I am trying to paginate taxonomy cities, with custom post type city, the categories that are displayed but failed to understand how can do it with the wp_custom_pagination function.

function wp_custom_pagination($before = '', $after = '') {
        global $wpdb, $wp_query,$wp_rewrite;
        $wp_rewrite->flush_rules();
        $custom_pagination = array();
        $custom_pagination['pages_text'] = ('');
        $custom_pagination['current_text'] = '%PAGE_NUMBER%';
        $custom_pagination['page_text'] = '%PAGE_NUMBER%';
        $custom_pagination['first_text'] = ('First Page');
        $custom_pagination['last_text'] = ('Last Page');
        $custom_pagination['next_text'] = 'Next';
        $custom_pagination['prev_text'] = 'Prev';
        $custom_pagination['dotright_text'] = '...';
        $custom_pagination['dotleft_text'] = '...';
        $custom_pagination['num_pages'] = 3; //continuous block of page numbers
        $custom_pagination['always_show'] = 0;
        $custom_pagination['num_larger_page_numbers'] = 0;
        $custom_pagination['larger_page_numbers_multiple'] = 1;

        //If NOT a single Post is being displayed
        /*http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_single)*/
        if (!is_single()) {
                $request = $wp_query->request;

                }
        }
}

I have tried with a for but did not managed to went ahead. Please help, I am a noob in wordpress. I researched about 10 stackoverflow posts, but did not managed to get it working.

This is what I have:

<?php
 global $wpdb;
 $category_ids = get_categories('taxonomy=cities&orderby=order&hide_empty=0');
 foreach($category_ids as $cat) { 
   $term_include = $wpdb->get_var($wpdb->prepare("SELECT term_include FROM $wpdb->terms WHERE term_id = %d ", $cat->term_id ));
   $link = get_term_link( $cat->slug, 'cities' );
   $image = z_taxonomy_image_url($cat->term_id, 'large');
   $category_heading = $cat->name;
   $excerpt = smart_excerpt(category_description($cat->term_id), 20);
   $category_post = the_category(' / ');
 }
 wp_custom_pagination();
?>

    I don't understand you very well. Are you trying to paginate a list of terms?. If so, check this. It work on exactly the same principle Aug 30, 2014 at 9:36
  • @PieterGoosen I am trying to paginate a list of categories from a custom taxonomy, but I am trying with wp_custom_pagination. Ok, will try that.

  • wp_custom_pagination is not a native function. Where did you get this function from Aug 30, 2014 at 9:41
  • Found it somewhere, but don't remember where

    The function you are trying to use for pagination uses the global variables from main wp query. It won't work for secondary queries like your list of categories. You have to investigate other method or function like the one linked by @PieterGoosen
