distinct test:
- Test distinct (link to this page via {{PAGENAME}})
- test distinct (link to this page)
- distinct test (various links to this page)
This query should only show distinct test once:
Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 3.2.1: Warning: Skipping bad option 'Test distinct|Test distincts|Test distinctes|Test distincties|Test distincting|Test distincted|{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}s' for parameter 'linksto'.
Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 3.2.1: Error: No selection criteria found! You must use at least one of the following parameters: category, namespace, titlematch, linksto, uses, createdby, modifiedby, lastmodifiedby, or their 'not' variants
Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 3.2.1: Warning: No results.
Not really. The reason why it shows several entries for distinct test is that the uniqueness requirement refers to the combination of referring page and referred page. Note that a referring page might contain several references to the same page (which you wouldn´t want to see in the listing). DPL offers a variable named %PAGESEL% which shows the referring page. If we add that variable to the example we see why there are several occurencies of distinct test in the output:
Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 3.2.1: Warning: Skipping bad option 'Test distinct|Test distincts|Test distinctes|Test distincties|Test distincting|Test distincted|{{{2}}}|{{{2}}}s' for parameter 'linksto'.

Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 3.2.1: Warning: No results.
Well, how do I get the results to only show the page once, no matter how many page variations it links to? -Eep² 14:37, 8 September 2007 (CEST)
- Currently there is no way. It would require an extra option. Gero 14:40, 8 September 2007 (CEST)
- OK, but it seems distinct is not fully implemented in its current state...and an option for a "truedistinct" (whatever) is necessary. -Eep² 14:47, 8 September 2007 (CEST)
