I'm sure this has been answered before, but I cannot find anything via search. I am helping out with a site that I didn't set up, so I don't know what changes have been made that might have caused this problem, please be patient. :) <b>Problem:</b> In the admin area, I am presented with the exact same set of results for every page when I click on a Next>> link. The offset is reflected in the URL, but the list of children does not change. Nothing shows up in debug mode, and the public-facing Web site doesn't have this pagination problem, so I'm sure it is a template or override setting somewhere, but I don't know where.
<b>System Info:</b>
Exponential 3.4.1
PHP 4.34 A pointer in the right direction would be much appreciated!

I've had this problem on several occasions before as well. I experienced this breakdown with the Admin -> Set up -> Advanced -> Templates -> At the bottom the Template List ( Next » 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ...43 ) Though I've never found a reasonable solution, I also would very much like to hear from others who have encountered this problem before and know just how they resolved the problem.

Note, even if I type in the URL manually it doesn't work. For example, if I input the URL: https://mysite.com/PathToAdmin/content/view/full/87/(offset)/15 I am presented with the first fifteen options instead of the next group of items.

Hrrrrm, the problem appears to be due to the parentheses used in the URL, when I hit https://mysite.com/PathToAdmin/content/view/full/87/<b>offset</b>/15 I have no problems. Alex

To further answer my own question / ask another one... The issue appears to crop up depending on the value of <i>AllowUserVariables</i> under <i>[ControlSettings]</i> within template.ini. The standard tempalte <i>navigator/google.tpl</i> checks this ini setting and outputs a link format according to the value. If it is set to <i>true</i> then it includes parentheses in the URL, if set to false, they are left out: offset_text=eq( ezini( 'ControlSettings', 'AllowUserVariables', 'template.ini' ), 'true' )|choose( '/offset/', '/(offset)/' )}
Is this how it is supposed to work? If so, how do we use offset while allowing user variables? If not, what other things could be causing this? Thanks!

Boy do I feel dumb,
Alex, (this is all way to familiar)
Only now do I remember replacing /(offset)/ with /offset/ the first time I solved this bug on the eZ Pub. At the time it seemed like I had done something else wrong. cause . . . After some searches and reading on ez.no it seemed that eZ systems had internationally switched from /offset/ to /(offset)/ on <b>purpose</b>. Which I didn't understand, why the new style didn't work for me or why others didn't have the same problems . . . . so the debug session and results didn't stick / make it over into my long term memory.
So . . . Does anyone else care to comment on which style works for them?
Or . . . Possible reasons why the /(offset)/ style would not work? //kracker memento

Well then . . . Today I was able to place a template.ini.append.php file in the settings/override/ directory which seemed to change the offset link style used in /navigator/google.tpl It was interesting to find that I could get this file to work if the template.ini.append.php file was in the /settings/override/ it didn't seem to work when the override was only in /settings/siteaccess/YourSiteDesign_admin/ or /settings/siteaccess/admin/ .

Then I . . . Realized that if I could not set the AllowUserVariables for just the admin site design (see above problem posts about the problem) the user site would also get /offset/ style as well which just so happens to break the user site... Seems like the User site needs the /(offset)/ style and the Admin site needs the /offset/ style. Why can't they use the same style? Why would one style work but the other style would not? So I avoided the problem by changing my full_folder.tpl's page_limit from 11 to 20 (override: /node/view/full.tpl) which I had planed to earlier anyway to make the site more readable (20 may be a bit large but then i'm avoiding the for mentioned problem with the offset links. And I still don't quite understand why . . //kracker Ice Cube : You Can Do It

Perhaps it is related to the use of nice URLs as well? I think there may be a correlation. So, for example, the parentheses are used if your URL is mysite.com/blog/(offset)/20 but wouldn't be used for mysite.com/PathToAdmin/content/view/full/87/offset/20 Thoughts?
