{{DPL manual|section=|subsection=}}
'''DynamicPageList3''' (DPL/DPL3) is a powerful MediaWiki [[extension]] that can generate lists of pages, and/or certain data and statistics gathered from them, for display in a wiki page. DPL lists are automatically updated whenever said data changes.
As a basic example, DPL can be used to insert, in a wiki page, an always-current list of all pages of a particular [[category]]. The data displayed may be selected and sorted based on factors like author, namespace, date, name pattern, usage of templates, or references to other articles, with a variety of custom formatting possibilities.
== Usage ==
* [[Extension:DPL3/General usage and invocation syntax|General usage and invocation syntax]]
== Primary DPL module ==
These sections contain documentation on DPL's primary module, <code><nowiki>{{#dpl: ... }}</nowiki></code>. This is the DPL functionality used most often, and has a wide range of powerful coding options.
* [[Extension:DPL3/Parameters: Criteria for page selection|Criteria for page selection]]
* [[Extension:DPL3/Parameters: Controlling output format|Controlling output format]]
* [[Extension:DPL3/Parameters: Controlling output order|Controlling output order]]
* [[Extension:DPL3/Parameters: Controlling output volume|Controlling output volume]]
* [[Extension:DPL3/Parameters: Other parameters|Other parameters]]
== Complete DPL Manual Table of Contents ==
Below is the legacy Table of Contents provided as navigation in the original DPL documentation. It is an expansive, cross-referenced list of DPL parameters (which some find daunting and others find helpful). Its links can all be found via the pages listed above, however the table below may be useful to more easily find what you need, especially if you don't know which section your desired functionality might be located in (expand the table below and use your browser's Find In Page feature, usually <code>Ctrl-F</code>).
