All pages with prefix is a special page that lists all the pages in the wiki beginning with a specified prefix, optionally filtered by namespace, optionally hiding redirects. It can be used as shown in the examples below to render a bulleted list of all pages under a parent page, or some other arbitrary page on the wiki.
This feature is accessible at Special:PrefixIndex.
Transclusion edit
This special page can be transcluded.
The page prefix, if specified, should follow after a / character as in the examples below.
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Special pages}}
If a namespace appears at the beginning, followed by a colon (e.g. Help:) then that is used as the namespace parameter:
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Help:Special pages}}
Other options follow after the namespace + page and are separated by pipes (|):
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Help:Special pages/|stripprefix=1}}
Note that a trailing slash is significant in the example above.
Examples edit
| What you type | What you get |
|---|---|
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Special pages}}
|
Note how the page itself, Special pages is also included in the list. |
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Special pages|stripprefix=1}}
|
|
{{Special:PrefixIndex/Special pages/|stripprefix=1}}
|
Note how the parent page is now absent from the list. |
Note about listing entire namespaces edit
You can list out all pages in a namespace with {{Special:PrefixIndex/Namespace:}}. Note that this will not include the Namespace: prefix on each of the list items.
If you want the namespace prefix, try {{Special:AllPages|namespace=<nsid>}} or {{Special:AllPages/Namespace:}} instead.
To get the namespace number for a specific page, you can use the {{NAMESPACENUMBER:}} magic word, which takes a page name as its argument, like so:
{{Special:AllPages|namespace={{NAMESPACENUMBER:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}}}
Parameters edit
| parameter | value type | description |
|---|---|---|
| hideredirects | Boolean (0 or 1) | Hide any redirects in the list of matching pages |
| stripprefix | Boolean (0 or 1) | Strip the prefix part from each item in the list; if listing subpages of a page, include a trailing slash (/) to exclude the page itself from the list
|
| namespace | string | Restrict the results to the named namespace |
