1. Create your template [[Template:DynamicPageList-test]]:
 +
 +
(arbitrary content/functionality)
 +
 +
 +
2. In [[DynamicPageList-test|any article(s)]], add your template with a parameter:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
<code>
 +
(arbitrary content)
 +
 +
{{DynamicPageList-test|hey there!}}
 +
</code>
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
 +
3. In your list article, add this code:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
<code>
 +
{{#dpl:
 +
|namespace=
 +
|uses=Template:DynamicPageList-test
 +
|include={DynamicPageList-test}:1
 +
|table=,,Text
 +
}}
 +
</code>
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
 +
Your output will become:
 +
{{#dpl:
 +
|namespace=
 +
|uses=Template:DynamicPageList-test
 +
|include={DynamicPageList-test}:1
 +
|table=,,Text
 +
}}
 +

NOTE: To avoid cluttering the DPL wiki, I have not created the template nor have I created test pages which use that template.  So this example is kindof empty.  =)

Cut-and-paste documentation

SIMPLE instructions for everyday usage.

I use DPL for only one thing right now, so I have complete documentation for that one activity.

Displaying notes from pages

Problem to solve:

  • Many pages are tagged with a template.
  • Each page's template-tag also has a note in the form of {{template|my note}}
  • I want to create a list of those pages and their notes.


1. Create your template Template:DynamicPageList-test:

(arbitrary content/functionality)


2. In any article(s), add your template with a parameter:

<code>
(arbitrary content)

{{DynamicPageList-test|hey there!}}
</code>


3. In your list article, add this code:

<code>
{{#dpl:
 |namespace=
 |uses=Template:DynamicPageList-test
 |include={DynamicPageList-test}:1
 |table=,,Text
}}
</code>


Your output will become:

Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 3.2.1: Warning: No results.

NOTE: To avoid cluttering the DPL wiki, I have not created the template nor have I created test pages which use that template. So this example is kindof empty. =)

NOTE2: Consider this DPL use case to be supported. Any questions/comments are welcomed. Edit this page or my discussion page to email me.
