Invision-like page numbers

[paulmjno]

Hey all.

I think Invision Board (or some other software) displays page numbers on the thread listing in the following way, if there are 14 pages, for example:

1,2,3 ... 12,13,14

Surely there is a hack like this for vB, right? I think this method makes far more sense, and can be extremely convenient.

I will second this, not that something doesn't exist for it but if it does, I haven't been able to find it. It's been brought up a couple of times before.

I think this is already done in vbulletin options.

Number of Pages Visible in Page Navigator

no it's not

Works that way on my forums, not sure what else you're looking for.

this is a typical vb pagination system:
Page 1 of 1131 | 1 | 2 | 3 | > | Last | » |

what he wants is
Page 1 of 1131 | 1 | 2 | 3 | ... | 1127 | 1129 | 1130 | 1131 |

This is controlled by your pagenav templates, however I believe a query would have to be created to grab the last x number of pages, then displayed. If I were home I would like to attempt it :)

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Don't think an extra query would be needed. The total number of pages are already available, so the last 3 could be displayed.

Does anyone happen to be up to the challenge of writing this hack? I would, if I could..

I agree. The 3 pagenav templates and in includes/functions.php
function construct_page_nav
needs to be re-written entirely, tried it, failed miserably.. but that should do it.

is this possible in 3.5 ?
