---|---|---|---|---|
age | Parameter "age " defines the required age of the the template "Section resolved" in days. After this amount of days the section will be archived. | empty | required | |
archive | You can use variables in your archive -parameter as listed below.
Example: archive=Commons:Village pump/Archive/((year))((month:short)) | empty | required | |
overview | The parameter "overview " can be used to display a link to the location of the archive page. Example code: overview=[[Wikipedia:Redaktion Chemie/Archiv]] Results in: For the archive overview, see Wikipedia:Redaktion Chemie/Archiv. An alternative to this parameter is the use of Template:Archive box. | empty | optional | |
latest archive | The parameter "latest archive " can be used to display a link to the current archive. Example code: latest archive=[[Commons:Forum/Archiv/2011/October]] Results in: The latest archive is located under Commons:Forum/Archiv/2011/October. | empty | optional | |
show | The parameter "show " defines if the template should display anything or not: show=yes or show=no . This parameter can be used if the template is used on a page which has an own intro explaining the archiving parameters. | yes | optional | |

timecompare | This parameter specifies which timestamp should be used for distribution into the archives. In the parameter "archive " you can use variables refering to the date. "timecompare " defines which timestamp is used for this parameter "archive ".
| empty | optional | |
timeout | Specifies the number of days have to pass by to consider a section as 'resolved' automatically, even if no {{Section resolved}} template was set. Archiving will be proceeded if the specified period of time (timeout) has passed since the last comment. The template {{DNAU}} is supported. By setting this parameter you can get almost the same service as gived by MiszaBot (see User:MiszaBot/Archive HowTo). In this case, it is no longer necessary to use this template and additional to {{User:MiszaBot/config}} , which are processed by two different bots. Instead, only {{Autoarchive resolved section}} for SpBot is needed. | empty = 0 = turned off | optional |

Example
⧼seealso⧽: Template:Autoarchive resolved section/usertalksetup
The following example is derived from the archiving setup of Wikipedia:Redaktion Chemie. All marked/tagged sections with level 2 (that is ==
) will be archived seven days after placement of Template:Section resolved. The archive is at Wikipedia:Redaktion Chemie/Archiv. The archiving will be done to Wikipedia:Redaktion Chemie/Archiv/2007/Januar if the first comment in this section was made in January.
{{Autoarchive resolved section |age=7 |archive='((FULLPAGENAME))/archive/((year))' |overview=[[Special:PrefixIndex/{{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}/archive|archive]] }}
That will look like this:
SpBot archives all sections tagged with {{Section resolved|1=~~~~}} after 7 days. For the archive overview, see archive.
