It would be awesome if you had some installing instructions too. {{nosigr|12:21, August 21, 2007|81.198.235.75}}

:It would be nice if you could use a 'real' name.
:There was a proper manual, but it seems to have been deleted by incident. It has been restored.

== Bugreport: params don't exist! ==

At least $wgDPL2AllowUnlimitedResults and $wgDPL2MaxResultCount don't seem to exist (anymore). Grep confirms this:
root@host:extensions/DynamicPageList# grep wgDPL2MaxResultsCount *.php
root@host:extensions/DynamicPageList# grep wgDPL2AllowUnlimitedResults *.php
root@host:extensions/DynamicPageList#

This is really annoying since we hit the limit of 500 in a number of queries. Right now all we can do is patch the code directly ;-(

Indeed, due to a change some time ago these variables are now public static members of 
 class ExtDynamicPageList2
    ..
    public  static $maxResultCount           = 500;   // Maximum number of results to allow
    public  static $allowUnlimitedResults    = false; // Allow unlimited results to be shown
    ..

They should be accessible as  ExtDynamicPageList2::$maxResultCount  etc.

:: Is this the intended behavior (in that case, the documentation has to be updated) or, which would IMHO be the better solution, will these variables be made available again?

:::Yes and yes. I will try to find a way to make the old global variables available besides the new form - but only for reasons of downward compatibility; the preferred way is to use the static class members. [[User:Gero|Gero]] 07:01, 5 May 2008 (CEST)
