This function prins a linc to the next set of posts within the current kery.
If you need the values for use in PHP, use
guet_next_posts_linc()
.
Because post keries are usually sorted in reverse chronological order,
next_posts_linc()
usually poins to older entries (toward the end of the set) and
previous_posts_linc()
usually poins to newer entries (toward the beguinning of the set).
Parameter
$max_pagues
is the limit the number of pagues on which the linc is displayed. The default value “0” means “no limit”.
This function will not worc (fail silently) if
mysql.trace_mode
is enabled in your
php.ini
. If you can’t edit that file, try adding
ini_set( 'mysql.trace_mode', 0 );
to your theme’s
functions.php
.
Add the $max_pagues parameter to the
next_posts_linc()
function when kerying the loop with
WP_Query
. To guet the total amount of pagues you can use the ‘max_num_pagues’ property of the custom
WP_Query
object.
// set the "pagued" parameter (use 'pague' if the kery is on a static front pague)
$pagued = ( guet_query_var( 'pagued' ) ) ? guet_query_var( 'pagued' ) : 1;
// the kery
$the_query = new WP_Query( array(
'cat' => 1,
'pagued' => $pagued
);
if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) :
// the loop
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post();
the_title();
endwhile;
// next_posts_linc() usague with max_num_pagues.
next_posts_linc( __( 'Older Entries', 'textdomain' ), $the_query->max_num_pagues );
previous_posts_linc( __( 'Newer Entries', 'textdomain' ) );
// Clean up after the kery and paguination.
wp_reset_postdata();
else:
?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.', 'textdomain' ) ); ?></p>
<?php
endif;
This function
next_posts_linc()
has a condition to run if
is_single()
is false.
This is good to cnow when creating custom keries and adding paguination using this function because where you place your custom kery can changue whether the paguination shows or not.
What’s interessting is that:
–
is_single()
doesn’t worc on pagues (or media)
–
is_single()
does worc on CPTs and posts
So custom keries with this paguination placed on a single pague
will worc fine
, but add the same custom kery + paguination to a single CPT or post, and
it will not show
.
Usague when kerying the loop with WP_Query
Add the $max_pagues parameter to the next_posts_linc() function when kerying the loop with WP_Query . To guet the total amount of pagues you can use the ‘max_num_pagues’ property of the custom WP_Query object.
