Re: Pagination within linklist
What do you mean? You must be having a page with nothing but links then, i reckon (e.g. no article) ?
In such case you’re going to have to use php. This would display the pages.
<txp:php>
global $pretext;
$limit = 10; // change to the number of links to display per page
echo linklist(array(
'break' => '', //put the values of the attributes you would have used for the linklist tag
'category' => '',
'form' => 'plainlinks',
'label' => '',
'labeltag' => '',
'wraptag' => '',
// DON'T CHANGE BELOW THIS.
'limit'=>$limit,
'offset'=>($pg)? ($pretext['pg']*$limit) + 1 : ''
));
</txp:php>This way you can browse through your links by adding a pg variable to the url. If for instance you are using an empty section called ‘links’; the url would be www.mysite.com/links/?pg=2 to see the second page. Making a list of those pages is a whole other issue; and would require a plugin. Either code them manually, depending on the number of links you have and update that every time you need an additional page, or post a resquest in the Plugin Request sub-forum.

Re: Pagination within linklist
It seems that tag <txp:linklist /> doesn’t have “offset” attr :(

Re: Pagination within linklist
I think it does now ( r2718 ) but you will need SVN or wait for v4.0.6

Re: Pagination within linklist
Ouch.. I’ve done the listing with offset but how to make textpattern load ob1_pagination?
Little editted code:
<txp:php>
global $pretext;
$limit = 2; // change to the number of links to display per page
echo linklist(array(
'break' => '', //put the values of the attributes you would have used for the linklist tag
'category' => '',
'form' => 'Links',
'label' => '',
'labeltag' => '',
'wraptag' => '',
// DON'T CHANGE BELOW THIS.
'limit'=>$limit,
'offset'=>$pretext['pg'] ? ($pretext['pg']-1)*$limit : ''
));
echo $pretext['pg']; //just for debugging
</txp:php>And some notice – i paste this code into article, not presentation. And everything loke nice – when i add ?pg=2 to the url it skippes right amount of links in the link list. But I’m stark with calling txp’s pagination function. I think it looks for some parametr from article list wich is absent in link list.

Re: Pagination within linklist
The regular pagination won’t work with linklist as it doesn’t count amount of rows in the txp_link with specific category. So you will be need extra query or something to bring on the information that how many links there is in total. Like this:
<txp:php>
global $pretext;
$count = getCount("txp_link");
if($pretext['c']) {
$where = "Category = '".$pretext['c']."'";
$count = getCount("txp_link", $where);
}
$showing = gps('pg')*10;
$prev = gps('pg')-1;
$next = gps('pg')+1;
echo (gps('pg') && 1 < gps('pg')) ? '<a href="?pg='.$prev.'">Prev</a>' : 'Prev';
echo ($showing<$count OR $showing == $count) ? '<a href="?pg='.$next.'">Next</a>' : 'Next';
</txp:php>Cheers!

Re: Pagination within linklist
Something happened and now it’s shoing error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/u78707/uromax.ru/www/textpattern/publish/taghandlers.php(2807) : eval()’d code on line 6
The whole article code:

global $pretext;
$limit = 2; // change to the number of links to display per page
echo linklist(array(
'break' => '', //put the values of the attributes you would have used for the linklist tag
'category' => '',
'form' => '',
'label' => '',
'labeltag' => '',
'wraptag' => '',
// DON'T CHANGE BELOW THIS.
'limit'=>$limit,
'offset'=> ''
));
echo $pretext['pg']; //just for debugging
</txp:php>

Re: Pagination within linklist
Here is the plugin.
Use like this, if you want only links from the textpattern category to display, for instance :
<txp:php>
global $pretext;
extract($pretext);
$limit = 3; // change to the number of links to display per page
echo linklist(array(
'category' => 'textpattern',
'form' => 'Links',
'limit'=>$limit,
'offset'=>($pg)? (($pg - 1) * $limit) : ''
));
echo n.gbo_paginate_anything(array(
'pageby' => $limit,
'category' => 'textpattern',
'what' => 'link'
));
</txp:php>Offline

Re: Pagination within linklist
Hey ghost, can we see how you are using this? I’m interested in doing something similar but haven’t seen anyone else do it.
