Please add new bugs concerning DPL at the top of this document.

If possible create a page in this wiki which demonstrates the bug and refer to that page!

Old bug reports have been moved to the DPL:Bug Reports Archive...


Resultsheader with columns

The %PAGES% gives back <number of pages>/columns instead of <number of pages>. Is this intentional or a bug?

Page:Resultsheaderwithcolumns

It is a bug and will be resolved. Gero 21:08, 24 July 2007 (CEST)

DPL and Glossary clashing

Question

Using DPL with Glossary seems to result in difficulties in combining categories. Thus previously working combinations of categories result in filtering of output only by the first category, and much larger outputs than intended.

Curious! Any ideas on a work-around?

What is 'glossary'? Another mediawiki extension? If you want help you need to be more specific. You could upload a well-prepared example. If the glossary extension is needed for that I may be able to install it on this wiki. Gero 18:05, 22 July 2007 (CEST)

Glossary is a Mediawiki extension http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Glossary The following is part of the example Glossary I was using.

AAP//American Academy of Pediatrics
ABR//auditory brainstem responses
ACE//angiotensin-converting enzyme
ACPC//Area Child Protection Committee now Local Safeguarding Children's Board
ADH//antidiuretic hormone
ADHD//attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

The purpose of Glossary is to show the detailed text (after the //) when the mouse is over the abbreviated text.

I previously had functional queries in DPL. Subsequently, I added Glossary and could get this working. However, when I went back to my pages that used DPL, I found that they had been corrupted producing far more results than usual. This suggested that Glossary was somehow interfering with the DPL logic. I switched Glossary off, as DPL is more useful to me, and found that DPL worked as before.

All Chinese messages are wrong in DynamicPageList2.i18n.php

Every Chinese character has become "??", not normal Chinese character.The DynamicPageList2.i18n.php in the Zip file here also has wrong Chinese characters. See this page if you want to get the DynamicPageList2.i18n.php with right Chinese character.--Roc michael 11:42, 4 July 2007 (CEST)

DPL and RSSfeeds clashing

Hi, our wiki uses Xfeeds and DynamicPageList extensions. There seems to be a problem when they are used on the same page though. An error occurs in the magpierss file that causes the formatting of the page to display the error at the top of the page, and then display the rest of the page. The error occurs on line 404 of the magpie file that Xfeeds uses. Is there a way to fix this?

Columns Bug

When I use the columns setting, it breaks the background-colour I have set. If I remove it, the background-colour comes back.
Contact me here, if you have any further questions.

When using simple tables in the included page

When using simple tables in the included page, the first to be included looks strange Table bug and not as the original Table Bug 2. All the others Table Bug 3 and Table Bug 4 look different but still not right in the DPLed list.

Is this a bug? And if so is there a workaround or anything I can do to avoid that (except of not using simple tables...)? Please inform me about your reply: NaSe1977 13:11, 25 July 2007 (CEST)

You may consider it a bug or a feature: DPL does not automatically insert newlines between the articles. That´s the reason why the output looks so strange. I modified your Table bug article to show how two additional lines solve the problem.

Thanks a lot, this helped. Strange enough my DPL2 1.2.9 does not seem to know format, do I have to enable it anyhow? (I used mode=userformat' and 'listseparators=...' instead)

You may have downloaded the ZIP file just before I had updated it. Please try again and look for the String "'format'" in the source. Gero 09:51, 27 July 2007 (CEST)
