You’re Welcome Esmi, I’m sure you deserve more for all the work you do. Andy

I wasn’t expecting for you to have to go to such lengths but maybe its been a useful issue to have discovered for future use. I wonder if it is only shortcodes that use pagination? (that’s the word I was looking for I suspect) Its great to know that you are on the case and have updated the relevant pages for other users to tap into.

siteBaGosh – that was pleasantly unexpected! ?? You can find a donation link on any page at https://quirm.net/ckUPs

No problem have made a donation, only ￡10 I’m afraid but enough for a good cake or a few pints as a small although rather pathetic token of my appreciation. If I can be of any help in the futut=re do let me know and let me know how your pagination testing goes. yours Andy

Many Thanks for trying Esmi(and Co) I appreciate you putting in the time and effort, at least we know this issue exists and maybe in the future it might get sorted if the core files are jiggled about with by other wordpress guru’s. Anyway until such a time I will do as you suggest and not use the shortcode on the static front page, shame but none the less its still an excellent plugin, I’m sure I’ll find a way to utilze it on the front page, maybe using a different shortcode as I’m sure its only this one that casues the problem (I think!!) Do let me know if you discover any solutions in the future.

PS where can I make a contribution for your efforts.

foot note…. to help get to the bottom of this I have replicated the problem on two more websites I administer that use eshop. One is on the same hosting provider another a different host. However the problem seems to be present in all three sites if the shop page is set to be the front page (static) what ever page is set to be the posts page shows up when any letter in the alphabet is clicked on using “eshop_list_alpha” shortcode.

Esmi maybe if possible you could try and replicate the issue with one of your own sites to see if we have perhaps found a bug or problem. Just a thought as I was wondering if its just me or perhaps a hard wored problem with the plugin, I dont suppose many folks use the shop page as a front page but becasue this site is only about selling products (plants in this case) we wanted customers to be presented with the shop page straight away, like walking into a shop which seems a pretty logical thing to do in some ways. Anyway Hope this is helpful t you in getting to the boottom of the issue.

Hi Esmi, sorry about delay in getting back to you, OK so have changed to default theme twenty fourteen and deactivated all plugins (except eshop) and unfortunalty the problem still occurs! very odd! what do you suggest I try next, as ever much appreciated. Andy

OK, set up a new page (called it news) published it but haven’t added it to the menu. Set it to be the main post page. Tried out the eshop list alpha on the front page but problem at this point still exists. Your advice is very much appreciated Esmi, I look forward to seeign if the issue can be resolved. Let me know what to do/try next.
Andy

Hello Esmi, many thanks for responding, OK the front page is a static page, and the posts page is left unselected as this website doesnt have a blog.
