Add Search & Pagination

Break Up Large File Lists & Add Search

The Search & Pagination extension adds searching and pagination functionality to Simple File List Pro. It is designed to make very large file lists much more manageable.

Search

Upon activation, a search box will appear above your file list. The file search can be based on name and/or a date range, if the date column is displayed as shown here. The use of wildcards is also supported. Example: .jpg would find all jpg and jpeg files.

Note – If the date column is not displayed in the file list (configured in the main plugin settings), the date inputs will not appear.

Pagination

Pagination controls will appear below the list, plus a total count of the files. You define the size of each sub-page in the main plugin’s settings.

Settings

The extension adds three new options to the Display Settings page…

• Enable Search: Show or hide the search panel
• Enable Pagination: Organize the file list into smaller pages
• Files per Page: Choose how many files to show per page

Styling

As with the Simple File List tradition. The styling of the search and pagination should take on that of your theme. If not, you can use these CSS classes to get it looking just right.
