Inhalt Parameter

 * category={page} - Adds a category to the set of categories. Only pages that belong to each of these categories will be displayed.
 * notcategory={page} - Adds a category to the set of exclusions. Pages that are Not in these categories will be displayed.
 * namespace={text} - Specifies the namespace in which to search. Only one namespace may be specified.

 * title={page} - If specified, this object becomes a forum-style link to the given page. Other parameters still apply.

Structural parameters

 * mode - Specifies the mode of output.
 * mode=table - Default. Displays each entry in a block.  tags are not included, so that each table may be given custom properties.
 * mode=list - Displays each entry in a block. As above, tags such as  or  are omitted.

 * compact=author - Combines the  and   cells.
 * compact=editor - Combines the  and   cells.

 * addcreationdate=true - Displays each entry's date of creation.
 * addauthor=true - Displays the original author of each entry.
 * addlasteditor=true - Displays the last editor of each entry.
 * addlastedit=false - Hides each entry's last edit time; shown by default.

Output parameters

 * ordermethod - Specifies the order in which entries are listed.
 * ordermethod=lastedit - Default. Sorts entries by the last time they were edited.
 * ordermethod=created - Sorts entries by the time of their creation.
 * ordermethod=pageid - Sorts entries by their ID numbers; usually equivalent to.

 * historylink=append - Appends the history link onto the Edit field.
 * omit={text} - Omits the given text from the beginning of each entry's title.
 * order=ascending - Reverses the sort order.
 * newdays={number} - Marks all links to entries modified less than  days ago with  ; defaults to 7.
 * timestamp=false - Removes timestamp values from the page links. Timestamps ensure that newly-edited entries don't appear as "visited" links.
 * cache=true - Saves the results of this object to the parser cache. This is false by default unless  is set to true.

Multipage support with
The #forumlink parser function creates links to the present page which offset the forum listings by a certain amount. This allows each forum to contain any number of additional "pages". The syntax is as follows:


 * count - represents the number of topics per page.
 * page - specifies the page number, either as an absolute value or a relative offset.
 * text - sets the link text. If this is left blank, the page number is used instead.

Relative offsets and page conditions
When specifying the page, if the number is preceded by + or -, then it is assumed to be a relative offset from the present position. Relative links which would link to pages less than 1 are not displayed.

You may also optionally specify a condition after the page number, which the page must meet in order to be displayed.

For example, to specify a link to the next page when that page is less than 10, use:

A link to the previous page (assuming count=50):

In conjunction with ParserFunctions, a link to the next page, that won't be displayed when you reach the last page, would be (assuming count=50, only one category specified in category and notcategory is not used):

Conditions may use the <, <=, >, and >= operators.

MediaWiki messages
DPLforum specifies six messages in the MediaWiki: namespace.


 * MediaWiki:Dplforum-by - The word "by", followed by $1 (which is the name of a user)
 * MediaWiki:Dplforum-desc - Show on Special:Version as the extension's description
 * MediaWiki:Dplforum-never - The word "Never".
 * MediaWiki:Dplforum-edited - "Last edited". Separates the title and edit when not in table mode.
 * MediaWiki:Dplforum-toofew - Error message displayed when no categories are given.
 * MediaWiki:Dplforum-toomany - Error message displayed when too many categories are given. This threshold is controlled by DPLForum::maxCategories.

Customization
Templates can be used to give a traditional forum appearance with user posts.


 * Example – User:Inquisitor Ehrenstein/LQTavatar
