Extension talk:NiceCategoryList2

New option to sort regarding the key
I added a new option to avoid ncl to sort the list alphabetically, to have index key sorting like mediawiki does.

Thanks for your extension of the extension. Jej 10:46, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Cannot add more than one set of ncl tags
Why can't I add more than one set of tags in a page?

Broken with 1.9a
I'm running a recently-upgraded 1.9a, and I get this with any NCL listing: UNIQa23a55a20531f14-ncl-00000002-QINU Or something similar anyway. Different everytime I load the page. Not sure what's up, can you perhaps tell me what to fix? &#8465;ilver&#167;&#8465;ide 18:39, 4 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Yup, I've finally run into this myself. I've uploaded a new version which seems to fix it. Cheers, JohanTheGhost 00:36, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Help (mediawiki 1.6,ncl 1.0)
I've installed the code[includes....] in my localsetting.php, and upload the version 1.0 in extensions. And when i put category:... , it display the category listing when I modified the page but when I saved, it isnt display anything.(sorry for my bad english) Idon't understand.--Add 02:23, 19 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't know why that would be, but it sounds like a cache issue.... edit it again, and do "Show preview" -- does the list appear? And when you save again, what exactly is displayed? JohanTheGhost 15:23, 20 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I have already test that, but when I do "Preview" it display correctly the category, but when i save it display "nothing", a blank. I have put require_once("$IP/extensions/NiceCategoryList.php");, maybe if I change it to require_once($IP."/extensions/NiceCategoryList.php"); but I thing that it's no importante.I test and i post if it anything changed.--Add 02:26, 21 June 2007 (UTC)


 * The only thing I can think of is that another extension may be interfering with it. Someone recently had a similar problem with the SelectCategory extension.  Do you have other extensions installed?  What happens if you disable them (comment out the "require_once" lines from LocalSettings)?  JohanTheGhost 14:51, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

style=compact not working?
Hi,

Great extension! Im fairly new to MediaWiki but would really like to use your extension. I installed it but for some reason when I specify the style=compact option nothing shows up. If I used the style=bullet option it works, but I'm really after that nice compact look :(

Im running php5, MW 1.10. Tried NiceCategoryList version 1 but still no luck. Any idea?

Thanks again

Cheers, Dave (psytwo@gmail.com)


 * Weird. I just upgraded my test wiki to 1.10, and style=compact works fine for me; in fact, it's the style I use for my main index.  Here's the exact code (it's in a template which I include in category pages):

Category:
 * Try these exact parameters; if there's some parameter combination which doesn't work, let me know, and I'll try to fix it. Otherwise, all I can suggest is that you have some strange conflict with another extension you have installed.  Try temporarily disabling them one by one to see if you can find which one is causing problems? JohanTheGhost 15:50, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
