EPiServer:PageList Paging - Alloy Tech Blog Example

Vote:

Hello everyone,

I am having some problems add a pager to the EPiServer pagelist on the Alloy Tech blog example. The pager appears and initilizes correctly but when it posts back it doesn't update the page index:
http://kga.fr.emperor-design.com/en/Company/CEO-Blog/

Here is the orginal control:

<EPiServer:PageList runat="server" DataSource="<%# BlogItems %>" MaxCount="<%# MaxCount %>">
	<ItemTemplate>
		<hr />
                <Blog:ItemSummary runat="server" SelectedPage="<%# Container.CurrentPage %>" SummaryTextLength="<%# SummaryTextLength %>" ShowImage="false" ShowWriter="false" />
        </ItemTemplate>
</EPiServer:PageList>

    

I have simple added the following:

<EPiServer:PageList runat="server" DataSource="<%# BlogItems %>" MaxCount="<%# MaxCount %>" Paging="true" PagesPerPagingItem="1">
	<ItemTemplate>
		<hr />
                <Blog:ItemSummary runat="server" SelectedPage="<%# Container.CurrentPage %>" SummaryTextLength="<%# SummaryTextLength %>" ShowImage="false" ShowWriter="false" />
        </ItemTemplate>
</EPiServer:PageList>

    
 
In addition the PageDataCollection BlogItems is protected; I changed this to public static.
 
I am not sure what else it can be?
 
Thanks,
Andy

I think the problem is with DataBinding. Try and set the DataSource from code-behind instead:

<EPiServer:PageList runat="server" ID="BlogPostList" MaxCount="<%# MaxCount %>" Paging="true" PagesPerPagingItem="1">
	<ItemTemplate>
	  <hr />
		<Blog:ItemSummary runat="server" SelectedPage="<%# Container.CurrentPage %>" SummaryTextLength="<%# SummaryTextLength %>" ShowImage="false" ShowWriter="false" />
	</ItemTemplate>
</EPiServer:PageList>

protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
{
	base.OnLoad(e);

	BlogPostList.DataSource = BlogItems;

	...
}
