pagination location

I’m having trouble getting pagination to show up where I want it. I have a portfolio page with a table of entries. Right now the pagination is appearing in the top left corner, before the first table cell. I’d like to be able to show it in a different location, possibly in the lower right below the table. Any suggestions on how to go about it? It doesn’t matter what the pagination parameter is set to, it always shows up at the top of the table. Thanks.

<table id="port_table">
<body><tr>
{exp:channel:entries channel="default_site" show category="6" limit="6" paginate="bottom"}

<td id="port_cell"><a href="http://{url_title_path=blog/comments}">{portfolio_image}__<h3>{title}</h3><p></a><br />
 <br />
{summary}</td><br />
{if count == "3"}</tr><tr>{/if} <br />
{if count == "6"}</tr><tr>{/if} <br />
{if count == "9"}</tr>{/if} <br />
 {paginate}<br />
        {if previous_page}<br />
            <a href="http://{auto_path}">Previous Page</a><br />
        {/if}<br />
        {if next_page}<br />
            <a href="http://{auto_path}">Next Page</a><br />
        {/if}<br />
 {/paginate}<br />
{/exp:channel:entries}<br />
</body><br />
</table><br />
</div>

Hi pmerritt,

Give this a try:

<table id="port_table">
<tbody><tr>
{exp:channel:entries channel="default_site" show category="6" limit="6" paginate="bottom"}

<td id="port_cell"><a href="http://{url_title_path=blog/comments}">{portfolio_image}__<h3>{title}</h3><p></a><br />
 <br />
{summary}</td><br />
{if count == "3"}</tr><tr>{/if} <br />
{if count == "6"}</tr><tr>{/if} <br />
{if count == "9"}</tr>{/if}<br />
<tr><td colspan="3"> <br />
 {paginate}<br />
        {if previous_page}<br />
            <a href="http://{auto_path}">Previous Page</a><br />
        {/if}<br />
        {if next_page}<br />
            <a href="http://{auto_path}">Next Page</a><br />
        {/if}<br />
 {/paginate}<br />
</td></tr><br />
{/exp:channel:entries}<br />
</tbody><br />
</table>

I wrapped the paginate code into a table row and cell that will span the 3 columns. I also changed “body” to “tbody” since it was inside the table, I thought that would be your intent.

Let me know if that checks out!

Cheers,

Well, I gave it a try but it didn’t work for me. It seems to have changed the table rows somehow. Instead of having two rows of three images, it switched to 6 rows of individual images. And the pagination was still at the top. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Phillip

Try this:

<table id="port_table">
<tbody><tr>
{exp:channel:entries channel="default_site" show category="6" limit="6" paginate="bottom"}

<td id="port_cell"><a href="http://{url_title_path=blog/comments}">{portfolio_image}__<h3>{title}</h3><p></a><br />
 <br />
{summary}</td><br />
{if count == "3"}</tr><tr>{/if} <br />
{if count == "6"}</tr><tr>{/if} <br />
{if count == "9"}</tr>{/if}<br />
 {paginate}<br />
<tr><td colspan="3"> <br />
        {if previous_page}<br />
            <a href="http://{auto_path}">Previous Page</a><br />
        {/if}<br />
        {if next_page}<br />
            <a href="http://{auto_path}">Next Page</a><br />
        {/if}<br />
</td></tr><br />
 {/paginate}<br />
{/exp:channel:entries}<br />
</tbody><br />
</table>

Just moved the opening and closing table row tags at the end inside the pagination tags so they only display when the pagination is displayed.
