2 QUestions: 1.) Pagination 2.) Customize the list template

The plugin doesn’t interact with the meta titles with it’s pagination, so you don’t get a different title with each page of records.

For your second question, while I encourage you to learn how to use PHP, I can’t supply you with all the details to do what you want to do, I’ll just give you the basic idea and you can take it from there.

Before the loop starts, set a variable to ‘0’: $i = 0 Then at the end of the loop (just before the “endwhile”) increment the variable: $i = $i + 1 then in the spot where you want to insert your HTML at the right time, test the variable: if ($i == 7) { // do something }

Thanks for the quick response

1.) What file would I need to edit to change the pagination? Would it be possible to replace the code that currently breaks the lists into multiple pages, with “<!–nextpage–>”. WordPress automatically edits the meta titles when that is used. I think this would also make the URLs look a little nicer when you click thru the multiple pages of a list.

2.) Thanks. I am new to coding but I should have been able to think of that.

I would advise against modyfying the plugin directly, especially if you’re not a strong coder. Take a look at the WordPress filter for setting a post title and put a function in your theme that changes the title if it’s a plugin data page.

In case anyone is ever interested, here is how I accomplished #2 above, in my pdb-list template file. The below code is placed right before the 3rd <td>. In my code below, it adds the additional code between entry 7 and 8 on all pages, when showing 15 rows per page. You could change the #s to fit your need.

//code I added
<?php $listnumber=8; ?>

//code already in template
<tbody>
<?php while ( $this->have_records() ) : $this->the_record(); // each record is one row ?>

//code I added
<?php $listnumber= $listnumber + 1; ?>
<?php
if ($listnumber == 16){ ?>
<td> YOUR CODE HERE <td/>
<?php $listnumber=0;
} ?>

xnau – I think #1 is probably beyond what I can accomplish. Do you accept payment for additional work on this plugin? If so, how should I contact you for this?

Here is exactly what I am hoping to do. Lets say I have a 5 page list on “xyz.com/list”

I would like the meta title to update on page 2 as “META TITLE | Page 2 of 5 | SITE TITLE” and then the URL to update with xyz.com/list/2

Thanks for all your help.

After doing more research, it looks like I may have been wrong above about WordPress updating the Meta Titles when using pagination. It looks like its the “WordPress SEO” plugin thats doing it.

Ah, that makes sense. I’m not taking any side work at this time, so I can’t help you out…what you want to do is pretty tricky and may not be worth the effort in terms of SEO value. The addition of the pagination variable in the URL should be enough to distinguish the page as different.

OK, thanks. It probably doesn’t make a huge difference but if you are taking recommendations for additional functionality in the future, I would love to add this to the list. Any additional SEO value is always appreciated.

Thanks for the great plugin and the help
