About this plugin
Replaces the plain ← Older Comments | Newer Comments → links with numbered page links.
Example: Page 1 of 20: [1] 2 3 4... Last
It is the comment-thread counterpart of WP-PageNavi, and the two are deliberately built the same way, down to the names of the filters that change the class names.
The plugin icon is by Freepik from Flaticon.
Features
- Numbered page links instead of two prev/next links
- A drop-down list style, for threads with a great many pages
- Every piece of the navigation’s text is configurable, including inline SVG arrows
- Larger page numbers — 10, 20, 30 — for jumping across a long thread
- Ten filters for the element class names, one for the finished markup
- One stylesheet that serves both left-to-right and right-to-left locales, restyled with two CSS custom properties
Donations
I spent most of my free time creating, updating, maintaining and supporting these plugins, if you really love my plugins and could spare me a couple of bucks, I will really appreciate it. If not feel free to use it without any obligations.
Usage
php and produces nothing anywhere else.
It also accepts an array of arguments:
>
Pass 'echo' => false to get the markup back as a string instead of printing it.
Changing the CSS
css:
:root { --wp-commentnavi-border-color: #d0d0d0; --wp-commentnavi-border-color-current: #c0392b; }
css and edit it there. Your changes then survive plugin updates, and a copy in a child theme wins over one in the parent theme.
css to No on the settings screen and write the styles yourself.
