Tags ‎<ncl>

The NiceCategoryList3 extension displays a category listing, including sub-categories, in a number of useful formats. This is intended to allow easier navigation of a wiki's category tree. It implements a new tag, ‎<ncl>, which generates a list of all pages and sub-categories in a given category. The list can display multiple levels of sub-categories, and has several options for the display style.

This extension was originally created by Kichik as Extension:NiceCategoryList, was enhanced by JohanTheGhost and *Surak* and Crafty Coding. This was updated to work for recent version of MediaWiki by JLTRY

The ‎<ncl> tag displays a category list:

<ncl [options]>Category:Some Category</ncl>

The tag takes the following parameters, all of which are optional:

CSS-Stile

The original wiki syntax created with version 2.2 was basically left, but all direct formatting was taken out. Instead the discrete elements are enclosed in DIV and SPAN tags with class names. The benefit is that you can apply styles to the items, either in Common.css, in the current skin's CSS or in your user CSS.

<!-- Sample output for
     <ncl headings=head headstart=2 style=bullet>category</ncl>
-->
<div class="ncl-nicecategorylist>
  <div class="ncl-block ncl-block-head ncl-block-head-0">
    <h2 class="ncl-heading ncl-heading-0">
      Category Name
    </h2>
    <div class="ncl-content ncl-content-bullet ncl-content-bullet-0">
      <ul>
        <li><span class="ncl-subcategory">Subcategory Link</span></li>
        <li><span class="ncl-subcategory">Subcategory Link</span></li>
        <li> ‴ </li>
        <li><span class="ncl-article">Article Link</span></li>
        <li><span class="ncl-article">Article Link</span></li>
        <li> ‴ </li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </div>
  ‴
</div>

<!-- Sample output for
     <ncl headings=bullet style=compact>category</ncl>
-->
<div class="ncl-nicecategorylist>
  <div class="ncl-block ncl-block-bullet ncl-block-bullet-0">
    <div class="ncl-heading ncl-heading-0">
      <ul><li>Category Link</li></ul>
    </div>
    <div class="ncl-content ncl-content-compact ncl-content-compact-0">
      <p>
        <span class="ncl-subcategory">Subcategory Link</span> •  
        <span class="ncl-subcategory">Subcategory Link</span> •  
        ‴  •
        <span class="ncl-article">Article Link</span> •
        <span class="ncl-article">Article Link</span> •
        ‴  •
        …
      </p>
    </div>
  </div>
  ‴
</div>

The whole category tree is now encapsulated into a DIV container with a classname of ncl-nicecategorylist.

Each level of the category tree is encapsulated in a div container with a classname of ncl-block-{headings}-{x}. {headings} means one of the headings options, either bullet or head. {x} means a numeric value that starts at zero and is increased on each subordinate level of the category list, until maxdepth is reached.

Inside of this top DIV container, two subordinate blocks exist for the heading and the content:

• The heading is covered by a block with a classname of ncl-heading-{x}. {x} means a numeric value that starts at zero and is increased on each subordinate level of the category list, until maxdepth is reached. If the option showfirst=0, then the first header is not displayed. This is the default setting, since previous versions of the extension did not display it. The default can be overwritten by using $egNiceCategoryListShowFirst = 1; in LocalSettings.php.
  • If the option heading=bullet, the block is a DIV block displaying the category as link to the category page as bullet list item.
  • If the option heading=head, the block is a usual headings block, starting at <h{n}>. {n} means a numeric value that starts at {headstart} and is increased on each subordinate level of the category list. The default setting is headstart=2. It can be set back to the default of previous versions by using $egNiceCategoryListHeadStart = 1; in LocalSettings.php. If you want to activate the first heading for a certain category list, you can use the option showfirst=1 (or inactivate it with showfirst=0 otherwise).

• The content is covered by a block with a classname of ncl-content-{style}-{x}. {style} means one of the style options, either bullet or compact. {x} means a numeric value that starts at zero and is increased on each subordinate level of the category list, until maxdepth is reached. It contains SPAN containers with the subcategories (if showcats=1) and articles (if showarts=1) of the regarding category.
  • Each subcategory is enclosed in a SPAN container with a classname of ncl-subcategory.
  • Each article is enclosed in a SPAN container with a classname of ncl-article.

Additionally to the above mentioned classes, some generic classes are defined to apply styles on groups of items:

• ncl-block to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-block-bullet-{x} and ncl-block-head-{x}.
• ncl-block-bullet to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-block-bullet-{x}.
• ncl-block-head to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-block-head-{x}.
• ncl-heading to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-heading-{x}.
• ncl-content-compact to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-content-bullet-{x} and ncl-content-compact-{x}.
• ncl-content-bullet to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-content-bullet-{x}.
• ncl-content-compact to apply styles to all items with classnames of ncl-content-compact-{x}.

Beispiele

For a full, recursive listing of all categories under a specified category, use this: <ncl>Category:Some Category</ncl>
For a nice "high-level" category index, use this in a template: <ncl style=compact maxdepth=2 headings=bullet headstart=2 showcats=1 showarts=1>Category:{{PAGENAME}}</ncl> and include it in major category pages to provide a nice 2-level (or however many you like) index of the category.
This: <ncl style=compact headings=bullet headstart=2 showcats=1 showarts=0>Category:Categories</ncl> generates a full category listing, with indentation indicating category containment.

Caveat: When used in a template, the category list will not refresh immediately when reloaded; edit and save the article to see updates.
