Paginating category & section pages
I’m working on an ecommerce site and I have sections and categories that solely display the products’ images with a link to their individual pages. The sections are holidays, and the categories are subsets of some holidays. I want to show 8 products in each section and each category as well with the option to navigate through pages if the total amount of products for that holiday is more than 8.
Any way to do that?

The <a href=“http://textpattern.net/wiki/index.php?title=Txp:older”>txp:older</a> and <a href=“http://textpattern.net/wiki/index.php?title=Txp:newer”>txp:newer</a> tags should work for you. Just limit the article list to 8 articles, and then include the pagination tags in your template.

Yes, Zem. I know it doesn’t work with custom. That’s why I was asking how I can do this.

Thank you, bartekk. But that doesn’t work either. Any idea why?

Re: Paginating category & section pages
Zem, it’s working now, thank you. I just didn’t know that article can take the same attributes as custom article because of the options you have when you click ‘Articles (single or list)’ under Useful Tags, you only have 3 options.
