Hi Anthony,
Thanks for getting back on the topic.
Unfortunately, that is not the case. The following piece of script is currently in use on Type/Group Format:
<li><a href="%previous_page_href%" class="%previous_page_href^notempty: ^empty:hidden%">%previous_page% «</a></li>
<li><a href="%next_page_href%" >%next_page% »</a></li>
...and that actually prints only &'aquo; linked to current asset. So, although I can count/print the items in the list (using e.g. %asset_name_listing%, %group_listing%...) they are not being pulled for previous/next pager on this occasion.
Since it is rather long story, I'll try to keep it short and sweet. Imagine this situation:
Site;
Index
Category#1 [Standard Page;]
Sub-Cat [Standard Page or Folder]
Content Page[Standard Page as child asset]
Content Page[Standard Page as child asset]
Content Page[Standard Page as child asset]
Content Page[Standard Page as child asset]
[etc..]
Sub-Cat [Standard Page or Folder]
Sub-Cat [Standard Page or Folder]
Sub-Cat [Standard Page or Folder]
[etc...]
Category#2 - Parent Asset;
Category#3 - Parent Asset;
[etc...]
The task on hand is to create a pager that allows back and forth navigation for Sub-Cat's children pages. As a part of the design and users' journey we list all topics (Content Pages) on Sub Cat as well as Content pages - this is achieved by basic asset listing and <ol> markup followed by related content. However, when on Content Page we are also looking to allow next/previous page linking in between all asset grouped under that Parent Asset [Sub Cat], which currently seems to be an issue.
As mentioned in my opening the system counts asset in the list fine and displays correct results if I use any other keywords e.g. %group_name_linked% => Sub-Cat...
So, it's clear that the pager list set up doesn't seem to be able to pick up the siblings group, hence the configuration must be flowed somewhere - the question is where? Also, what would be preferred way of creating a pager and/or pagination in matrix? I'd appreciate a nice guide...
Hope this explains in greater detail where we are at.
I am happy to share more should you need to.
Cheers.
