New Pagination System Launched - Posted By Ross (admin) on 3rd Apr 08 at 7:46pm
A new pagination system has been implemented on all forums. This new system brings a number of improvements compared to the old one.

Standardised Layout - Everywhere which has multiple pages such as the thread listing, threads themselves and the member list now uses the same layout for navigating between pages no matter now many pages in total there are.

Search Engine Friendly - The new system can be followed by search engines helping them to index the content on your forum. The old system was only search engine compatible for the first 10 pages.

Smoother Navigation - The new pagination enables you to scroll along the list of pages (when there's more than 5) to the page you require. To do this, just click the « and » arrows. For those of you who don't remember, on the old system you'd have to either use a drop down menu or there would have been no links to some pages.

If you'd like to see an example of this new feature, check out the General Board

I actually used yours to work out how best to do mine {Tongue Out} And I did have the big advantage of being able to implement as much as possible server side {Wink}

I like the idea, it is a lot cleaner and more organized than some of the ones that I've seen.

The only suggestion that I have is to align everything to left instead of centered so that it doesn't keep shifting around when you use it. And maybe put an extra space after the single digit pages, just to keep it from stretching and stuff.

That looks quite sexy; only thing I see missing are arrows to scroll to the first & last pages. {Wink}

Can you give them all the class "pages", please? {Smile}

Also can you make the current page be (unlinked|bolded|both) ? {Smile}
