Regarding DynamicPageList (DPL) for WikiNews I've got a number of requests, parameters to add: *sort by: (*date, last change, name, etc.) date - wikinews has date categories in the format "June 1, 2005". every news article should be in one of these categories **primary and secondary criteria? *order: (asc or desc) *notcategory: logical AND NOT with list items (example: notcategory: disputed) *style: (bulleted(default), numbered, none) *prefix: (none(default), date, category (specified via a supercategory, "category:" is trimmed when displayed)) -put the prefix before the article name, w/a colon after it. for example: "June 1, 2005: Joe decides to have a hamburger" *trimtemplates: don't list templates *trimcategories: don't list categories *suppresserrors: don't display errors
[please try to make the summary of bugs describe the issue succinctly but precisely]
A 'notcategory' feature as mentioned in the original post would be extremely good. I may code one.
In v1.2 (see cvs, plus deployed on en.wikinews) I added: - sorting (parameter "ordermethod", values in {categoryadd, lastedit}, default categoryadd) - order (parameter "order", values in {descending, ascending}, default descending) - style (parameter "mode", values in {unordered, ordered, none}, default unordered) - suppress errors (parameter "suppresserrors", value must be in {true}, default is not set) - exclude category (parameter "notcategory", value equivalent to the parameter "category") Documentation is at [[m:DynamicPageList]]
As far as I can tell, all of these params (except maybe style?) have been implemented in DPL. Style can be achieved with CSS.
