I’m using it like

\startregister[index][bibliografie]{Bibliografie} … \stopregister[index][bibliografie]

i.e. very similar to your example, and can confirm it doesn’t result in a page range in the index. Also gives no error.

Since I've become an expert on tuc files since yesterday (ha!): if I compare the tuc from a mkiv and a mkxl run, I see that mkiv produces an entry ["lastrealpage"]=9 in the references table, mkxl doesn't. This appears to be the relevant bit, and it is connected with the replacement of realpageno by c_realpageno in line 638 of strc-reg.lmt references.lastrealpage = texgetcount(c_realpageno) But that's as far as I could get...

Let's seen if we can make Thomas more of an expert as he's zooming in on the issue: extendregister { metadata = { name = name }, references = { abel = label }, } Let me know if you't see it.

Possibly related: I noticed last week that mkxl does not update the legacy counter \pageno any more for every page. i'll check it

Ah, simple typo! After fixing abel to label, startregister gives the expected results again! Thanks Hans! I may be back with more register questions soon...

And here I am again! Both in mkiv and in mkxl, start/stopregister does not work when there is already an index entry before. Example below! All best Thomas \setuppapersize [A6] \starttext A\index{A} B \page A\startregister [index] {A} B\startregister [index] [B] {B} \dorecurse {10} {\input tufte} A\stopregister [index] {A} B\stopregister [index] [B] \page \placeregister[index] \stoptext

Thomas

\setuppapersize [A6]

\starttext      A\index{A} B \page      A\startregister [index] {A} B\startregister [index] [B] {B}      \dorecurse {10} {\input tufte}      A\stopregister [index] {A} B\stopregister [index] [B]

\page

\placeregister[index]

\stoptext

And I'm not even sure if this is allowed to say anymore, but: works in mkii... That's because mkii is AI enhanced. Can you try this:

\setuppapersize [A6] \starttext A\index{A} B \page \stopregister [index] [A] B> \stopregister [index] [B] \page \placeregister[index] \stoptext (Watch the [A] vs {A} usage where [A] is the label used for matching the potentially weiord nested start/stop ... maybe we need different aliases for these, like \fromregister and \toregister.)
