list of article, pagination, different frontpage

Gallex · 2009-10-08 13:48:50

i have a long list of articles where the first three articles is displayed differently. using ob1_pagination and soo_if_frontpage i’d like to use pagination in my list : first 3 articles with excerpt + 7 next article titles in frontpage and 10 article titles in next pages. something similar like here + pagination. but can’t get it to work propely

page:

<txp:if_section name="artiklid">
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:soo_if_frontpage>
<txp:article limit="3" />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="3" limit="7" /></ul>
<txp:ob1_pagination previoustext="Eelmine" nexttext="Järgmine" ulclass="pagination" liselected="active" />
<txp:else />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="0" limit="10" /></ul>
<txp:ob1_pagination previoustext="Eelmine" nexttext="Järgmine" ulclass="pagination" liselected="active" />
</txp:soo_if_frontpage>
</txp:if_article_list>
</txp:if_section>

article_b form:

<li><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></li>

I’m not sure how ob1_pagination works, but using the regular pagination (older/newer) you’d need to use pageby="10" in both the article tags for the front page.

like this?

<txp:if_section name="artiklid">
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:soo_if_frontpage>
<txp:article limit="3" />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="3" pageby="10" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
<txp:else />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="0" pageby="10" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
</txp:soo_if_frontpage>
</txp:if_article_list>
</txp:if_section>

no difference. the first 3 differently styled (title+excerpt) articles stay at the top of each page till to the end of list. i’m using this <txp:soo_if_frontpage> plugin uncorrectly…mhh

You deleted limit="7" / limit="10". What happens when you enter these again?

no help. take a look

It didn’t cure all the problems, but it changed the behavior essentially: Now we have pages! Thus I presume it really might be a problem with the if_frontpage tag.
Though I doubt it will help: have you tried the pg attribute?

actually the pages had before as well – i changed back to old solution when i saw it didn’t work

…but it did help :) thank’s.

surprisingly i discovered i has lost individual pages now.

working page:

<txp:if_section name="artiklid">
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:soo_if_frontpage pg="1">
<txp:article limit="3" />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="3" pageby="10" limit="7" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
<txp:else />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="0" pageby="10" limit="10" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
</txp:soo_if_frontpage>
</txp:if_article_list>
</txp:if_section>

article form (not working with page above):

<div class="article">
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:if_excerpt>
<h3><txp:permlink><txp:title /></txp:permlink></h3>
<txp:excerpt />
<p class="meta"><txp:permlink>Loe edasi</txp:permlink></p>
<txp:else />
<h3><txp:title /></h3>
<txp:body />
</txp:if_excerpt>
<txp:else />
<h3><txp:title /></h3>
<txp:body />
</txp:if_article_list>
</div>

added this 2 lines before the end of a code and get it work

...</txp:soo_if_frontpage>
<txp:else />
<txp:article />
</txp:if_article_list>
</txp:if_section>

now i’ll try again with ob1_pagination

jsoo · 2009-10-09 15:28:10

<txp:soo_if_frontpage pg="1" section="artiklid">
<txp:article limit="3" />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="3" pageby="10" limit="7" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
<txp:else />
<txp:article />
</txp:soo_if_frontpage>

Hard for me to follow this on my iPod ;) Note the above simplification.

els · 2009-10-09 16:37:16

You need the pageby attribute in both frontpage article tags:

<txp:article limit="3" pageby="10" />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="3" pageby="10" limit="7" /></ul>

Gallex, that’s good to know! And I don’t mean that ironic!
That’s important information for us in order to diagnose your problem. Not until knowing that paging worked I could locate the problem coming from the if:frontpage tag. Please try to see it a little more from our perspective. Statements like can’t get it to work propely don’t give us a clue what’s wrong with your site.

If I am following this correctly on my tiny screen, there wasn’t a problem with soo_if_frontpage, but simply a conditional logic problem: not enough “else” blocks. Another reason to try the simplification I suggested (with Els’s addition).

actually it was a problem with soo_if_frontpage as well until i added pg=“1” (uli’s suggestion).
secondly, jeff, your simplification not working. only frontpage displayed properly (3 first articles with excerpt+7 article titles) , second page displayed 10 articles with excerpts (but needed 10 article titles).

then i tried to remove <txp:if_section> (added name=“artiklid” to <txp:soo_if_frontpage pg=“1”>) conditionals and then <txp:if_article_list> to make code shorter, but both affected badly my other sections.

right now i left this code below, which works like i ment

<txp:if_section name="artiklid">
<txp:if_article_list>
<txp:soo_if_frontpage pg="1">
<txp:article limit="3" pageby="10" />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="3" pageby="10" limit="7" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
<txp:else />
<ul class="pealkirjad"><txp:article form="article_b" offset="0" pageby="10" limit="10" /></ul>
<txp:newer>Newer</txp:newer><txp:older>Older</txp:older>
</txp:soo_if_frontpage>
<txp:else />
<txp:article />
</txp:if_article_list>
</txp:if_section>

OK, sorry for misunderstanding (again, tiny Internet device not conducive to code evaluation). Glad you have it working. You should be able to slim it a little, by eliminating the if_section tags and adding the section attribute to soo_if_frontpage (keeping the if_article_list block as the outer block).

I wouldn’t say you had a “problem” with soo_if_frontpage, in the sense of a bug. Again, glad it’s working.

Jeff, I was the first one in this thread to put the words “problem” and “if_frontpage” in one sentence, so I feel the need to answer. Apparently my words can have a second meaning. I actually wanted to express that there’s a problem in the way the if_frontpage tag is applied. Sorry if you felt bad, was not my intention.
