I'm using django-endless-pagination to load my objects on display. It works fine, but I want to load some pages on scrolling, then after these pages, I want to have a 'show more' which when clicked loads the next set of pages (again as we scroll)
If I use
<script>$.endlessPaginate();</script>
and
{% lazy_paginate 100 entries %}
I was hoping that these entries would load lazily, but they are not, they just load all 100 at a time. Also, i cant use something like
<script>
$.endlessPaginate({
paginateOnScroll: true,
paginateOnScrollMargin: 20
}); </script>
as this would load all the pages on scrolling, and not a set of pages.
This is what I want to do : http://www.flipkart.com/mens-clothing/trousers/pr?sid=2oq%2Cs9b%2C9uj&otracker=hp_submenu_clothing_Trousers&_pop=flyout
Here, each page gets loaded as we scroll, and after 20 pages, there is a 'show more pages', which loads page 21 and other pages on scrolling, and so on.
Any help on this would be great! Thanks.
First, if you use {% lazy_paginate 100 entries %} the behavior you get is correct: you are asking for 100 entries on each page.
Read the documentation here: http://django-endless-pagination.readthedocs.org/en/latest/templatetags_reference.html#paginate
As for the second part: yes, you can display a "show more" link after a certain number of pages:
http://django-endless-pagination.readthedocs.org/en/latest/javascript.html#on-scroll-pagination-using-chunks
Moreover, you might want to write the js call with
$(document).ready(function() {
$.endlessPaginate();
});

I've 2 section in my screen. Left section is for showing tabs and right is for displaying that tab template(as shown in screenshot). I'm not able to understand how to load different templates when I click these tabs
For example, when I click change password, I should be able to load change_password.html template
This is by far I've tried with code.
<div class="nav">
<ul>
<li class="active"></i><span class="hidden-xs hidden-sm">Home</span></li>
<li></i><span class="hidden-xs hidden-sm">Change Password</span></li>
<li>Bookings</span></li>
<li></i><span class="hidden-xs hidden-sm">Settings</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
I've tried to use with but no luck.
I've just started with django, so if anything is missed let me know. Thanks for your help!

I think what you're attempting is not possible. If you don't want a page reload upon clicking on a tab, you need to use Javascript to dynamically show/hide elements. If page reload is acceptable, you can create different views for each tab, each view rendering a different html file.
You can use the Django include tag to render another template with the current context. E.g. {% include "foo/bar.html" %} (see documentation here). But this will not solve your problem of displaying different content upon clicking on a tab.
I posed a question and got a quick response (thanks, Bob!) on how to do pagination in Django:
Change value for paginate_by on the fly
However, as outlined below, I'm having an issue getting the items per page to remain set.
I modified my ProdListView.html template to show buttons with page numbers, but, while it works, I'm getting an odd behavior. I have a for loop that I use to put out the page numbers as buttons:
{% for i in DataPaginated.paginator.page_range %}
{% if DataPaginated.number == i %}
<button class="w3-button w3-amber">{{ i }} </button>
{% else %}
{{ i }}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
If the pagination is set to the default of ten this works properly and shows three pages (there are 24 items). If I change the pagination to 20, it looks correct at first and shows two pages. However, if I click on the second page, it changes my pagination back to 10, shows three pages again, and places me on the 2nd of the three pages.
In the interest of space, you can find the code I'm using in the views.py file and template file, besides the fragment above, in Bob White's answer here:
Change value for paginate_by on the fly
I would like whichever items per page is picked in the form to stay set while the user pages through the output until/unless they choose to change the items per page again. Is there something I can do to keep my pagination (items per page) locked at the setting chosen with the form?
Thanks--

Looking at the code in the views, you have a line: paginate_by = request.GET.get('paginate_by', 10) or 10, but I don't see in your template that you're sending paginate_by query param?
This will basically reset your pagination to 10 if you don't explicitly provide it.
I have a simple website that is running on a raspberry Pi chriminium in kiosk mode.
The page has two parts;
Page-1.php and Page2.php
Each page has a redirect to the other with a meta tag refresh so it rotates.
I want to remove the white flash that shows between page loads because it really ruins the look of the page.
Can someone suggest a way? I tried adding
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=10.0)">
to the headers but the white flash is still there.
Thanks in advance.
Got it figured out with Jquery:
function toggle_contents() {
$('#page1').toggle("slow", "linear");
$('#page2').toggle("slow", "linear");
setTimeout(function(){toggle_contents()}, 3000)
}
toggle_contents();
<div id="container">
<div id="page1">This is page 1 contents.</div>
<div id="page2" style="display:none;">This is page 2 contents.</div>
</div>

