It seems the code for figuring out if it should display pagination for a list of posts or for a multipart page was very naive.
This should be fixed in the development version (2.81-beta).
If you want to use PageNavi for multipart pages, you will have to say so explicitly:
<?php wp_pagenavi( array( ‘type’ => ‘multipart’ ) ); ?>
Does above mean that with the 2.8.1 beta the last part is not required?
@scribu…
First, using WP3.2.1, latest PageNavi…Atahualpa 3.7.3 here.
I have been struggling today to fix one last issue with my latest blog (the settings, plugins, style etc. of which I intend to apply to other blogs).
I have noticed that when a ‘page of posts’ (I am confused a little about that terminology, as it seems many use it in differing ways)…let’s say all posts in a category selected by navigation., the plugin and default index.php file of Atahualpa 3.7.3 will display the pagination on the cats page(s) and one can ‘page’ through them….with Atahualpa 3.7.3 (and all older version I have used since ~3.4), when one then clicks the title and is at a single posts page, Atahualpa takes over and we see it’s single post page navigation (note all posts have only one cat and I am displaying just one post per page in ATO options).
Here is the main issue…All modern browsers then note a change to the ‘layout’ and ‘refresh’ the whole page (not just mod the content)!
Now, then…I modified index.php to only have one call to the plugin (at top of content loop – maybe that is the issue for display, should the loop be modified for pagination?)and removed all code for the theme’s navigation…but alas, now when we are at a single post, there is not navigation for the cat that I am in….
<?php // Deactivated since 3.6.5
# include 'bfa://content_above_loop';
// Uses the following static code instead: ?>
<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); $bfa_ata['postcount']++; ?>
and removed any lines that called for ATO options pagination (and also only added this one as when I add any at any point in the loop again, I get two PageNavi sets, regarless of whether we use above code or:
<?php wp_pagenavi( array( 'type' => 'multipart' ) ); ?>
I have tested all combinations, I believe…but maybe I missed something at the current intall notes?
So…what I would like some information on from both the theme and plugin writers is:
Can we make a navigation ‘area’ <div>, eg, that remains at a fixed size and location in the ‘layout’ without too much fuss, that works the same (in display) whether we are at a home page of posts, a front page, a page of posts, or a single post page, etc., that includes the proper navigation (I am in a cat, I am in tag, eg).
I think that when all the above are accomplished, sites will render better, navigation will be clearer, and us folks who work with the theme and plugin will have a simpler task at hand.
Seeing as the plugin and theme are both some of the most downloaded content on www.ads-software.com, I hope a better integration can be achieved and my notes, suggestions, and comments are taken with the full understanding that I desire to make not just my work easier and sites better, but all those who combine your great efforts.
