Please do not edit this page unless you're wanting to edit the manual itself, it is an example included in the manual.

Example

This selects pages from Category:Fruit examples and sets display count to the first 3 articles. The scroll parameter enables scrolling and URL variables. The resultsheader argument uses a helper template (Template:Extension DPL scroll) to create the scrolling navigation. A magic word ({{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category}}) and some parameters are fed to that template, so it can determine the total number of pages and the amount to show and offset for the navigation display. allowcachedresults=false prevents caching, so result changes are immediately seen without the need to manually purge the cache.

{{#dpl:execandexit=geturlargs}}
{{#dpl:
|category      = Fruit examples
|count         = {%DPL_count:3%}
|offset        = {%DPL_offset:0%}
|scroll        = yes
|resultsheader = ²{Extension DPL scroll¦total={{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fruit examples|R}}¦offset={%DPL_offset:0%}¦count={%DPL_count:3%}¦page={{FULLPAGENAME}}}²\n
|allowcachedresults = false
}}

Result

{{#dpl:execandexit=geturlargs}} {{#dpl: |category = Fruit examples |count = {%DPL_count:3%} |offset = {%DPL_offset:0%} |scroll = yes |resultsheader = ²{Extension DPL scroll¦total=7¦offset={%DPL_offset:0%}¦count={%DPL_count:3%}¦page=Examples/Parameter: scroll (example 2)}²\n |allowcachedresults = false }}
