better template for pagination (nextprevious and collection pagination)

[iham]

What I did:

while theming less/css/pt i wanted to hide the labels (eg 'next item') and change the arrows. also the "next items" arrow is way smaller then the "previous".

What I expect to happen:

that it will be easy by using only some less. (hide labels & :before content to change the icon)

What actually happened:

i had to override 2 templates and the less code... ... which is more work then i thougt.

What version of Plone/ Addons I am using:

plone 5.1

SOLUTION

i want to change the templates a little to achieve:

• add the arrows using css :before and content: 'unicode'
• change the arrows to &lt/&gt as they are rendered correctly (the double arrows are actually quotes.)
• change the less to keep the layout as is.

... because this looks pretty nice too ...

... and is customisable using css only ;)

this was improved a lot in Plone 6 ClassicUI and is even better in Volto.
