Disabling the ellipses

  • It would be nice if you could disable the ellipses functionality and just ALWAYS have something like this:

    Prev 1 2 3 4 5 Next

    …regardless if there is 20 pages or 5; having an ellipses forced onto you makes mobile display more difficult; optionally being able to have different displays depending on mobile/desktop would be even better.

    We can look into that. Can you post a link that we can view the page links on mobile?

    Thanks for the prompt response.

    The site isn’t live yet, but I can send you a screenshot or send you a staging site link by email/private message if you prefer?

    Thank you for the link. I’m not sure when we would have an opportunity to add a settings option to not show the ellipses, but there is a quick way for you to remove it. Edit wp-paginate.php and change line 359 from

    $ellipsis = "<li><span class='gap'>...</span></li>";
    to
    $ellipsis = "";

    Thanks Alan.

    Only trouble with that is you would be editing core files and when you release an update the changes would be wiped. ??

    Yes, but we do not release very many updates for wp-paginate and this suggestion will address your issue immediately.

    Ok thanks.

    I have done that for now.

    If you ever decide to update it to be more mobile friendly, I think it would be cool to be able to select different settings for mobile; as ideally it would be nice to still include the ellipses, but reduce the “page range” for example, as it’s kinda annoying not being able to get back to the first page once you’re several pages deep in.
