Page lists

Page lists are dynamically created links to a group of pages based on certain selection criteria. BlueSpice has different mechanisms through which these lists can be created.

The following table contains a comparison of the most important features. All of these extensions have additional functionality besides what is listed on this page.

The display title sets a page title that is different from the page name.

It becomes the preferred page label used in many automatically generated page lists. It can be changed with the visual editor (Options > Advanced settings). The source of the wiki page shows the magic word {{DISPLAYTITLE:My display title}}.
