Custom pagination refuses to cooperate

Hi there. I'm basically using the same code as here: http://community.lithium.com/t5/Developers-Discussion/Implement-custom-pagination/m-p/106695/   My code: <#assign page_size = 4/> <#assign pag...

    Hi PerBonomi,

     

    This might be the admin settings overriding issue.

     

    Please change this and check.

    Admin -> Discussion Style -> Blogs  -> Number of articles per page

     

    Let me know if this works.

     

    Regards,

    Mahesh

Thanks for your reply. That 1 is just a fallback, if no page number is found. 

 

If I remove the default 1, or make it blank, the page just errors out completely, and I don't even get page 1.

PerBonomi - I just checked out it again, use this instead.

 

<#if webuisupport.path.parameters.name.get("page")??>
	<#assign page_number =  webuisupport.path.parameters.name.get("page")  /> 
<#else>
	<#assign page_number = 1  /> 
</#if>

I hope this helps.

    Thanks :)

    But that brings me back to the original problem. Instant redirect to page 1.

      Seems like you are missing a link somewhere. We also have custom pagination in place and it works fine. How many topics are on that page where the pagination is being rendered? Seems like the pagination is generated based on the wrong information passed, i.e. the count provided is generating 2 pages but in actual, there is no second page. Just a guess :) Please check if the count is actually correct.

        There are 11 articles. I also set the page_size to 4, to test pagination. Something is overwriting my custom page_size with the user default setting, I think.
