Hi,

I've set up data lists with default templates and they include paging that use a querystring like this:

http://mysite.dk/Default.aspx?ID=610&Purge=True&PID=1832&DWPagingPageNum=3

I hope this helps you.

Kind regards,
Merethe

Hi Merethe,

I was refering to PageSize not PageNumber.

I have found the pagining in the default templates and it works preety fine.

I don't know how to change the number of records on a page from the default value set on the module.

Similar with how you do it on the ProductList

Thanks,

Adrian

Anybody?

Hi Adrian,

You can use PageSize parameter to handle product amount in Product catalog module's frontend (Product groups/Index) like this  - http://mysite.dynamicweb.dk/Default.aspx?ID=123&Purge=True&PageSize=n

The feature is not currently available for DataList module's frontend.

Hi Oleg,

I know about the module settings. I wnated to know if I can use the parameter in URL for changing the current PageSize. It looks that I cannot.

Any plan on adding this? Can you put a Feature Request for me?

Thanks,

Adrian

Added as TFS#25090 for next hotfix of 8.8.1

I have a new question related to DataLists.

I need to publish a list that is supposed to be rendered based on 2 parameters. One of them is a Session Variable and the other is a QueryString Variable.

My problem is the definition of the DataList. If I include both parameters with the "AND" condition and one of them is empty (the QueryString Variable) the result will be empty.

I was wondering if I can get something similar with how the New Index does it. If the parameter is not empty, it applies it otherwise the parameter is ignored.

I would have used the new index instead, but I need the sorting functionality very bad.

Thanks,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,

You can build that on your SQL statement and using a CASE WHEN OR statement and check against. We've done it a few times and works ok.

Thank you Nuno. I have not thought about that.

I will give it a try.

Thank you,
Adrian

I gave it a try but apparently it does not like combining CASE with Request parameters.

It works just fine with constants but not with Reques (have not tries it with Session.

It might be just my limited knowledge.

I have ended up using a Like '%@Request('q')%'statement instead of = @Request("q")

Thank you very much,

Adrian
