Problem
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.