I am trying to solve an issue with modals. What I want to do is allow the user to click the browser's back button to dismiss a modal and return to the original state of the page, this is: without modal. For such purpose I thought about using HTML 5 history API.
I started trying to append a querystring parameter to the URL, such as http://...page.html?show_modal=[yes|no] but I ended leaving this approach because I couldn't handle all the stuff involving popstate event, pageshow event, etc. I couldn't make it work and it overwhelmed me.
Then I tried with a more simple approach involving a hash appended to the URL, such as http://...page.html#modal, and the hashchange event. This approach is working better for me and I almost have it.
When the user clicks the button to show the modal, he or she can click the browser's back button and it will dismiss the modal. Furthermore, after that, the user can click the browser's forward button and it will show the modal again. Very nice! The user can also navigate directly to the URL with the hash to access directly this state of the page, as well as he or she can bookmark such state of the page. It's working pretty neat and I'm rather happy with the results.
The problem is that it is not working totally perfect. When the user dismiss the modal by clicking the background, the ESC key or the X in the upper right corner, the history starts to mess up. Try it: open the modal by clicking on the button, then click the background to dismiss it (look a the URL in the address bar, first problem here is that the hash isn't removed), then click your browser back button and you will see it isn't working correctly. You will end with a duplicate in your history and you have to click the back button twice in order to go to the previous page. This is not desirable from an UX viewpoint. Does anyone know a solution to this?
I provide my code in this CodePen and at the end of this question. I suggest trying it in your own machine and NOT IN Codepen, so you can view the hash in the URL, etc. Also, it doesn't work in Codepen Full mode, I don't know why.
Thanks!!

newHash = "#modal";
}
// Build the resulting URL
result = a.protocol + "//" + a.hostname + ":" + a.port + a.pathname + a.search + newHash;
return result;
}
$("#button").on('click', function() {
history.pushState(null, null, setModalHash(document.URL, true));
});
$(window).on("hashchange load",function(e) {
// Handling also the load event allows navigation directly to http://host/path/to/file#modal and bookmarking it
if (document.location.hash == "#modal") {
$("#sampleModal").foundation("reveal","open");
}
else {
$("#sampleModal").foundation("reveal","close");

});
I've been messing with the history api/History.js in combination with session storage to maintain modal state, and open/close based upon user navigation. I've finally achieved about 90% of my goal, but history is implemented very poorly in Safari and iOS Safari so remove the features for these browsers.
Some of the problems you may be running into with the hash approach is that when you use the # with pushstate it actually doesn't push a new object into the history state. It sometimes seems to push history onto the stack and you could use history.back() to fire a popstate, but if you were to say refresh the page with your hashurl and do some sort of check for hash on page initiation, there doesn't seem to be a new history pushed onto the stack, and therefore on backwards navigation the user will leave the site rather than closing the modal.
Here is my implementation working for all browsers except for where it falls back to normal behavior is Safari:
http://dtothefp.github.io/hosted_modal_history_sample/
https://github.com/dtothefp/html5history_express_modal_toggle
Like I said I use History.js in combination with sessionstorage because annoyingly enough, in the popstate for closing the modal the history object is removed, which is exactly when I would need it. In all a very poorly implemented API.
I don't change the URL because this project does not have a backend, so if I change the URL with no hash, on page refresh the page would not be found. An alternate implementation would be a query string, which will properly update history when used in the pushstate, but ends up being bad UX because if the user closes the modal not using the backwards navigation (i.e. hitting the cancel button or clicking off), removing the query string would result in a page refresh.
I have a web page where the user enters some data and then clicks a submit button. I process the data and then use the same Django template to display the original data, the submit button, and the results. When I am using the Django template to display results, I would like the page to be automatically scrolled down to the part of the page where the results begin. This allows the user to scroll back up the page if she wants to change her original data and click submit again. Hopefully, there's some simple way of doing this that I can't see at the moment.
It should already work if you provide a fragment identifier in the action method of the form:
<form method="post" action="/your/url#results">
<!-- ... -->
</form>
and somewhere below the form, where you want to show the results:
<div id="results">
<!-- your results here -->
</div>
This should make the page jump to the <div> with ID results.
It is complete client site and does not involve Django, JavaScript or similar.
You need to wrap your data into something like this:
<div id="some-id">YOUR DATA TO BE DISPLAYED</div>
and if you make redirect in your view you need to redirect to url: /some-url/#some-id
if you don't make redirect you need to scroll to the bottom using javascript (but note that redirect is preffered way to use in view after saving data).
