ASK How to put Alphabetic Pagination in manual position

Hi,

Can you provide your website URL here to look into your DOM elements? Or you can tell me either any “div, span, p etc.” classes or id=”something here” in your page? Give your page a deep look and inform me, i will guide you.

Thanks,
Fahad

Hi,

Its simple,

Replace your text “**** i want put Alphabetic Pagination in here ***”
with a div
<div id="ap-spot"></div>

and then insert “#ap-spot” in DOM position by selection “reset” and then “custom” from there. And be sure about “Display on all lists?” option.

Thanks,
Fahad

Make sure that your page has more than 1 items (means list) and you have select first option “Display on all lists?” to yes.

this is page iwant to use alphabetic pagination, but ive not install the plugin
https://www.indo-architectsplus.com/product-categories/
option “Display on all lists?” to yes. **yes i’d.
alphabetic pagination work well and show in this pages. but if i click A or B nothing article show there… **article is on website a and b

thanks che2p

Do you know that alphabetic pagination will filter your posts which will start from that selected alphabet? You mean to say you have articles start with a and b but still no results by selecting specific alphabet?

yes correct

May i have access inside the wp-admin for a while?
Contact Me for insights.

i was sent to your contact.

thanks

Yes, i am inspecting the issue and will update you soon. Thank you for your patience.

Hi che2p,

I have looked into your template page. The difference b/w my implementation and yours is that i am modifying the main query and you are writing your own query. That’s why this plugin is not working as expected. Give me some time, i will get back to you with the solution. It might will require to add some function for your case and all other custom post(s) queries. By default this plugin works with WordPress listing but in your case, it should work with your custom query.

Thanks,
Fahad

Hi,

It is recommended to use get_posts() or WP_Query when your requirement is beyond default template structure.

In this plugin, you will find a function ap_where($query). You need to pass your query to this function and it will return the appended clause for alphabetic pagination.

global $wpdb;
 $query = "
    SELECT $wpdb->posts.*
    FROM $wpdb->posts, $wpdb->postmeta
    WHERE --YOUR WHERE CLAUSE HERE--
 ";
 //NOW YOU WILL GET RESULTS BY THIS METHOD
 $pageposts = $wpdb->get_results(ap_where($query), OBJECT);

It will give you the freedom of applying alphabetic pagination anywhere you want other than the default template structure.

you are my hero fahad mahmood
