Page Navigation
Syntax and Usage
The simplest usage is this:
[<>]
It will include a navigation bar to browse through all pages in a namespace, displaying all buttons as shown above.
To control which buttons are shown, you can place a number inside the angle brackets:
[<2>]
The following numbers are recognized:
| number | shown buttons |
|---|---|
| 2 | previous, next |
| 4 | first, last |
| 6 | first, previous, next, last |
| 8 | start |
| 10 | previous, start, next |
| 12 | first, start, last |
If you want to restrict browsing on pages matching a certain regular expression you can give the expression separated by a space inside the square brackets. E.g. to browse only pages starting with a you could use this:
[<> ^a.*]
Notes
The navigation is cached with the page. When new pages are added to the namespace, the navigation might be wrong until the cache expires. Read caching on how to update the cache manually.
You can now use this plugin inside a sidebar (for templates that have one). To make it work in a sidebar you have to disable caching for that sidebar completely using the ~~NOCACHE~~ macro in the sidebar page. You should also make sure the sidebar is set up to be hidden through the hidepages option.
Using this plugin together with namespace templates might be useful.
