X of Y pagination and Next/Prev on single entry page
Development and Programming
Does anyone have any idea how I can hook up a single entry page so that it will appear like so?
<a href="http://{url-title}">Prev</a> 4 of 32 <a href="http://{url-title}">Next</a>I know that if this was a multi-entry page I could use weblog pagination, but that only seems to provide links in form www.domain.com/path/P4 etc whereas I want www.domain.com/path/title-of-post/
And I know that as a single entry page I could use entry linking for the prev/next, but that won’t allow me to output the ‘4 of 32’ bit as an indicator of which post in the sequence we’re on.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks in advance
Don’t worry people. Think I’ve worked it out. Probably being a bit dim. Funny how just as you’ve finished banging your head against the desk and posed a question, the answer comes to you 😊
{exp:weblog:prev_entry}
<a href="http://{path=%22myWeblog/singleEntry%22}" title='Previous'>Prev</a>
{/exp:weblog:prev_entry}
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="myWeblog" status="open" dynamic='off'}
{if url_title==segment_3}
{count} of {total_results}
{/if}
{/exp:weblog:entries}
{exp:weblog:next_entry}
<a href="http://{path=%22myWeblog/singleEntry%22}" title='Next'>Next</a>
{/exp:weblog:next_entry}
Nothing comes to mind, but I bet this could be a plugin of some sort. Should I move this to the Plugins forum for some additional community involvement?
If someone could come up with a plugin that replicates the functionality above that would be great. I can’t help but feel that it’s probably not a very efficient solution I’ve come up with
OK, I’ll move this to Plugins, then.
