chrisamacdonaldHey All -
I am struggling with something that seams like it should be very easy - and is not. I a using a plugin for pagination (wp_paginate) and when I add it, it shows the pagination links and does not advance the active page marker in the pagination nav or the posts. So for all pages it shows page 1.
I found some code to add the current URL to the end of the page and get it to work, but it seems like a long way to go for getting and appending the page number to the post.
Here is the function I am using in functions.php:
function get_current_page() {
$pageURL = 'http';
//check what if its secure or not
if ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") {
$pageURL .= "s";
}
//add the protocol
$pageURL .= "://";
//check what port we are on
if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {
$pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
} else {
$pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];
}
//cut off everything on the URL except the last 3 characters
$urlEnd = substr($pageURL, -3);
//strip off the two forward shashes
$page = str_replace("/", "", $urlEnd);
//return just the number
return $page;
}And here is what I am using on the page to display the link:
query_posts('cat=4&paged='.get_current_page());
If anyone has an idea on how to easily get the page number without using the function I listed above or how this could be easier - please-o-please let me know!
Thanks in Advance!
Chris
