Pagination

[hbdev]

Hello All,

How pagination is added to lising pages???

[borisrorsvort]

its using gem "will_paginate", ">= 3.0.pre2" if i'm not mistakened

[hbdev]

ok but is have to set per page value, how do I set that??

[gregbell]

You can set the default_per_page in config/initializers/active_admin.rb. Eg:

# config/initializers/active_admin.rb
config.default_per_page = 100

If you want to do this on a per resource basis, you can set it through an instance variable (Note this is probably going to be updated in future releases so it may break at some point):

ActiveAdmin.register Post do
  before_filter :only => :index do
    @per_page = 100
  end
end

ok. That hepled me a lot. Thank you very much grekbell and borisrorsvort for your response :)

[borisrorsvort]

didn't do much ^^ Though, it would actually be nice to extend the documentation for these kind of thing.
@gregbell is it possible to make a tutorials wiki page on github (cf Devise) with shared customization tutorials ?

[gregbell]

Definitely working on the documentation right now. The wiki is a great place for this type of adhoc tutorial. Feel free to add pages to the wiki or fork the project and add docs to the README.

The all in one README docs worked for a while, but I think the documentation needs are getting to be a little more. So I'm definitely looking for suggestions moving forward. My current thinking is that the wiki is the place for it. The hope is that the wiki can be used for master on github and then the current version would live on activeadmin.info.

Thoughts?

[borisrorsvort]

@gregbell nice :) so i think you need to allow users to create new pages then , because right now its not possible.

[gregbell]

Oh sorry about that. I just updated the settings.

[borisrorsvort]

Don't know why, but we still can't edit the wiki homepage.

[gregbell]

I don't think there is a homepage yet. It's just an index listing of pages that have been created. You should be able to create a new page and it'll just show up

[borisrorsvort]

how did devise did then ?

FYI, I linked the entry to the main Wiki page now.

Also, please note that while you can use @per_page in a filter, the "page_entries_info" helper will still display "entry 1-30 of 50" in the index header, i.e. it will still use the global default.
