etc_pagination: paginate everything

colak · 2020-01-29 11:59:21

I discovered a minor issue which exists on 4.7.x but I have to check further for the latest betas. I am not sure if this issue is with the etc_pagination or txp.

The plugin does not seem to be listing pages which do not reach the 10 limit. The bug is demonstrated in our site after visiting the last page, and clicking on the last article. In theory, the previous links (appearing on the left), should have been visible on ?pg=170 (or rather not… see below) which is not listed.

The tags I use:

<txp:article limit="10" c10="" listform="live_form" form="" />
<txp:etc_pagination range="5" prev="Previous" next="Next"  wraptag="ul" break="li" />

A note here that on 4.7.x the remaining links have no value in the c10 cf and in my understanding, they should not be appearing there.

On the latest beta, those links are correctly omitted.

I have to create some faux articles in order to further observe the behaviour in 4.8 beta.

For your info, the particular section has 1689 posts, three of which are marked with the cf field and they appear in the home page of the blog.

The complete structure of the page is available on github.

Yiannis, 169x10 = 1690 > 1689, why ?pg=170 would be listed with 1689 posts?

Maths. I used to be very good at uni but calculators and age has fussed things up. The question now may be irrelevant as it is probably a 4.7.x bug.

<txp:article limit="10" c10="" listform="live_form" form="" /> should list 1686 articles, but the last two are still listed inspite of the CF having a value. Although this behaviour is not replicated in 4.8.b2 where I’ll add some posts in the dev to check it further.

Hi.

Pagination:

<div class="pagination">
<txp:etc_pagination prev=">" next="<" wraptag="ul" break="li" reversenumberorder="1" range="4" />
</div>

Tell me, my pagination is displayed only if you add it after <txp:article limit=“14” />

<txp:article limit="14" />
<txp:output_form form="pagination" />

But I need to display the pagination (article), in another block, one level up. But, for me it does not work / is not displayed.

<txp:output_form form="pagination" />
...
...
...
<txp:article limit="14" />

You could add the article count(er) in the <head /> of the page. Something like:

<txp:article pgonly limit="14" />

Using the pgonly attribute only counts the articles, does not display anything. The limit value must match the number of articles you actually want to output per page, I think.

Thanks, added code (<txp:article pgonly limit=“14” />) in head,

The pagination was displayed, but

Old articles disappear.
Number of articles per page – 14
Number of pages (pagination) – 14
14 * 14 = 196 articles

Articles older than 197, 198, 199 … – disappear.

Why / how to display pagination elsewhere?
After all, everything works directly under the articles.

<div class="pagination">
<txp:etc_pagination prev=">" next="<" wraptag="ul" break="li" reversenumberorder="1" range="4" />
</div>

That’s weird. What is your txp version?

Why / how to display pagination elsewhere?

Because pagination data is set by <txp:article />, so it needs to be processed first (unless you manually pass the number of pages to <txp:etc_pagination />). You can try the following:

<txp:variable name="articles">
    <txp:article limit="14" />
</txp:variable>
<txp:output_form form="pagination" />
...
...
...
<txp:variable name="articles" />

Where can I read, about ( article[1] )?

It’s briefly mentioned in 4.8.4 history, but not documented yet. This syntax allows to alter the processing order. In

<txp:output_form form="pagination" />
<txp:article limit="14" />

tags are processed downwards: output_form first, then article. But since we need article to be processed before pagination, we can indicate to the parser in which order it should proceed:

<txp:output_form form="pagination" />
<txp:article[1] limit="14" /> <!-- [1] means process it first -->
