There are multiple versions of DynamicPageList extensions, which share a common origin:
- DynamicPageList
- Extension also known as Intersection, developed by Ilya Haykinson and Amgine in 2005 to be used in Wikinews and Wikibooks. This is the original version of DynamicPageList.
- The extension is in passive maintanance (since it is deployed in Wikimedia), but the future of it is uncertain and it will not be installed in any further Wikimedia wikis.
- DynamicPageList2
- A 2005 fork of DynamicPageList above by Unendlich and Dangerville with some new features.
- This version is abandoned.
- DynamicPageList (third-party)
- A 2007 fork of DynamicPageList2 by Gero (Algorithmix).
- This version is also abandoned.
- DynamicPageList3
- A 2015 fork of DynamicPageList (third-party), developed by Universal Omega (and formerly Alexia E. Smith).
- It features a rewritten code base, numerous performance improvements, security fixes, and is fully backwards compatible.
- Handles
{{#dpl:..}},<DPL>and<DynamicPageList>. - This version is considered stable.
There is another extension, Extension:DynamicPageListEngine, which makes dynamic page lists available to Scribunto modules. It is compatible with the original DynamicPageList/Intersection and covers many features of other DynamicPageList extensions. But it's Lua dependent - Core MediaWiki use PHP.
