Answer 1

Had the same problem but realized that newer versions of CI have a suffix defined within the pagination class. Though it's still not in the documentation. No need to hack it.

Answer 2

I got the same problem. My solution is to modify Pagination and put it in application/libraries. First i create

var $get='';

and find all "a" elements and add $get in the href="........'.$this->get.'"'>.......</a>

Now in the controller or model input these line

$config['get']=(isset($_GET['search']))?'?search='.$_GET['search']:'';

That's it! i hope it will help you.

Before line:

$this->base_url = rtrim($this->base_url).'&'.$this->query_string_segment.'=';

Replace this code below:

if(isset($_GET[$this->query_string_segment]))
{    
    unset($_GET[$this->query_string_segment]); 
}
$uri = http_build_query($_GET);
$uri = empty($uri) ? '?' : $uri . '&';
$this->base_url = rtrim($this->base_url).$uri.$this->query_string_segment.'=';

I struggled with the same issue today. My solution is this:

1. Generate the pagination links and store them in a string ( $pagination = $this->pagination->create_links(); )

2. Use regexp to find all links and add query strings

The regular expression code used is:

<?php
$query = '?myvar=myvalue';
$regexp = "<a\s[^>]*href=(\"??)([^\" >]*?)\\1[^>]*>(.*)<\/a>";
$unique = array();
if( preg_match_all("/$regexp/siU", $pagination, $matches) )
{
    foreach ( $matches[2] as $link )
    {
        if ( !isset($unique[$link]) )
        {
            $data['pagination'] = str_replace($link . '"', $link . $query . '"', $data['pagination']);
            $unique[$link] = '';
        }
    }
}
unset($unique);

Works like a charm for me! What it does is:

1. Find all links
2. Replace unique links (since there is a previous/next links same link may appear more than once) with the original link and the query-string.

Then just assign the variable to the template that will be shown and use print $your_pagination_variable_name; to show the links with your query-strings attached!

Answer 5

I have encountered with similar kind of problem, and based on the above answer here is what I have to do for customization according to my needs.

My URI was to be something like this:

base_url() . /search/?term=

So, here is what I have done:

$config['base_url'] = base_url ."/search/?term=" . $_GET['term']

Answer 6

Just see this link.
Just update the modified pagination class and then add

$config['get'] = "?string=" . $_REQUEST['string']."&searchBy=" . $_REQUEST['searchBy'];
