Pagination list doesn't affect display of CC5 data

farmington 24 Feb, 2015
I'm using the _PAGINATOR_LIST_ option in the header code for my CC 5 table.
It shows up, but doesn't seem to affect the number of items that are displayed.

I've searched the forums and can't seem to find whether there is another setting that is needed to allow this to function properly, or what the problem might be. The other options such as _PAGINATOR_INFO_ and _PAGINATOR_NAV_ work fine on the same page.

Here is a link to the page that has the non-functioning paginator list.:

OK, to clarify... it looks like if you select a quantity from the dropdown pagination list, and then do a search followed by Submit, it works. Usually a dropdown for number of records would just immediately filter the records. Is there any way to make the pagination quantity immediate? Or do I need a submit for that as well as for the search?

I have exactly the same thought. I didn't try to search or submit, though. However, like you, if I select a number of items to display on the page, I'm expecting the change to apply immediately

It seems that besides GrayHead (and Max, sometimes), nobody is monitoring this forum to provide help. After a week of working with CC5 and CF5, they offer functionalities, but there are a lot of things that are broken, or simply there is absolutely no documentation to explain how things work. The FAQ is a starting poing but it doesn't go deep enough, IMHO...

Hi nemesyssoft,

I'm afraid that you really need Max for the CC questions. I can handle most ChronoForms question and find my way round CCv4 but CCv5 is very different and I haven't yet had the time to get enough knowledge to answer these questions :-(

Thanks, Bob.

Like farmington posted, if you happen to do a search (using the code from the FAQ) and do a submit, then the new number of rows selected will display and seems to stick. I would just have assumed that if the user select a different number of rows to display, the submit would be invoked. Not a big deal.

Hi nemesyssoft,

As I posted in another thread, when I tested it worked as you suggest, Change the drop-down and the page automatically refreshes. I'll PM you a link to my test (it's not suitable for public posting - just a messy test list).
