wondering if you could think of a way of getting round this for both JS on and off? I’ve tried and failed!

Cheers,

I tried both of those solutions and for some reason which ever is declared first, it stays like that after that condition is met. So after paged 2… the count stops and it doesn’t acknowledge paged 3

This is driving me nutssssss. I’m still trying to figure it out. I tried using conditional statements as well with using that !not but I still get the same effect where it won’t go past paged 2..

Just read your latest post. Be sure to add more is_paged() to continue counting. This is all manual.

<?php if((is_paged(2))) {
 $count = 51;
} elseif((is_paged(3))) {
 $count = 102;
} elseif((is_paged(4))) {
 $count = 153;
} elseif((is_paged(5))) {
 $count = 204;
} else {
 $count = 1;
} ?>

Hopefully my math isn’t off too much.

Try this:

<?php if((preg_match('/\/?paged=2\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 51;
} elseif((preg_match('/\/?paged=3\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 101;
} elseif((preg_match('/\/?paged=4\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 152;
} else {
 $count = 1;
} ?>

All we are doing here is reading the address bar information. Let me know how that works.

<?php if((is_paged(2))) {
 $count = 51;
} elseif((is_paged(3))) {
 $count = 101;
} else {
 $count = 1;
} ?>

Once it gets to page 3, it stays on 51 and doesn’t go any higher than that on any page after that. Any idea on how to find a solution for this?

I figured it out! Thank you so much for your help. I set it up like this…

 
<?php if((is_paged(2))) {
 $count = 51;
} elseif((is_paged(3))) {
 $count = 101;
} else {
 $count = 1;
} ?>
<?
if (have_posts()) : while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<a href="#" onclick="scrollToEntry(<?the_ID(); ?>)"><?php echo $count; $count++;?></a>

<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

You’re too awesome! Thank you once again!

Thanks for getting back to me so soon. No one ever gets back to me on any blog! Haha.

Um, I tried to add that to my code but I was unsuccessful. My links look like this so maybe that’s why it won’t work?

http://website.com/wordpress/?paged=2

The code that I’m applying that to is

<?php 
$count = 1; 
if (have_posts()) : while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
post numbers get generated here
<a href="#" onclick="scrollToEntry(<?the_ID(); ?>)"><?php echo $count; $count++; ?></a>

<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

So once applied, it looks like this

<?php if((preg_match('/\/2\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 51;
} elseif((preg_match('/\/3\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 101;
} else {
 $count = 1;
} ?>

<?php 
$count = 1; 
if (have_posts()) : while(have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
post numbers get generated here
<a href="#" onclick="scrollToEntry(<?the_ID(); ?>)"><?php echo $count; $count++; ?></a>

<?php endwhile; endif; ?>

It’s more than likely that I’m doing something wrong here. Do you think you could help me out incorporating the additional stuff needed to make this complete?

Continue adding more page counts:

<?php if((preg_match('/\/2\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 51;
} elseif((preg_match('/\/3\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 101;
} elseif((preg_match('/\/4\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))) {
 $count = 152;
} else {
 $count = 1;
} ?>

Note that the number in this line (preg_match('/\/2\//',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI') represents something that will be shown in the address bar. For example: http://www.doc4design.com/articles/page/2/ This cold be anything from a word such as “articles” to a number such as “3″. The trick here is to find something that is unique to the page which you are on. This is why we have chosen the page number itself.
