Pagination Missing in Magento 2 Catalog

catalogmagento2pagination

I am working with Magento2. Category pages seem to be not calling the Pagination at all.

I can see in toolbar.phtml

<?php echo $block->getPagerHtml() ?>

it is there correctly but doesn't show on the category page, and can't find the call needed for the XML in case this is the issue

To note, the category page has over 15 products and the Pagination doesn't display in the source

You should add this method to your class if you haven't added yet. If you don't see it yet, you should debug this method. Don't forget to add your own _getProductCollection method with your collection, and setCollection() nethod.

/**
 * Retrieve Toolbar block
 *
 * @return \Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\ProductList\Toolbar
 */
public function getToolbarBlock()
{
    $blockName = $this->getToolbarBlockName();
    if ($blockName) {
        $block = $this->getLayout()->getBlock($blockName);
        if ($block) {
            return $block;
        }
    }
    $block = $this->getLayout()->createBlock($this->_defaultToolbarBlock, uniqid(microtime()));
    return $block;
}

How to Include Recently Viewed Product Block on Product Page Right Column

Make sure your product view page actually has a right column by setting the template of that page to either 3columns or 2columns-right from your local.xml and then add the block from there too to make sure it's not overwritten by any other XML file.

[...]
<catalog_product_view>
   <reference name="root">
      <action method="setTemplate"><template>page/3columns.phtml</template></action>
   </reference>
   <reference name="right">
      <block type="reports/product_viewed" before="right.permanent.callout" name="right.reports.product.viewed" template="reports/product_viewed.phtml" />
   </reference>
</catalog_product_view>

Magento – Add Custom Collection Pagination to Existing Category Page

This is how you can set custom toolbar and pager for your custom collection, below is an example shared, I am using this snippet currently.

Set Toolbar and Pager inside your phtml (your file that is to be called inside static block):

/*  Set Toolbar Pagination for Custom Loaded Collection */                              
$toolbar = Mage::getBlockSingleton('catalog/product_list')->getToolbarBlock();
$toolbar->setCollection($_productCollection);

/*  Set Pager   */
$pager = $this->getLayout()->createBlock('page/html_pager', 'custom.pager');
$pager->setAvailableLimit(array($itemsLimit=>$itemsLimit));
$pager->setCollection($_productCollection);
$toolbar->addPagerLimit('grid', 50, 50);
$toolbar->addPagerLimit('grid', 75, 75);
$toolbar->addPagerLimit('grid', 100, 100);
$toolbar->setChild('product_list_toolbar_pager', $pager);
$toolbar->setData('_current_limit', $itemsLimit);

//Set order, define $sortBy and $orderBy
$toolbar->setData('_current_grid_order', $sortBy);
$toolbar->setData('_current_grid_direction', $orderBy);

To display toolbar on top of list, use :

<?php echo $toolbar->toHtml(); ?>

And to display pager on bottom, use :

   <!-- Show Bottom Pagination Toolbar -- PAGER -->
    <div class="toolbar-bottom">
          <div class="toolbar">
            <?php echo $pager->toHtml();?>
          </div>
    </div>

Now you can call static block on a category page
Then you can define your file path inside that static block
Call your custom collection inside that file and use steps above
And That's it :) Enjoy
