Essential grip: Pagination buttons not showing

[shimoda]

Hi,
This might be a basic question but I cannot find the answer to it. I set a grid with a Maximum post and a Maximum post preview both set to 4. Pagination is enabled (4 visible per row). I have set the arrows and the pagination buttons at the bottom of the grid. With this configuration the pagination buttons do not show up.

Would it be too hard for you to tell me what I am missing?

Hello @shimoda,

Thank you for the details.

Please be informed that the pagination will only appear if the number of post items loaded in the grid is greater than the maximum posts within the maximum rows. In the previous current setting, the pagination did not display because you have 4 maximum rows which would display 4 items per row yet, your maximum posts is only up to 4.

I went ahead and edited your grid.

• removed the additional parameters,
• set 12 as the maximum posts
• set 1 as the maximum rows.

If you check the grid in your homepage right now, the pagination displays and there are 4 pages. Total number of items displayed is 13 including the sticky posts.

Hope this helps.

Thanks @RueNel!

I better understand the effect of “max visible rows” on the grid. Now I have set:

• max visible rows to 2
• Maximum Posts to -1
• Maximum Posts Preview to 6

Now the grid shows, as expected, 2 rows and display pagination to display all posts. Could you tell me why it shows more than 6 posts?

Hey @shimoda,

It’s because it’s overpowered by your Column setup under the Grid Settings. I’ve changed it to 3 and the grid now displays 6 post max. You can change the rest for different screen sizes.

Hope that helps.

Thanks @christian_y to provide additional information to explain the behavior.
