I feel really dumb asking this question but is it possible to put the pagination code inside an embed?  I have a site that has pagination on several templates and I don’t want to have to replicate that code in all those templates.  Here is an example of what I am trying to do.

{exp:weblog:entries weblog="articles" limit="5" orderby="date" sort="desc" paginate="both" disable="categories|category_fields|member_data|trackbacks"}

 --- the html for the page ---

 {embed="site_includes/_pagination"}

{/exp:weblog:entries}

Then in the embed I have this code:

<div id="pagination">
      <span>Go To Page</span>
      <select id="pagination_pages">
        {exp:loop_plus start="1" end="{total_pages}" increment="1"}
        <option value="{index}">{index}</option>
        {/exp:loop_plus}
      </select> 
      <span>of {total_pages}</span>
      <div class="pagination_links">
        {pagination_links}
      </div>
  </div>

I am getting {paginate}{/paginate}{paginate}{/paginate}{paginate}{/paginate} returned on the page.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

You can’t break tags up like that, no.  However, in 2.0, you could put the pagination in a snippet. =)

bummer. :(  Thanks Lisa.  I can’t wait to get my hands on 2.0 but this is a commercial site and the client is not quite ready to adopt 2.0 yet.

Follow up question… can I put pagination inside a reverse related tag? ie:

{reverse_related_entries weblog="rules_statutes" orderby="entry_date" sort="desc" paginate="both" limit="5"}

-- html --

{paginate}

{pagination_links}

{/paginate}

{/reverse_related_entries}

Hi swany10012, Pagination isn’t allowed inside reverse related entries.
