Re: [Semediawiki-user] Creating a dist list link from query results

[Kiefer, R. C. (R. I. <Kie...@ma...>]

I tried as you suggested but for some reason the commas in the result
list would only encapsulate the first person in the result while the
others became part of the displayed text for the displayed "Email all
developers" link.  Based on your approach I wrapped my template approach
with the [mailto: ] and added the link=none line - it works perfect.
 
Really appreciate the assist!  Thank you.

This works for me, no need for a template:

[mailto:{{#replace:{{#ask:[[Category:Person]] [[HasRole::developer]] OR
[[Category:Person]] [[HasRole::All]]
 |?HasEmail=
 | mainlabel=-
 | link=none
}}| |}} Email all developers]

rather than

query.
	Have done some searching and played with some different
approaches but

	Is there a way to create a single distribution list link?
	
	Thank you
