Hi,

If you could attach the .php file you're working with and provide a url to an example, I can take a closer look for you.

Thanks

Hi,

I haven't been able to recreate your issue. When I do a search for everything, I get two pages. Going to the second page doesn't only displays 3 results. Going back and forth between the two pages doesn't seem to cause an issue either.

Could you give me some more background on exactly what search you're doing when you encounter this problem?

Thanks

Hi,

The problem you're getting here is that on your individual page links, you're not maintaining your search query, which is why all your results are being displayed.

We can get around this by using some code Chris posted here:

http://www.interactivetools.com/forum/gforum.cgi?post=83903#83903

Using this, we can change our foreach loop to look like this:

<?php foreach (range(1,$vehiclesMetaData['totalPages']) as $page): ?>
<?php if ($page == $current_page): ?>
<span class="pagination"><strong><?php echo $page; ?></strong></span>
<?php else: ?>
<span class="pagination"><strong><a href="?<?php echo http_build_query(array_merge($_REQUEST, array( 'page' => $page ))) ?>"><?php echo $page; ?></a></strong></span>
<?php endif ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>

This will maintain your search options.

Hope this helps
