Load more button showing even when there are no more results

Unfortunately, that is the way the plugin functions.
There are several forum posts on this same ‘issue’.

Ah thanks Darren, sorry for not spotting this. I wonder though is this something that may be updated at some point down the line, or is it literally just not possible at all? Many thanks ??

No worries.
I intended to get this working for the last release but ran into a show stopper issue that I need to sort out.

Ahh it will be brilliant if you can get this working, will just make your amazing plugin even more amazing ha ha! I know I keep saying it, but you’ve done an excellent job with it, I love it!

+1 !

update: I’ve found a workaround using jQuery

$.fn.almComplete = function(alm){
	var count = $('.alm-reveal > div').length;
	if ( count < 8 ) {
		$('#load-more').hide();
	}
};

(replace 8 with your “Posts Per Page” number)

That’s essentially the same function as used in the plugin to add the .done class to the load more button.

button.done{
    display:none !important;
}

Similar, but I found that if a page initially loads with less posts than the Posts Per Page, .done is not added. It seems that the class is only added after a request for more is made.

Interesting, I haven’t seen this on initial load before.

Will have a look for it.

@dcooney
I think this is exactly my problem too.

I have the same problem, even after recent update. on some pages on initial load the button is visible although there are no more posts to show (total is less than I set in shortcode). Is there a workaround to this?

Also when there is exactly the same amount of posts as set in shortcode, the button shows, after clicking dissapears, which is bad user experience. It looks like the class .done is only applied when there is much more posts than set per page and you click to load more, then it works fine

I found when exactly it does it – where the total number of posts in category is one less than posts_per_page set in shortcode. So for example if I set it to 3, than on a page with 2 posts and 3 posts the load more button will show too. On page with 1 post it won’t.
How to fix this??

Please post a link to an example of where this is happening and our repeater template.I cannot debug without verfying the issue

Cheers,

Hey Guys,

Hope I’m not too late to answer this, but I found a way to hide the load more button if there are not enough posts.

There’s a WordPress function called wp_count_posts, which returns back the amount of posts that are published, and with that I just used an if statement to hide the ajax request if the posts were less than the five using the returned back value.

Hope it helps! ??
