Pagination not working

Archive

Hello there,

i have a Problem using the pagination plugin. I did everything as described at the github-page. I’m using the pagination inside a modular page. The definition of the collection is also made in the .md-file of the modular page.

—markup
content:
items:
’@taxonomy.category’: blogitem
order:
by: date
dir: desc
pagination: true
limit: 3

pagination: ‘true’


While debugging i could see there are entries in my collection. I can see the entries on my page. The limitation works fine as well, but at the end of the page there is no pagination. =/ Pagination only shows up, when I made following changes:

---markup
content:
  items:
    '@taxonomy.category': blogitem
  order:
    by: date 
    dir: desc
  pagination: 'true'
  limit: 3

pagination: 'true'

But it’s still not working. there are no clickable links - just grey icons. I implemented the pagination like this:

—twig
{% set settings = {} %}
{% set collection = page.collection() %}

{% if header.bloglist %}
{% set settings = header.bloglist %}
{% endif %}

{% if page.header.bloglist %}
{% set settings = settings|merge(page.header.bloglist) %}
{% endif %}

{% for child in collection %} {% include 'partials/blog_item.html.twig' with {'blog':page, 'page':child, 'truncate':true} %} {% endfor %} 
    {% if config.plugins.pagination.enabled and collection.params.pagination %}
        {% include 'partials/pagination.html.twig' with {'base_url':page.url, 'pagination':collection.params.pagination} %}
    {% endif %}
</div>
``` I don't get whats wrong. Can somebody help me? It seems the pagination-template requires somekind of pagination object, but there is none.

Regards,

Michael

Rather than trying to debug this via the forum, why don’t you download the blog-site skeleton from the downloads and compare your setup to that. That is probably the best way to see what you are missing.

That’s what I did. The pagination works on a normal template (like in the blog-timplate I downloaded). But in a modular site not. Sorry, I just try to find the reason why …

Perhaps you could ZIP up your site and send me a link so i can try it on my local?

Hello rhuskter,
I rebuild my template from modular to a normal one. It was the easiest way around the problem. But it’s not statisfying. ;D

Does pagination technically work for modular components? Would it just end up paginating that specific component?

7

Generally speaking you wouldn’t ever want to paginate with modular subpages, as these are just building-blocks for another page.

Yeah that makes sense. Thanks rhukster
