Using Low Alphabet for A-Z pagination?

jonathanmorgan 12 Mar 2012 10:13 question, complete

Hi there,

I'm trying to achieve something similar to:
http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Dl1/Direc...

Where you can navigate content using an A-Z pagination-style list.

In my case it's to allow users to navigate a list of football clubs, so that if they click W they'd see all the clubs that start with W, J all the clubs starting with J, etc.

Is this possible to achieve using Low Alphabet?

Thanks!
J

   There was an additional detail: I'm also applying a filter so that the most recent 6 entries have 'New!' alongside. The code looks like this:
   
   

   
   {exp:channel:entries channel="clubs" dynamic="off" orderby="title" sort="asc" limit="20"}
   
   • 
     {title} {if embed:entry_id_1 == entry_id OR embed:entry_id_2 == entry_id OR embed:entry_id_3 == entry_id OR embed:entry_id_4 == entry_id OR embed:entry_id_5 == entry_id OR embed:entry_id_6 == entry_id}NEW!{/if}
     
   
   {/exp:channel:entries}
   
   
   
   Would Low Alphabet and this code work ok together?
   
   Thanks!

   Hi Jonathan,
   
   Yes, that's exactly what Low Alphabet is meant to do. The if-statments should also not be a problem.
