[Resolved] AJAX Pagination loading too much; another link for button

Hi Stephan,

On my front page, I have two shortcodes for two lists. The first one shows WooCoomerce products (all), the second one WooCommerce products of a specific category. When I now click the “Show more” button, the first shortcode loads more entries, but also the second although the chosen category does not have so many products in it – just some random products get loaded. Is the idea not to use two shortcodes on the same page with pagination? I already stopped all other plugins to see if there are some problems, but it seems to change the behavior.

Multiple queries on a same page goes haywire when either of the list has pagination with offset OR AJAX pagination(show more). It’s quite tricky to fix and it’s one of the major things the dev team is trying to fix on the next version. There’s no fix for this at the moment, unfortunately.

Then I would like to make the “load more” button a bit bigger, like the whole width of the posts and translate it. Is that possible?

This can be done with CSS:

.wpsp-load-more a {
    width: 100%;
}

Here’s the PHP snippet for the translation:

And most importantly, I would like to pass on the affiliate link of a WooCoomerce product into the “read more” button link of a content box, so a click sends you directly to the external website, whereas picture and headline to the WooCommerce product on the site (working already perfectly).

You can change the link of he read more button through wpsp_read_more_output filter.

add_filter( 'wpsp_read_more_output', function( $output, $settings ) {

if( 1234 === (int) $settings["list_id"]){
    return sprintf(
        '<div class="wpsp-read-more"><a title="%1$s" class="%4$s" href="%2$s">%3$s</a></div>',
        the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ),
        esc_url( get_permalink() ),
        __( 'Read more', 'wp-show-posts' ),
        esc_attr( $settings['read_more_class'] )
    );
}

return $output;
}, 10, 2 );

Change 1234 to the list ID of the WPSP w/ the WooCommerce listing.

For the translation, try this:

add_filter( 'wpsp_ajax_load_more', function($output){ 
	$output = __(  'Показать еще', 'wp-show-posts-pro' ); 
	return $output; 
});

add_filter( 'wpsp_ajax_loading', function($output){ 
	$output = __(  'Загрузка...', 'wp-show-posts-pro' ); 
	return $output; 
});

The code for the affiliate link I insert with the Snippets plugin. But as soon as I activate it, I get a critical error. Do you have any idea what could be wrong?

Not sure what you mean. can you share the code you’ve added?

I’ve tested the same code on my site and it works fine. Can you share the error you’re getting?

Can you link us to it?

You can send it through our contact page if you wish to keep it private. – https://wpshowposts.com/contact/

Do you need some more information? I sent you the link via email (the second one).

I’ve checked through the system and it didn’t seem to receive the second email. (Last email received was December 7th linking to “doobeedoo” but there’s no login link)

While waiting:

The code I provided for WooCommerce link is an example. It’s not the direct solution.

I’m not exactly sure what you meant by “the product link of the WooCommerce link” as I’m not sure what you meant by “WooCommerce Link”. (The read more link already links to the single product page.)

That’s why I gave the filter code so atleast you can play around with the line esc_url( get_permalink() ) and change it to where you want to point it.

I still don’t see the email on the system.

Can you make sure the email being used is correct? Or perhaps try sending a new email thread? https://wpshowposts.com/contact/

Note: If you know what the affiliate link is, you can make the change on the code yourself so we can skip the back and forth w/ the email. 😀

Thanks, I’m able to access the site now.

Can you share what affiliate link should be added? So I can modify the code to add it for you. 😀
