Forum:Template question: how to make certain articles appear on front page

Please help me with the following simple question to which I could not find the answer.

I want to have a short list of ceratin articles (let's say "stubs") appear on my main page under a heading like "Please help improve these articles." i want the list to display several links to random stubs everytime someone views the Main page, so simply putting links to a few stubs does not work.

Thanks,

Eugene


 * You can do that by using the "Dynamic Page List" extension. You can request that it be activated on your wiki by contacting Wikia.
 * If you want to show a list of stubs you would create a category called "Article stubs" and make sure all stub articles are in that category. Then you would put the following on your main page where you want the list to be:

 category   = Article stubs randomcount = 10 
 * Changing the number after randomcount would change the number of articles listed. Check this page for more information: Help:Using DynamicPageList Effectively ~ Gardimuer { ʈalk } 19:29, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
