Paginating archives next_posts_link to wp_link_pages

  • Reading the function reference it seems as though I should be able to replace

    <?php next_posts_link('??') ?>

<?php previous_posts_link('??') ?>

    with
    <?php wp_link_pages(); ?>

    To get paginated archives.
    I have my archives displayed in a grid layout, max of 16 with the code below, and want the site to paginate if archives are > 16, but show page numbers at the bottom, similar to << 1 2 3 4 >>

    <?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="posts">

	<?php $x = 0; ?>
	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
			<?php if ( is_int( $x / 4 ) ) { ?>
				<div class="clear">
			<?php } ?>
					<div class="archive-posts">
						<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?><br /><?php the_title(); ?></a>
					</div>
				<?php if ( is_int( $x / 4 ) ) { ?>
					</div>
				<?php }
				 $x = $x + 1; ?>

		<?php endwhile; ?>
		<!--navigation-->
		<div id="navlinks">
<?php next_posts_link('??') ?>  <?php previous_posts_link('??') ?>  </div>
		<span class="clear"></span>

	<?php else : ?>
<div class="text-feedback">
		Not Found<br /><br />
<?php get_search_form('title='); ?></div>
		<?php  // include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>

	<?php endif; ?>

	</div>
<!--archive.php end-->

<?php get_footer(); ?>

  • wp_link_pages() is used to break a single long post into multiple pages, not to provide navigation to groups of posts.

    I think what you want is wp_paginate_links().

    oh, of course.
    It is almost working like I want. The only issue is that the numbers are backwards but i cannot see in the reference that this can be controlled. It is showing

    previous 4321 next

    Here is my code

    <?php
		$big = 999999999; // need an unlikely integer
		echo paginate_links( array(
			'base' => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
			'format' => '?paged=%#%',
			'total' => $wp_query->max_num_pages,
			'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
			'prev_text' => __('? anterior'),
 		    'next_text' => __('siguiente ?')
			) );
		?>

    Ideas?

    I have no idea what would cause that.

    seems like if I change 'current' => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ) to 'current' => 0 it works, but it then gets rid of my prev/next text at both ends
