There is already a way to exclude templates by putting them in one of two categories: Templates in category "Exclude in print" or in blacklist "MediaWiki:PDF Template Blacklist" are excluded. Could either of those solve your problem?

thank you! it is fine.is it possible to have them for one time? specially for navebox?

sure, if you need that and can't do it, you'll have to ask onwiki, not in bugzilla.

I mine is it possible to have specific template only one time instead of none or many times?

Ah, that wasn't clear from the initial bug report
