[wp-hackers] Taxonomy - Custom Post Type - Pagination?

[Joaquin Rodriguez Montero]

You rock Philip. Thanks a lot for your answer!

Still.. it's odd how this works on taxonomies but not on other *regular*
pages.. for instance this works perfectly on page-products.php

$page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts("post_type=products&paged=$page&posts_per_page=16&orderby=title&order=ASC");
$i = 1; while (have_posts()) : the_post();

Any idea why this is?

Well the reason is the posts_per_page when set in the query line doesn't
actually work unless you send it to the pre_get_posts first, the reason is
that the calculation for pagination happens *way* before the query is done,
dunno why, just does.

 add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'comicpress_blogpostcount_
filter');

 function comicpress_blogpostcount_filter($query) {
  if (is_home()) {
   $query->set('posts_per_page', 16);
  }
  return $query;
 }

So basically you need to set it at the pre_get_posts stage ahead of time so
that it can calculate the posts_per_page properly
