational level of the English.
- Text - text on the subject matter of the userbox
Aside form the distinction above, the rest is usual table, row and cell styling information:
* does the box have a border? if so what color, size and style?
* does the id-cell have a background color?
Each user box can also have individual features, such as:
* does the text in the text-cell have a special color?
* are there any links you wish to include in the text?
For most userboxes, I recommend using a solid-color background for the id-cell, have a same color as the border or the box, and have black text against a white background for the text in a text cell; but you may change this as your needs change, and as the specific box requires.
If you put a specific user-box as a template, you can also use it have parameters (like a userid #) and auto-categorize any user who puts the userbox on their page.
