More Category Related Issues (or maybe shortcode)

  • Hi:

    It looks like if you put multiple category shortcodes on a page, the plugin gets confused with pagination. For example, lets say that I place the following shortcodes on the same page (in the same editor):

    [featuredvideo]
    [categoryvideothumb type=category id=6 rows=3 cols=8].
    [categoryvideothumb type=category id=7 rows=3 cols=8]
    [categoryvideothumb type=category id=9 rows=3 cols=8]

    Then some of these shortcodes will have page numbers to move to the 2nd page but others might not. Clicking to the next page will result in the plugin refreshing the whole page and attempting to move all 4 shortcode sections to page 2 but the sections that don’t have a page 2 will simply not show any videos. To the end user this is disconcerting – all they wanted to see was the 2nd page of the shortcode section they were using, not the 2nd page for all categories/shortcodes on the page.

    I am not sure if this is by design or a bug.

    Thanks.

  • Pagination parameter is based on the WordPress function and the query string is same for all pages. So, if you have more that one pagination sections in a page, then it will not work. You should use one section per page.

    Commonly, the web page should have one main content and many modules and plugins. In Video Gallery plugin, the short codes will call all the main content. So you should use one section per page. If you want to add more section, you can use widgets.
