Pager.html not working well

[frodriguezsmartclip]

Hi there,

The example site, content of blog site, the button's pagination Next and Prev not working well:

https://example.docsy.dev/blog/2018/10/06/easy-documentation-with-docsy/

The code of pager.html is this (located in themes\docsy\layouts\partials\pager.html):

<ul class="list-unstyled d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center mb-0 pt-5">
  <li>
    <a {{if .PrevInSection}}href="{{.PrevInSection.RelPermalink}}"{{end}} class="btn btn-primary {{if not .PrevInSection}} disabled{{end}}"><span class="mr-1">←</span> {{ T "ui_pager_prev" }}</a>
  </li>
    <a {{if .NextInSection}}href="{{.NextInSection.RelPermalink}}"{{end}} class="btn btn-primary {{if not .NextInSection}} disabled{{end}}">{{ T "ui_pager_next" }} <span class="ml-1">→</span></a>
  </li>
</ul>

The order is changed. I don't know if it's because of the weight, or why not ... But I think it may be due to the order-content that Hugo has set by default...

In every filename.md the weigth order first (hugo docs) is:

Lower weight gets higher precedence. So content with lower weight will come first.

I have all these content-files ordered ascending by weight... but the prev/next change the order....

The same thing happens with the docs section, if you put the page...

Any ideas to fix it? Thank you! 😃

Meanwhile, changing order fix this issue for me:

<ul class="list-unstyled d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center mb-0 pt-5">
  <li>
    <a {{if .NextInSection}}href="{{.NextInSection.Permalink}}"{{end}} class="btn {{if .NextInSection}} btn-primary{{end}} {{if not .NextInSection}} btn-dark disabled{{end}}"><span class="mr-1">←</span> {{ T "ui_pager_prev" }}</a>        
  </li>
    <a {{if .PrevInSection}}href="{{.PrevInSection.Permalink}}"{{end}} class="btn {{if .PrevInSection}} btn-primary{{end}} {{if not .PrevInSection}} btn-dark disabled{{end}}">{{ T "ui_pager_next" }} <span class="ml-1">→</span></a>
  </li>
</ul>

It would be nice, have a next/prev button for going to the next section, not inside the section... Navigate through everything docs section (for example)

If you accept my answer, we can close this issue.

Have a nice day!! 😄

Thanks for the feedback! So in our example site, the blog is ordered by date of publication. The previous button brings you to the previously published post - the post you gave the screenshot of (Announcing Docsy) doesn't have a "next" post as it's the most recent post in that section.

Obviously if you want to order it differently you can override the partial, as you did!

A next/previous button for the docs section (or a next section button) would probably be simple enough to implement if enough people wanted it - feel free to create an issue in the theme repo if you're interested. https://github.com/google/docsy/issues/
