Hello. I am getting the following error when I try and use {if previous_page} or {if next_page} in our base EE install. This started occurring with the upgrade to 2.5.3.

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Warning
Message: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given
Filename: libraries/Functions.php
Line Number: 2711

Any thoughts before I start digging? Thanks!

Hello Michael,

Thank you for submitting your question.

Can you show me the code you are using? I would like to see how you are calling the pagination. Is this in the comments or channel entries?

I tested both in ExpressionEngine 2.5.3 and I am not seeing this at all.

The line called out is dealing with conditionals, do you see the error when you go to the page or when you click on a pagination link?

Please let me know.

Cheers,

Removing the conditionals seems to resolve the problem without issue and apparently they are unnecessary anyway as they don’t show unless applicable withing the tag pair. Thanks.

i have the same problem.

Code is

{if previous_page}
 {previous_page}
  <a href="http://{pagination_url}class=pagination_page">« prev</a>
 {/previous_page}
{if:else}
 <span class="pagination_page e-pagination_disable">« prev</span>
{/if}
{if next_page}
 {next_page}
  <a href="http://{pagination_url}class=pagination_page">next »</a>
 {/next_page}
{if:else}
 <span class="pagination_page e-pagination_disable">next »</span>
{/if}

When i’m login in admin panel and have pagination in entry tag it shows error “Line Number: 2711”. After logout it works fine. When i remove all condition tags {if previous_page} and {if next_page} it works fine even when i login.

So i removed all conditions cause they actually even don’t work, and i’ve never seen disable type of link which in {if:else} block.

Hi Julia2986,

Welcome to the Forums!

After removing the conditionals in your code, is everything OK for you?

Cheers,

Hi Dan,

yes, after removing conditionals it works fine, but what if i want to display something when there is no previous or next page?

Hey Julia2986,

Interesting. What version of ExpressionEngine are you currently using?

Cheers,

Hey Shane,
i’m using EE v2.5.3 - Build Date: 20120911

Hi Julia2986,

It doesn’t look like there’s a conditional here that will let you display some bit of text if there isn’t a previous/next page. Perhaps that’s something worth putting in a Feature Request for?
