This is an intentionally unused template, kept for Housekeeping purposes. Primarily it is kept as it's an only working example of automatically paginated DPL3 results.

Example(s)

• {{DPL scroll|total={{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fire (Element)|R}}|offset={%DPL_offset:0%}|count={%DPL_count:{{{count|5}}}%}|page={{FULLPAGENAME}} }}

OR

• {{DPL scroll|total={{PAGESINCATEGORY:Fire (Element)|R}}|offset=0|count=5|page=Category:Fire (Element)}} gives results like (this is not a live query/working example):

1 - 56 - 10 (284 total)

See Also

• {{Pagination-DPL3}}, the template that feeds values to this one, to create the resultsheader and resultsfooter pagination number/range entries using DPL3 variables.

Usage

The count and offset parameter are required to use this template in a DPL3 invocation:

|count = {%DPL_count:10%}
|offset = {%DPL_offset:0%}
|resultsheader = ²{DPL scroll¦total={{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category name|R}}¦offset={%DPL_offset:0%}¦count={%DPL_count:200%}¦page={{FULLPAGENAME}}}²\n
|resultsfooter = ²{DPL scroll¦total={{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category name|R}}¦offset={%DPL_offset:0%}¦count={%DPL_count:200%}¦page={{FULLPAGENAME}}}²\n

Note: %TOTALPAGES% when used in resultsheader or resultsfooter, may cause both to intermittently appear/disappear. Currently, this template is only usable when there's a set number of expected results, such as pages in a category. {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Category name|R}} is used to adjust for this.

The output of the URL link generated, is equivalent to putting the following in a browser (for the page name that has the above required parameters):

https://www.dragon-mania-legends.wiki/w/index.php?title=Mypage&DPL_count=3&DPL_offset=3

This template can be used in a DPL3 statement's "resultsheader" and/or "resultsfooter" to create number range buttons to scroll through DPL result pages. The parameters set in this template, must have their URL parameter values set in the corresponding DPL3 statement, per the usage example below.
