RE: ExpressionEngine 1.6.7, Build 20090211

Hey guys,

I’m using very simple code to add pagination:

{paginate}
    {pagination_links}
{/paginate}

I have approx. 12 entries in this particular weblog and am limiting the weblog:entries tag by 5.  So, among other thinga I should be getting links that link to:

example.com/weblog/P2
example.com/weblog/P3

Instead, I’m getting links to:
example.com/weblog/P5
example.com/weblog/P10

When I change the limit to 3, I get links to:
example.com/weblog/P3
example.com/weblog/P6

So, it seems that the links are being formed as multiples of the limit.  When I use the {auth_path} variables inside the proper conditionals, I get the same result.

Any ideas?

Yes, it is counting the number of entries and offsetting the query by what is in the URL.

So, I’m wrong in expecting page 2 to have P2 in the URL? Page 3 to have P3? Etc…

Yes, if you limit to 5 entries per page, think of it more as beginning after Post 5 on the second page.

I don’t know why I’ve never noticed that before.  I might put in a feature request so that the links are more intuitive.

For now, close this one out.  😊

Sounds good.  Please don’t hesitate to start a new thread if anything else comes up.  😊
