Dynamic Page List-cross section of categories Figure and DAZ3D
 category = Figure category = DAZ3D 

Playing in your sandbox for a moment
Hi Dollygirl! I figured out how to do some more advanced things with DynamicPageList, and though you might like to see them. I had to use the "template" format to do these. -Rob

Hey Rob, Yes I am. I need to do some research on how to pass variables into a line of code to make a page of the resulting list. Like what we have when we go to the search button up at the top of the page. With this type of feature the website will become a very powerful tool in finding that perfect freebie. I do want to say that it is great that you are creating a page for every freebie. It is lots of work but I do believe that people will be much happier with the site. It is amazing how you have amassed so much info on the freebie community. -Dollygirl

That's so tricky a request that I don't know how to make it happen. I've asked a few folks who have DPL installed on their wiki and are better programmers than I am whether they know how to pass a variable to a DPL line. Crossing fingers... -Rob

would list Justlastknight, Pose, Victoria 4 articles if it's used on an article page. Here, it would list Justlastknight, Pose, Victoria 4 sandbox pages.

Justlastknight, Pose, Victoria 4:

Justlastknight, Pose, Victoria 4 - only in the "File" namespace (so images only), sorted by name:
