>>> [!note] Migrated issue <!-- Drupal.org comment --> <!-- Migrated from issue #2205181. --> Reported by: [nicorac](https://www.drupal.org/user/235024) >>> <p>Goto Last Page defaults to the last page of comments (instead of the first one) for configurable node types.</p> <!--break--><h2>Summary</h2> <p>Suppose you have a node with a lot of comments, threaded and sorted older --&gt; newer.<br> Default behavior will show the first page of comments (which could be 1 or 2 years old...) and user needs to click again to show the last page; node is then shown at least twice (the first is useless).<br> <a href="https://drupal.org/sandbox/nicorac/2205137">Goto Last Page</a> changes this default behavior by showing the last page of comments (instead of the first one) for configurable node types.<br> It also allows adding a custom fragment (<em>like #comments</em>) to pager links, so the user will go straight to comments section while paging through comments.</p> <h2>Description</h2> <p>If "page" query parameter is not set, Drupal defaults to the first page of a pager; but this is not always the best choice.</p> <p>Example<br> -------<br> Node: <strong><a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a></strong><br> Node comments: 500<br> Comments / page: 25<br> Comments sorting: Threaded list - Expanded / Date - Oldest first</p> <p>When a visitor opens <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a> , Drupal will return the node together with the first page of comments (1 to 25).<br> But these comments are the oldest, so the user must click again on the comments pager to see the more recent ones... and this could require more than one click.</p> <p>Goto Last Page changes this behavior (on configurable node types) by returning the last page by default.</p> <h2>What changes?</h2> <p>Let's see how rendered pager links will be changed by Goto Last Page module when an user request the same URI as above.</p> <h4>Without Goto Last Page module</h4> <p>URL: <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a><br> Returned comments page: first<br> First page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a><br> Prev. page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a><br> Page 2: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=1">http://example.org/mynode?page=1</a><br> Page 3: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=2">http://example.org/mynode?page=2</a><br> Next page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=1">http://example.org/mynode?page=1</a><br> Last page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=19">http://example.org/mynode?page=19</a></p> <h4>With Goto Last Page module</h4> <p>URL: <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a><br> Returned comments page: last<br> First page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=0">http://example.org/mynode?page=0</a><br> Prev. page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=18">http://example.org/mynode?page=18</a><br> Page 2: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=1">http://example.org/mynode?page=1</a><br> Page 3: <a href="http://example.org/mynode?page=2">http://example.org/mynode?page=2</a><br> Next page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a><br> Last page: <a href="http://example.org/mynode">http://example.org/mynode</a></p> <p>As you can see now the default page is the last; to see the first one, <strong>page=0</strong> query parameter must be added to the URI.</p> <h2>Installation</h2> <p>Install as usual, see <a href="https://drupal.org/node/895232">https://drupal.org/node/895232</a> for further information.</p> <h2>Configuration</h2> <p>By default the module is active on all node types.<br> Open configuration page (admin/config/system/gotolastpage) to change it.</p> <h2>Links</h2> <p>Drupal version: 7.x<br> Project page: <a href="https://drupal.org/sandbox/nicorac/2205137">https://drupal.org/sandbox/nicorac/2205137</a></p> <h2>Git</h2> <p><code>git clone --branch 7.x-1.x http://git.drupal.org/sandbox/nicorac/2205137.git gotolastpage</code></p> <h2>Reviews of other projects</h2> <p><a href="https://drupal.org/comment/8650793#comment-8650793">[D7] More dates</a><br> <a href="https://drupal.org/comment/8651251#comment-8651251">[D7] Drupal Front End Developer</a><br> <a href="https://drupal.org/comment/8651321#comment-8651321">[D7] Varnish All</a><br> <a href="https://drupal.org/comment/8655177#comment-8655177">[D7] Disable JS</a><br> <a href="https://drupal.org/comment/8655227#comment-8655227">[D7] Converse.js Integration</a><br> <a href="https://drupal.org/comment/8655323#comment-8655323">[D7] Real Time Poll</a></p>
