CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,

I have some troubles with the cms selflink next/prev

I would like to put some arrows to go from one page to the previous/next, it almost works, unless it seems to see only the first hierarchical level of pages: when I am on the page 2.1, it skip to the 3 instead of the 2.2


Thanks again in advance for your help.

i know this thread is pretty old
but i am experiencing the same problem right now. is there a hack for this?

Crisb,

I just checked, on

http://demo.krijt.eu/index.php?page=level2

and there the next/prev is pointing to the same level "level22" is as deep as level2.

What version of CMSMS are you using?

Ronny

right now i am using the last version of cmsms. (1.1.1)

and to be more precise ...
the structure looks like this:
mainpage 1
---subpage1
---subpage2
mainpage2

i am using this tag on subpage 1:
{cms_selflink dir='next' lang="0" image="uploads/images/arrow_right.gif" imageonly=1}

and the link redirects to mainpage2 instead of subpage2.

Crisb,

there is a new version out, 1.1.2. Check the download-menu on top.

Do you have a link, to see/

What happens if you just use the basic-calling
Ronny

oh, thought that 1.1.1 was the latest because 1.1.2 isnt announced in the main section.

used the {cms_selflink dir="next"} - tag, and it also links to the next mainpage.

EDIT
i just updated to 1.1.2. the problem stays the same 

Crisb,

do you have a link?

Ronny

i am sorry. no. it is just on my local machine right now.

Can you check the source (while viewing the site!), if the numbering is consistent with what you expect. Is it 1, 1.1, 1.2, 2 indeed, or is 1.2 misnumbered. If so, use the re-order pages, to reset the numbering.

Is there something specific with the page you're not seeing? Type/not shown in menu/not active/content-alias used?

Ronny

special about the sites ist that they are all set to "dont show in menu".
i guess that is reason for it.

EDIT
i just checked it with submenu pages that are not set to "dont show in menu". and there it works.
so the question is, if there is a hack for my situation

found that in the changelog of cmsms:
"Fixed cms_selflink so next/previous links respect the show in menu flag"

i guess this is exactly what i dont want it to do

EDIT 2
now that is one dirtyhack, but it works.
in the function.cms_selflink.php file i just changed the following to perhaps i will write a extra parameter for the cms_selflink tag. guess that will do it.
thanks for tipping me off ronnyk.

What about modifying the tag yourself,

the logic mentions:

&& $content->ShowInMenu()

When you delete those entries in the tag, it should show, even if they are "not shown in menu".

Ronny

great minds talk alike 

To play it completely safe for future upgrades, you could copy the tag to f.e. crisb_selflink and find/replace all cms_selflink-references to that name and modifying the mentioned code.

That way your tag will never e overwritten, by upgrades.
