I would like to paginate a list of reverse related entries. Is this possible?

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="my_other_weblog" limit="1"}

    {reverse_related_entries weblog="my_weblog" show_future_entries="yes" show_expired="yes" limit="5" paginate="bottom"}

        {title}<br/>
        
    {paginate}
        <p>Page {current_page} of {total_pages} pages {pagination_links}</p>
    {/paginate}    
    
    {/reverse_related_entries}
        
    {/exp:weblog:entries}

Unfortunately, this doesn’t work. I’ve tried several variations with no luck either. Anyone have any clue? Thank you for the help!

From the docs i get that pagination is limited to weblog entries, comments and the query-module (not sure, but i don’t see it mentioned at reverse or related entries). An alternative method would be a query. (see also http://expressionengine.com/wiki/Relationships:_Under_the_Hood )

Maybe the technical support forum might be a better place to query about this (pagination of reversed related entries)

i’m surprised that pagination isn’t working for you as in the documentation it says:

“Nearly anything that is available in the weblog entries tags can be shown as reverse related data.”

i suppose the “nearly” is important in this case. you could try something like this, though i haven’t tested it out.

{assign_variable:my_entry_ids=""}

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="my_other_weblog" limit="1"}

    {reverse_related_entries weblog="my_weblog" show_future_entries="yes" show_expired="yes"}

        {my_entry_ids="{my_entry_ids}|{entry_id}"}    
    
    {/reverse_related_entries}
        
{/exp:weblog:entries} 

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="my_other_weblog" entry_id="{my_entry_ids}" limit="5" paginate="bottom"}

    {title}<br/>
        
    {paginate}
        <p>Page {current_page} of {total_pages} pages {pagination_links}</p>
    {/paginate}    
    
{/exp:weblog:entries}

i have a suspicion that reassigning the variable my_entry_ids may cause problems but its worth a shot.
