    viewing homepage pagination links for styling purposes

    I wanted to style the homepage pagination links on a site that only has 2 ads (i.e. not enough to cause the pagination links to appear naturally).

    So I modified some code inside ClassiPress to cause the pagination link to appear in all scenarios (even if there aren't enough ads to populate a second page). This way, I could style the link without creating a bunch of test ads.

    Here is how I did it:

    WARNING: This will break pagination! I recommend you remove this mod when you're done styling the pagination links.

    1. In tpl-ads-home.php, change lines 71-75 from this:

    PHP Code:
                            <?php
                                    if ( $total_pages > 1 ) {
                                ?>
                                    <div class="paging"><a href="<?php echo $post_type_url; ?>"> <?php _e( 'View More Ads', APP_TD ); ?> </a></div>
                            <?php } ?>
    To this (added "|| true" to the condition):

    PHP Code:
                            <?php
                                    if ( $total_pages > 1 || true ) {
                                ?>
                                    <div class="paging"><a href="<?php echo $post_type_url; ?>"> <?php _e( 'View More Ads', APP_TD ); ?> </a></div>
                            <?php } ?>
    2. In the same file, change lines 91-95 from this:

    PHP Code:
                                if ( $cp_has_next_page ) {
                                    $popular_url = add_query_arg( array( 'sort' => 'popular' ), $post_type_url );
                            ?>
                                    <div class="paging"><a href="<?php echo $popular_url; ?>"> <?php _e( 'View More Ads', APP_TD ); ?> </a></div>
                            <?php } ?>
    To this (added "|| true" to the condition):

    PHP Code:
                                if ( $cp_has_next_page || true ) {
                                    $popular_url = add_query_arg( array( 'sort' => 'popular' ), $post_type_url );
                            ?>
                                     <div class="paging"><a  href="<?php echo $popular_url; ?>"> <?php _e( 'View More  Ads', APP_TD ); ?> </a></div>
                            <?php } ?>
    3. In the same file, change lines 118-123 from this:

    PHP Code:
                            <?php
                                    if ( $total_pages > 1 ) {
                                        $random_url = add_query_arg( array( 'sort' => 'random' ), $post_type_url );
                                ?>
                                    <div class="paging"><a href="<?php echo $random_url; ?>"> <?php _e( 'View More Ads', APP_TD ); ?> </a></div>
                            <?php } ?>
    To this (added "|| true" to the condition):

    PHP Code:
                            <?php
                                    if ( $total_pages > 1 || true) {
                                        $random_url = add_query_arg( array( 'sort' => 'random' ), $post_type_url );
                                ?>
                                    <div class="paging"><a href="<?php echo $random_url; ?>"> <?php _e( 'View More Ads', APP_TD ); ?> </a></div>
                            <?php } ?>
    Done.

    Now your homepage will show the pagination link below the list of ads, and you can style it without creating a bunch of test ads.

    REMINDER: This will break pagination! I recommend you remove this mod when you're done styling the pagination links.
