So is this extension still on the to do list for joomla 1.7? I figure that K2 2.5.1 is coming out first in a few days so it would be nice to have this extension once again.

Here is a "rigged" version that works on some sites (not mine):
happyhippie.co.nz/UberPageBreak.zip

It seems to have much of the code converted to work with joomla 1.7, but seems incomplete.
Sorry if I sound impatient, but this is a very important extension. B)

:huh: Is this extension still on the to do list?

I am also eagerly waiting for K2 to either work with the Joomla 1.7 pagebreak plugin or for an update to UberPageBreak to allow the same functionality (we have the "slides" presentation mode built into our template).

Since we're a commercial site I am willing to pay to get this done quicker for ourselves and the community. What do you say JoomlaWorks???

Cheers,
Case

Same here - I would be willing to pitch in some $$ as well. I am running 1.7 and desperately need a working pagebreak in K2

I have "kinda good" news.

I decided to try my luck tinkering with it and finally just got it "99%" working for Joomla 1.7. Knowing how painful it is to not have UberPageBreak after porting my site to J1.7, I would like to share this solution.

Note 1: I'm not an expert, so please backup your site before attempting this. I also recommend trying this out first on a fresh install of J1.7, K2, JCE sandbox site.

Note 2: I used JCE "insert page break" button to insert my pagebreak.

Steps:

1 - Download Zip file from top post: Rigged version of UberPageBreak (Thank you very much Joshua).

2 - Open the Rigged Version Zip File and unzip the folder, UberPageBreak, on to your desktop.

3 - Open UberPageBreak.php

4 - Change line 27 to function onContentPrepare($content, &$row, &$params, $page=0 ) {

5 - Comment out line 72, $row->text = $row->introtext; (There's got to be a better way but If I don't do this, my {loadposition xyz} modules won't render in the article)

6 - Rezip the "UberPageBreak" folder and name it "UberPageBreak 1.7" (This zip file should have the UberPageBreak folder inside now)

7 - Install zip file onto site

8 - Go to plugin manager

9 - Turn OFF "Content - Pagebreak" plugin

10 - Turn ON "UberpageBreak" plugin

11 - Enter Uberpagebreak plugin in plugin manager and here, you can change the settings.
Notice that while the presentation styles isn't a dropdown like in 1.5 (due to 1.6/1.7 plugins requiring JForms), however, you can actually type in "List" or "Tabs" to select the style.

12 - Go to k2 item and create your pagebreak (Used JCE)

I think that's all to it. Good luck and let's hope an official UberPageBreak for J1.7 comes out soon.

I am Brazilian. I do not speak English. I'll wait: official UberPageBreak is J1.7. This already exists?

Hi,

I followed the guide posted above, and I thank you, but I have a problem and I do not know how to solve it, I have a display problem with the page numbers as you can see by the screen attached.

Thank you,
Massimo

I built on the work of riotmos and Joshua. The UberPageBreak now works in my installation of Joomla 2.5, with proper formatting and the ability to choose Tabs/List/Pagination in the plugin admin.

No warranty. Works fine for me.

Thank you for sharing! :)

It works fine, but I have a problem: Intro text appears on every page of text.

Thank you it works, but I have the same problem: Intro text is appearing on each page?

How can I fix it?

I don't use the "readmore" to define intro text. I display the introductory text using a different method so I was not aware of this.

You can go to line 255 of UberPageBreak.php which is now like this:

$row->text = $row->introtext.'{K2Splitter}'.$getTemplate;

comment it out, and add a new row underneath so it now looks like this:

//$row->text = $row->introtext.'{K2Splitter}'.$getTemplate;
$row->text = $row->{K2Splitter}.$getTemplate;

That should do it...

or just download and re-install

Mike,

Thank you so much. It works now.

May I ask you another question. How can I show table of content in the popup window? Is there any way to do it?

Well, anything is possible with enough time and desire. I just modified the Pagebreak so that I could use it on my site. You might have a go at it though and then post your results if you get it going...

Mike,

I managed to make it work by using extra field and ARI sexy lightbox plugin. First I had to change a little bit K2 core files to allow html in extra field then I just inserted lightbox code in the extra field and all works great now. But now, I have problem with inserting a large text in the extra field. Whenever text exceeds curtain length, K2 strips it.

What controls how much text you can insert in extra field in K2? Do you know?

Excellent work... BTW at the end of the URL it repeat the article id and name...

Thanks, Mike! I spread many time for the find decision. All worked! Best regards!

Any update on this K2 team, are you going to realease pagebreaks in K2 officially? Whit all the tools and bug fixes? Regards

For some reason, the link to the newer file no longer appears. You can download the correct Uberpagebreak at

Hi Mike. If I can get your version of Uber Pagebreak working it will be a godsend. I have installed it and when you visit an article where I have implemented it you do see the list and the page titles...see sample below. But...big but...all of the links are the same...all links point to Page1.html and not to the proper sections. Any help on this?

totalhealthmagazine.com/special-reports/antioxidant-digest.html

I have played with the .css formatting to display the table of contents across the top of the article.

Here's the code I added to my k2-override.css file

div#pageBreakTOC ul li {
background:none;
list-style: none;
}

div#pageBreakTOC {
float:left;
background:none;
list-style: none;
width:485px;
}

I have tried the newest version of the altered uberpagebreak in this thread and the problem I am getting is that the Table of Contents isn't appearing on the first page of the article.

Other than that, it is working great!

Any ideas?

Thanks so much. Trying for so long to get this to work! This is the closest I have been!
