Suggesting a little tweak to the pagination system here

Postby beggers » 14 Mar 2008, 21:46

I can't figure out what page I'm currently on when I look at the pagination in the bottom right corner:

Code: Select all
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ... 17  Next


How about making the current page number a different color? I realize that the current page info is over on the left side ("Page 1 of 6") but it would be much more convenient to indicate the current page on the pagination/navigation section, especially when we're jumping around long topics trying to find something. :)

I would have to say that I agree with you.

The page number that I'm on, the text is black and the other page numbers have dark blue text.
And when you mouse over them they are underlined.
I have ran my mouse over the numbers to see what page I was on by seeing which one didn't underline.

This is a good suggestion IMO.

That's exactly what I do -- I forgot to mention that. :)

Have you tried to change the color of the text in the pagination.html?
Your links there are set to a color so they should stay the same.

See if this works, change the first part of that code:
Code: Select all
<!-- IF PAGINATION --><b>

CHANGE TO

<!-- IF PAGINATION --><b style="color: #00AA00;">
I haven't tried this so let us know what that does. Give us a screen shot of it.

Edit: I just tried it out and it will change the page you are on to that color along with the , and ... just put in the color you want.

Perfect! That's exactly what needs to be changed on StarTrekGuide.com! That was my point of the original post. If we can get that changed here, life will be good. :thumbsup:

Which style are you using? In prosilver, it has boxes around the numbers, and the box is filled in if you are on it...

Well I was going to switch to prosilver and see the difference but I can't switch styles in the UCP.
But looking at it with ?style=1 the selected page you are on has a blue box around it.
We'll come up with something like that for our subsilver2 styles. No problem beggers. This is doable!
