Magazine Grid

Hi there,

What if you do this instead?:

function my_function_for_excluding_posts( $query ) {
    if ($query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() && ! $query->is_paged()) {
        $offset = 4;
        $paged = 0 == $query->get( 'paged' ) ? 1 : $query->get( 'paged' );
        $query->set( 'offset', $paged * $offset );
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_function_for_excluding_posts' );

function myprefix_adjust_offset_pagination($found_posts, $query) {
    if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() && ! $query->is_paged() ) {
        return $found_posts - 5;
    }
    return $found_posts;
}
add_filter('found_posts', 'myprefix_adjust_offset_pagination', 1, 2 );

Let me know :)

Thanks Tom, this php has improved a lot compared to the previous one, almost perfect.

But there is a detail that needs to be improved to be perfect, from the 1st to the 2nd the last 4 motifs on page 1 appear at the top of page 2. But this only happens on page 2 on the others pages, everything is fine.

I left the plugin active to, if you want, can see what i am talking about on https://focusmsn.pt

Thanks a lot

Hmm, this is a complicated one.

What about this?:

function my_function_for_excluding_posts( $query ) {
    if ($query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query()) {
        $query->set( 'offset', 4 );
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_function_for_excluding_posts' );

function myprefix_adjust_offset_pagination($found_posts, $query) {
    if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() && ! $query->is_paged() ) {
        return $found_posts - 4;
    }
    return $found_posts;
}
add_filter('found_posts', 'myprefix_adjust_offset_pagination', 1, 2 );

Hi Tom, it is the same. :(

What about now?: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/magazine-grid-2/#post-1278117

With this one always repeat the page 1 in all pages, is worse.

If you see it is impossible to solve i give up.

Let's try to break down the logic a bit.

On the first page, we have the 4 featured posts at the top.

The next section should display the rest of the posts, minus those 4.

On the second/third etc.. pages, do you want those 4 featured posts to change? Shouldn't the featured posts only be on the first page? That way the query shouldn't need to change on the other pages.

What if the featured posts were tagged as "featured", and the regular posts excluded anything tagged as "featured"? That way you could just tag/untag as needed.

Hi Tom, you didn't understood the problem.

Forget the 4 featured posts ok.

On the first page i have 18 posts.
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17 and 18 right ?

When i went in page 2 instead the first post was the 19 appear the 15,16,17,18,19 and só on.

Conclusion the 4 first post are the same of the page 1.

But that ONLY happens when i change the page 1 to page 2 in the next pages it is right.

If you go at https://focusmsn.pt you could see that.

Thanks.

And does that issue go away if you remove our custom functions above?

Yes, disappear. :)

If you see you can't solve this situation no problem, leave it.

I like the first page like that, even repeating 4 posts on the second page.

It shouldn't be repeating like that on the second page. Do you have any other functions added?

I think not, it is strange because only happens the page 1 for page 2.

Forget that, i think this is a challenge for you to improve the theme because have others do this for default.

Thanks a lot for the help. Hug

No problem - let me know if you ever want to re-visit it :)
