Splitting products onto multiple pages

[Ben Colman]

Probably a common request, but how can I limit the number of products on display on a particular page, with the typical FORWARD 1,2,3 BACK type buttons at the top / bottom to help navigate that page?

I don't want to create any more product sections as I already have too many!

The section in question is Playmobil on www.enchanted-wood.co.uk.

Anyone kind enough to reply, could you please let me know where any coding you propose has to be inserted placed and where to find the relevant template - all Double Dutch to me!

Thanks

Hi Folks,

I too, have been looking for the very same requirement.

Despite much input by some of the top forum users, this requirement is achievable but in NOT a very good way, however i am still awaiting some feedback.

There is also a thread by 'kevine', on the same need.

The answer provided by Pinbrook, (with the greatest respect), does not solve the problem in two ways;
a) secondary, tertiary pages show at the Parent Section Level, which is stupid,
b) you will require multiple primary templates to stop Previous and Next falling off the 'ends' of your section and linking to no where. Which is not the end of the world but the Advance User Guide does not deal with this.

Goto this thread and we will see if we can get an appropriate complete answer.
