News 2.3 pagination problem

[qzy]

Hi there,


News 2.3 help states that adding the 'pagelimit="n"' parameter to a news module insertion will result in a pagination page of n news items. Does this refer to the presentation side? As for me it works as the 'number' parameter: it shows at most the given n number of articles but no 'next' and 'prev' links appear (although I have far more article items than n). What am I doing wrong?



Thanks in advance,
Balint

Try creating a new summary template, and then marking it as default.  the new summary template should have the smarty tags in it to provide the pagination links.

Scratching head...

I'm not following this thread.

What would I put in my summary template to make it have back and next links between articles in the same category?

Thanks!

Hi,

go to Content -> News, select the Summary template tab. There's a list of summary templates, choose one which has something like this at the beggining:

Code: Select all

{if $pagecount > 1}
  <p>
{if $pagenumber > 1}
{$firstpage} {$prevpage} 
{/if}
{$pagetext} {$pagenumber} {$oftext} {$pagecount}
{if $pagenumber < $pagecount}
 {$nextpage} {$lastpage}
{/if}
</p>
{/if}
