Documentation: List Template dpl2
The List Template dpl2 template is used in the creation of the active templates that are part of the Navboxes at the bottom of pages, primarily the Cat section of the Navbox, and the Template:Cat itself. As it is a component of all of these active templates, it is one of the most highly-dependant templates, and editing it will have a massive effect on the job queue and may cause the Wiki and the entire website to run slowly. Please do not make test edits on this template - use the sandbox version instead.
This template has the settings for use of templates based upon this one for use in Navboxes, whilst Template:List Template (and its sandbox version) have the settings for use in standalone applications. The two should, therefore, be updated in sync with one another and changes should be made to support new functionality on both templates in order for the results in both types of usage to be the same. Information on how to use this template is kept in Template:List Template.
The template should also not be used on its own.
The template supports two different appearances. The first type includes a title and a simple list function, whilst the second type includes the title, and then groups within the list with their headings. The two types should not be mixed, as the result will not be an attractive look! Currently, the template supports up to FIVE groups.
The template should also not be used on its own.
