[Plugin: WP Publication Archive] show more than 10 links per page

might be useful, link to my page : https://www.riponne.ch/telechargements/

There’s actually a hook for that.

function allow_more_pubs( $limit ) {
    return 40;
}
add_filter( 'wpa-pubs_per_page', 'allow_more_pubs' );

Just add this code to your own functionality plugin or to functions.php to make things work.

By default, the limit is set to 10, but I allow you to filter that limit and make it whatever value you need.

I’m a newbie to wordpress but i have your plugin working. Could you tell me where i would find the functions.php file? should i be able to find it in my wordpress menus? thanks

The functions.php file in in your theme.

thanks, this worked in the old version, but doesn’t seem to do anything in the new version. any suggestions?

lawall,

That’s because I removed the filter in the new version. Well, not so much removed it as renamed it (to be cleaner) and forgot to let everyone know. The correct filter you should be using from now on is wppa_list_limit.

Notice it uses all underscores rather than a random mix of underscores and hyphens. And it properly prefixes with the plugin abbreviation: WP Publication Archive — wppa.

But to make life easier, I’ve re-added the older filter. You don’t need to change any of your code, just update to version 2.5.3.

Hi Eric,

This limit also affects the number of items displayed in a drop-down list as well. It would be a nice enhancement if the number of links displayed was configurable through the WordPress Dashboard. A lot of folks (my client included) don’t feel comfortable editing PHP code (and they wouldn’t have to come back to me to ask to do it for them).

Still a great plugin! Keep up the good work!

It would be a nice enhancement if the number of links displayed was configurable through the WordPress Dashboard.

That’s certainly one approach, but one I specifically avoided as not not needlessly clutter the Dashboard any more than it already is.

First I like this plugin – thanks. I’m using it for a newsletter archive by month/by year.

So I ran into the 10 per page limit (since I need 12 per page for a year of newsletters) and see the instructions on how to change the limit. I’m a noob at WP but I understood it enough to be dangerous, I think ??

However, as I went to add the necessary code to functions.php I run into a big warning from the Weaver II theme I’m using which tells me not to edit the file and make a child theme. That’s a bit over my head, for now anyway, so is there any other way I can make this change?

Some sort of parm/setting within the WP UI or a setting within the plug-in would be a very nice enhancement.

Are there any easier options than me having to figure out what a child theme is to get from 10 per page to 12 per page?

Thanks

The decision to not have a UI for this option (or many of the others within the plugin) was intentional and is not going to change.

However, if you are using the shortcode to generate your listings, you can add a limit parameter to adjust the number of publications:

[wp-publication-archive limit=12 /]

THANK YOU – that’s simple and effective and a bloody fast reply! I used it already and it works great.
