Adding page navigation to the top of each thread

Zhaan

Good evening, VF!

I've got a quick question for you guys regarding page navigation (as in 'Go to page 1, 2, 4, 5' etc.) inside discussions. Basically, my problem is that these links are only displayed on the bottom of each page, and I'd like to add them to the top as well. What would be the easiest way to do this?

PS: I'm using the BitterSweet theme in 2.1.

Any input will be appreciated!

Bump! Isn't there a template or something I can edit?

I would not recommend editing the core files, but you can create a new theme and add the required view(s) to it. The one you might be interested into is /views/discussion/index.php, which is the one that displays the pager at the bottom of a thread.

Cheers, I'll try that.

Would like to know where this is created too.

I want to change the < to Prev and the > to Next

In Vanilla 2.0 it's in /views/discussion/index.php, line 16: PagerModule::Write($PagerOptions);

class.pagermodule.php

line 117:

  $this->MoreCode = '›';
  $this->LessCode = '‹';

line 244:

  $PreviousText = T($this->LessCode);
  $NextText = T($this->MoreCode);

Is that what you were looking for?

It is, I have it in front of me, in class.pagermodule.php. Of course, you don't have to modify that file to make it work, you should be able change the text as follows:

// $PagerOptions initialised before this line
$PagerOptions['MoreCode'] = 'Next';
$PagerOptions['LessCode'] = 'Prev';
PagerModule::Write($PagerOptions);

Yer all done now, fixed, just changing the crappy span tags they use. And adding no hover. Cheers mate
