Products Pagination - Support Thread

I've just submitted this add-on under the "Template Alterations" group.
http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1199

This add-on replaces the default previous/next navigation for your store's product information pages:

- document_general_info
- document_product_info
- product_free_shipping_info
- product_info
- product_music_info

The updated display looks similar to this ('http://www.catchmyfame.com/paginator/example.php') , without the two drop-down selections. Links to the first and last products in the category are always displayed, and you control the maximum number of links to be shown. When you hover over a link, the name of the product associated with that link is displayed by the browser.

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

v1.0.1 has been submitted to the Free Software Add Ons area. This version has been updated to include a link back to the product listing for the current product.

Note: A new database field has been defined to enable/disable this feature and existing users will need to re-run the SQL install script to enable this feature.

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

This add-on currently affects only the product information pages (e.g. main_page=product_info), not the product, featured, specials, or all listings pages.

I will, however, put this feature on the list of future enhancements.

I've submitted v1.2.0 of the add-on and it should be available in the Free Software Add Ons shortly. This version adds the pagination format to all multi-page displays (e.g. products_all, account_history). You will have the capability, via admin configuration values, to control which pages have the pagination applied.

Starting with this version, there is a core-file overwrite as part of the add-on but I've also provided an admin "switch" to return the pagination display to "Zen Cart standard".

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

As you can see on my page:

http://shop.sabbykatdesigns.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1&products_id=2

I am not getting the results as suggested by the readme:

The updated display looks like this.

I ran the SQL, then installed the files...Going back to check the file structure for the 4th time whilst I await a reply here.

Thanks. I really want to use this mod!!!

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

@Parrish416: Thanks for the heads-up; version 1.2.0 is now available in the Free Software Add Ons area.

@sabastina: Something's not installed correctly. When I look at the source of your example page, the product_info.css file that controls the look of the pagination is not being loaded and the PHP files that create the pagination are not being called.

When you installed, what did you rename YOUR_TEMPLATE to? I see that you are using the "classic" template as your current template and you should really create your own override template before you progress further. Otherwise, the files in the "classic" folders could be overwritten on an upgrade.

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

I've submitted v1.2.1 to the Free Software Add Ons to correct a problem (in more recent versions of mySQL) with back-quotes around the table and column names for the install SQL scripts.

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

I'd like to add spacing and increase the height and size as in the attached image. Which part of the css file need to be altered to produce this?

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

Add to the end of your /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/css/stylesheet_prod_pagination.css:

.pagination a, .pagination span { padding: Ypx Xpx; }

where Y is the additional height and X is the additional width that you would like in the boxes.

Thank you lat9 for your reply, but I managed to sort it out earlier today. Appreciate your reply though. Thanks

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

Have been using this mod with a 1.5 site since March, just installed the latest version on our local site and upgrade appears to be working fine. The problem I have is that we display our products in descending date added order and I've been unable to duplicate that for the prev next order. Any suggestions on correct settings for "product info", "all listing" and "product listing" configurations; or ways to code this date added order for this mod?

Look in your admin's:
Configuration->Product Listing->Display Product Listing Default Sort Order
Configuration->Product Info->Previous Next - Sort Order
Configuration->New Listing->Display Product Display Default Sort Order
Configuration->Featured Listing->Display Product Display Default Sort Order
Configuration->All Listing->Display Product Display Default Sort Order

for the built-in sort settings by page type.

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

Thank you very much for this fantastic page mod. It was just the finishing touch I was looking for.
Installation could not have been easier, as a matter of fact so easy I thought I had screwed it cause there were not issues lol :).

Thanks again.

Re: Products Pagination - Support Thread

In this image: http://www.catchmyfame.com/paginator/example.php

It allows the user to choose how many products per page via a dropdown. Does this module offer that? I installed it and didn't see it as an option. I'm hoping I just overlooked it. But if not, could you help point me in the direction of creating those dropdowns?

I appreciate it.
