Hello…

I’m using the {exp:weblog:next_entry} and {exp:weblog:prev_entry} tags to add some pagination to my site.  When you’re at the last entry, the next_entry tag doesn’t output anything.  I would like to display a disabled “next” button instead.  How would I do this?

Is there a conditional within the next_entry tag that I could use?  Something like the {if no_results} functionality of the weblog:entries tag?  Or is there some other way to do this?

I am having the same problem - can anyone help?

Thanks

Steve

Hey Steve…

I was able to work around this.  I just tested for the {title} variable inside the {exp:weblog:next_entry} loop .  If it’s blank we know that there is no output so you can put your disabled button in there.

{exp:weblog:next_entry}
  {if title == ""} No results{/if}
  The next entry is {title}.
{/exp:weblog:next_entry}

There should be a way to do this natively though.  I’ll add a feature request later, perhaps.

Spoke too soon…that doesn’t really work.  I should have tested that before I posted.  Sorry 😊

There is a workaround here.

Yeah - its a bit iffy doing it through PHP. I think I would just rather stick a “back to news” links in and do it that way - its neater.

Thanks for your help Benjamin
