    Hello,

    I want to edit the ascx file for the pagingcontrol because it appears like this:

    Notice the "Page 1 of 4" and the "First..." sticks together, and it is really annoying to look at. But when i tried to look for the pagingcontrol file to try to edit it, I cannot find it anywhere.

    How can i edit the pagingcontrol file?

    Thanks.

        This occurs in one of my modules that is using this line of code:

        <dnn:pagingcontrol id=ctlPagingControl runat="server">dnn:pagingcontrol>

         

        in the source code, but I do not know where I can find this dnn:pagingcontrol and edit it.

          It's a web control, not a web user control. Therefore it can be found in the file DotNetNuke.dll. Find the source code here.

          To change it:

          1. Create an issue
          2. Wait until someone feels responsive for the change and leave it. Or:
          3. If you don't want to wait: Fork the platform, correct the code and start a pull request.

          Happy DNNing!

            You will also find it in the DNN Documentation at https://dnndocs.com/api/D...s.PagingControl.html

            Take a look at the HTML that the code produces on your page. You should find some CSS classes that you can use to adjust the appearance of the pager. That will be a lot simpler than rewriting the code.

            If you Google "dnn paging control" you will find a lot of references. The one by MaxiomTech is a good start. I also saw a reference to DotNetNuke 5.4 Cookbook with an example that goes into a lot of detail on using the control.
