MarkupPagerNav: So close to getting this to work... looping URLs to first page?

[hollyvalero]

Trying to create a report environment for a nonprofit with a lot of lengthy guides. 3 Templates: report cover, report TOC, report pages. 

Cover will be simple http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/
TOC is a list in manual order of all pages http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/table-of-contents/

Report page is the actual report content.  These are the pages where I want pagination at the bottom in some format:  Previous   1   2  3  4   5   Next

Page numbers are turned on for the Report page template (not TOC or Cover - do they need to be on for the parent pages?)

I am trying this for pagination:

- - - - - - - 

$options = array(
  'numPageLinks' => 10,
  'listClass' => 'uk-pagination',
  'linkMarkup' => "<a href='{url}'>{out}</a>",
  'currentItemClass' => 'uk-active uk-text-bold',
  'separatorItemLabel' => '<span>…</span>',
  'separatorItemClass' => 'uk-disabled',
  'currentLinkMarkup' => '<span>{out}</span>',
  'nextItemLabel' => 'Next',
  'previousItemLabel' => 'Previous',
  'nextItemClass' => '',
  'previousItemClass' => '',
  'lastItemClass' => '',
);

$items = $page->parent->children("limit=2");
$pager = $modules->get('MarkupPagerNav');
echo $pager->render($items, $options);

 - - - - - - - 

This is giving me the active page bold, the numbers, next & previous... but all the links are relative to the current page - whichever one you are on:

http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/table-of-contents/neanderthal-flatbreads/page2/
http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/table-of-contents/neanderthal-flatbreads/page3/

 

Instead of going to the actual pages 

http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/table-of-contents/neanderthal-flatbreads/
http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/table-of-contents/indian-subcontinent/
http://test.hollycodes.com/a-short-history-of-flatbreads/table-of-contents/what-makes-flatbread-flat/

 

Been trying to suss out what I am doing wrong for a few hours and not seeing it...

all of those links are login-protected...

what's the page / tree structure look like?

Oh, sorry... I took off the protected mode. It's open.

 

Top level is cover,

TOC is TOC

Pages are report pages - with the pagination...

That's not how MarkupPagerNav works. The MarkupPageNav module is useful when you want to stay on one page which is listing summaries from a PageArray of other pages. The pagination is for those summaries, so if with no limit applied a selector would return a PageArray of 20 pages and you wanted to show 4 summaries per page (limit=4) on some overview page then MarkupPagerNav would create 5 links. But you always stay on the overview page - the links in the pager don't take you to the individual pages that the summaries are for.

So technically you could create a pager on the Table on Contents page, using a PageArray of child pages with a limit of 1, and then output the whole content of the child page in your foreach loop. But instead I think you want visitors to actually visit those child pages, not just stay on the Table of Contents page.

So what you want is a normal menu for the pages in your PageArray. You can create this any way that you like to create menus in your site, but here is an example:

<?php
$items = $page->siblings();
$next_page = $page->next();
$prev_page = $page->prev();
?>

<!-- Add whatever classes or extra markup you need to this unordered list -->
<?php if($items->count > 1): ?>
	<ul>
		<?php if($prev_page->id): ?>
			<li><a href="<?= $prev_page->url ?>">Previous</a></li>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<?php foreach($items as $key => $item): ?>
			<li class="<?= $page === $item ? 'current' : '' ?>"><a href="<?= $item->url ?>"><?= $key + 1 ?></a></li>
		<?php endforeach; ?>
		<?php if($next_page->id): ?>
			<li><a href="<?= $next_page->url ?>">Next</a></li>
		<?php endif; ?>
	</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

Clarified about limit regarding MarkupPagerNav.

*** Thank you.  The more I played with it the more I thought, "you know... this is for search results...I don't think this is the right application for the pager... so I 

went on to do the next and previous page thing - less terrific than yours so I will be happy to try your code as mine is a little thin.

 

But thank you for that. Suspicions confirmed. ?

Here is a more sophisticated version if you have a large number of siblings and don't want to include all of them in the pager navigation.

<?php
// Limit for number of sibling links
$limit = 9;
// Get the number of visible siblings
$num_siblings = $page->parent->numChildren(true);
// The default start value is zero
$start = 0;
// If the number of siblings is greater than the limit then we need to adjust the start value
if($num_siblings > $limit) {
	// Get the halfway point of the limit
	$half_limit = floor($limit / 2);
	// Get the index of the current page relative to its siblings
	$index = $page->index();
	// Adjust the start value to keep the current page within the sibling links
	if($index > $half_limit) $start = $index - $half_limit;
	if($num_siblings - $start < $limit) $start = $num_siblings - $limit;
}
$items = $page->siblings("start=$start, limit=$limit");
// Next page and previous page relative to current page
$next_page = $page->next();
$prev_page = $page->prev();
?>
	
<?php if($items->count > 1): ?>
	<ul>
		<?php if($prev_page->id): ?>
			<li><a href="<?= $prev_page->url ?>">Previous</a></li>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<?php if($start > 0): ?>
			<li>&hellip;</li>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<?php foreach($items as $item): ?>
			<li class="<?= $page === $item ? 'current' : '' ?>"><a href="<?= $item->url ?>"><?= $item->index() + 1 ?></a></li>
		<?php endforeach; ?>
		<?php if($num_siblings > $start + $limit): ?>
			<li>&hellip;</li>
		<?php endif; ?>
		<?php if($next_page->id): ?>
			<li><a href="<?= $next_page->url ?>">Next</a></li>
		<?php endif; ?>
	</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

Oooh... Even better!  I will see if I can follow along!  Thank you!!
