BreakPageList

Questions answered by this recipe

How to break a pagelist dispaly into smaller chunks.

Description

Use BreakPageList to break a long pagelist display into several subpages, and display links to all subpages as a series of page numbers.

Download breakpagelist.phpΔ, copy to cookbook folder and install in config.php with

Usage:

• Create a first pagelist for determining max page count (optionally displaying the count):
  (:pagelist .... fmt=maxcount :)
• Create a second pagelist as the pagelist with the real output format:
  (:pagelist ..... count={$BPLRange} :)
• Create subpage links with markup (:breakpagelist:)

Note the order of pagelists!
Both pagelists should have same listing parameters, and differ only in the fmt= and in the count= parameters

You can set in a local config file $BPLEntriesPerPage for the number of entries the pageglist shall display per page.

Example:

Total Pages: (:pagelist group=Cookbook list=normal fmt=maxcount :)

(:breakpagelist:)

(:pagelist group=Cookbook list=normal fmt=#titles count={$BPLRange} :)

Notes

count={$BPLRange} gives a range for the pagelist in form of count=from..to.
For the highest range shown {$BPLRange} will not show the actual last (highest) page entry number, but a number equal or higher than this.
