title: Formatting error when I make sphinx-build docs for classes that inherits param.Parameterized
body: <p>I am trying to create documentation for some software I am making and I have ran into the following problem. Any of my classes that inherits from param.Parameterized <a href="https://github.com/holoviz/param" rel="nofollow noreferrer">repo here</a> end up having what looks like a &quot;mini&quot; documentation of param written in plaintext after the Docstring stuff I have written.</p>
  <p>As seen in the screenshot above, with a small example this is what is produced:</p>
  <pre><code>
  Parameters
  
      exampleType
  
          Example parameter
  
  Attributes
  
      exampleType
  
          Example attribute
      [1;32mParameters of ‘Example’
      =======================
      [0m
      [1;31mParameters changed from their default values are marked in red.[0m
      [1;36mSoft bound values are marked in cyan.[0m
      C/V= Constant/Variable, RO/RW = ReadOnly/ReadWrite, AN=Allow None
      [1;34mName Value Type Bounds Mode [0m
      test False Boolean (0, 1) V RW
      [1;32mParameter docstrings:
      =====================[0m
      [1;34mtest: &lt; No docstring available &gt;[0m
  
  
  </code></pre>
  <p>My <code>conf.py</code> contains:</p>
  <pre><code>import os
  import sys
  
  sys.path.insert(0, os.path.abspath(&quot;.&quot;))
  
  project = &quot;example&quot;
  copyright = &quot;&quot;
  author = &quot;&quot;
  
  extensions = [
      &quot;sphinx.ext.napoleon&quot;,
      &quot;sphinx.ext.autodoc&quot;,
      &quot;sphinx.ext.todo&quot;,
      &quot;sphinx.ext.coverage&quot;,
      &quot;numpydoc&quot;,
  ]
  
  numpydoc_show_class_members = False
  numpydoc_show_inherited_class_members = False
  
  autodoc_default_options = {
      &quot;show-inheritance&quot;: False,
  }
  
  templates_path = [&quot;_templates&quot;]
  
  exclude_patterns = [&quot;_build&quot;, &quot;Thumbs.db&quot;, &quot;.DS_Store&quot;]
  
  html_theme = &quot;sphinx_rtd_theme&quot;
  
  html_static_path = [&quot;_static&quot;]
  </code></pre>
  <p>and my index.rst is:</p>
  <pre><code>Welcome to Documentation!
  ========================================
  
  .. autoclass:: example.Example
     :members: example_method
  </code></pre>
  <p>and my example.py contains:</p>
  <pre><code>import param
  
  class Example(param.Parameterized):
      &quot;&quot;&quot;Example Class.
  
      Parameters
      ----------
      example : Type
          Example parameter
  
  
      Attributes
      ----------
      example : Type
          Example attribute
  
      &quot;&quot;&quot;
  
      test = param.Boolean()
  
      def __init__(self):
  
          testing = True
  
      def example_method(self, example):
          &quot;&quot;&quot;Example Method.
  
          Parameters
          ----------
          example : Type
              Example parameter
  
  
          Returns
          ----------
          None
  
          &quot;&quot;&quot;
  
          testing = True
  </code></pre>
  <p>I am not sure whether the problem lies with the param class or sphinx, so if anyone knows how to turn this extra part of the documentation off I'd really appreciate it.</p>
