Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

I like this plugin. One question – is it possible to “title” your pages?

ex:
[page title=“will I ever shut up?”]

and the navigation would be…

home
will I ever shut up?

This is the style of some tutorials I’ve seen, for example…

you pull up a CSS tutorial article, and each page discusses a different topic…

next -> descendant selectors
prev -> box model

I’m thinking this would involve in your article maybe a “header” tag, like [subtitle=“descendant selectors”]

which could do double duty in making a secondary title (<span id=“whatever”>descendant selectors</span>) and named navigation.

Oh, I, too, would love titles for the sub-pages. That would really be great! Wink, wink… ;-)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

No, its not possible to title subpages this way, because if you have n [page] separators, you will get n+1 pages. Its a logical fallacy.

The (sub)title issue will be eventually addressed, but in a different fashion.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

I guess I should be more clear hehe…
I simply meant a way to title subpages, not necessarily using the [page] tag to add the title.

It wouldn’t quite work to use the [page] separator to title subpages, unless you assumed a default title for the first subpage, or allowed the article form tags to specify the first page title (handy if someone will always have the same title for the first page – “overview” for example).

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

Version 0.5.1 of etz_pg determines the url mode first by looking up $permlink_mode and then by looking up the deprecated $url_mode. Users updating or planning to update to newer TXP versions are recommended to update their etz_pg too.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

Well I did miss that one when first released ! Nice :)

<del>There was a discussion about this, someone was looking for it, I’ll try and find it. </del> Found it : Split an article in two

Also, did you add it on textpattern.org ?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

I can then use the example as a template, modify the hover and the background colour be done with it. Thanks in advance

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

sekhu, it’s supposed to look “bad” because it was designed with accessibility and semantics in mind. I’m a little busy right now, but you can check the CSS I’m using on my website.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] etz_pg for paginated articles

A nice feature would be if you could make the comments form appear only on the last page of an article.

Given what I’ve been reading about the lack of flexibility with comment forms in TXP I’m guessing that wouldn’t be an easy thing to add-on to this plugin but it would be nice.
