txp:article_custom and pagination

lozmatic · 2008-10-22 05:16:36

I want to be able to list items from multiple sections and have pagination working too.

If i use txp:article i can’t list items from multiple sections and if i use txp:article_custom pagination will not work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

You can try to combine attr offset in txp:article_custom and txp:variable in some way… May be it’s possible. But without changing some global php variables you will not be able to use tags txp:older/newer and plugins, such as ob1_pagination

If you want pagination through list of articles from different sections,why not to unify them by keywords, categories or just some custom_field value? This is possible for txp:article

hi,

txp:older/newer works fine when i use txp:article but not when i use txp_article_custom.

ob1_pagination looks interesting. i’ll experiment with that.

thanks

I’m actually amazed this can’t be done. Just installed ob1_pagination and it doesn’t work with txp:article_custom. Anyone know a workaround?

EDIT: All I am trying to do is show an article list with pagination on the front page of my site that includes only section="blog". I ended up finding an easy fix by making the blog section the only one that’s "On front page" on the sections setup screen. Now I can just use the <txp:article /> tag on the default page and it only looks at articles in the blog section. This is basic Txp stuff I know, but sometimes it’s good to get back to the basics!

chh_article, part of the chh_article_custom plugin. Though the plugin still works, it is not supported anymore!

EDIT: just noticed your edit, that is a better solution of course :)

So, chh_article is supports pagination? So does rss_suparchive, a pleasant suprise. Can chh_article limit by section though? Doesn’t appear so.

I haven’t tried it, but

chh_article accepts the same attributes as chh_article_custom

I don’t know I haven’t tried it myself, but here it sounds like someone couldn’t get chh_article plugin to work with ob1_pagination.

els · 2009-04-13 22:21:32

Well, the only way to find out is to try it yourself… I hear different sounds ;)

Yeah, don’t know, not a resounding consensus for sure. Plus I’m talking sections, not categories, maybe we’ll never know, I haven’t had energy to try this for the sake of it, will post back if I do.

I am using chh_article with multiple sections atm. No problems there. So the “limit” function is there.

Agogo, yes but can you use ob1_pagination with it?
