My URL structure is: http://mysite.com/news/archive/2009/ where news is a template group and archive is template.

My entries tag is:

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="news" dynamic="off" year="{segment_3}" disable="categories|category_fields|member_data|trackbacks" limit="5"}

How do I paginate these, just the links “older entries” and “newer entries”?

{paginate}
{if previous_page}<a href="http://{auto_path}">Newer Entries</a>{/if}
{if next_page}<a href="http://{auto_path}">Older Entries</a>{/if}
{/paginate}

If I click older entries at the moment I will get a url like this:
http://mysite.com/news/archive/2009/P5/

and then this:
http://mysite.com/news/archive/2009/P5/P5/

BC Team,

If I click older entries at the moment I will get a url like this:
http://mysite.com/news/archive/2009/P5/

That looks correct. Is it limiting it to 5?
The segment P5 isn’t sequential 1,2,3 etc but related to your entry limit when paginating

and then this:
http://mysite.com/news/archive/2009/P5/P5/

This I believe is because you are removing index.php via a htaccess. You will need to update your htaccess to take pagination into account.

You can test this by disabling your htaccess and adding index.php back into your URL structure

Since you are using dynamic=“off” you need to specify the paginate=”” parameter as well.

Thanks for the assist, silenz.

BC Team, do John and silenz’s instructions help?

Thanks, my htaccess was ok:

RewriteCond $1 ^(template_groups|P[0-9]{2,8}) [NC]

it was because I was missing the paginate=“bottom” when using dynamic=“off”

Thanks for the support

Glad your up and running.
