Add support for removal of "next" and "back" buttons on the bottom of each page. about retype

[geoffreymcgill]

This feature is still on our radar and will likely be implemented in Retype v3.1.

[geoffreymcgill]

Thanks for the feature request. I agree, Retype should have the ability to configure this functionality in the page metadata. At the project level too would be nice, for instance, disable site wide.

This should be easy for us to add. We will try to get it into the next release v1.7.0.

Just need to figure out what those property names should be called.

[geoffreymcgill]

We will be implementing configs to control the hide, show, and exclude of the nextprev buttons, but we need to bump to the v1.8.0 release.

[geoffreymcgill]

This functionality did not make it into v1.8.0. It's still a very high priority feature for us to implement, but we need to wrap this up into a larger refactoring of the templates functionality.

Hi. Just wondering if this feature is still considered or it was dropped, I don't see it mentioned in your docs yet. I could use it. Thanks

[geoffreymcgill]

@matkuliak It should be easy for us to do, but we just got pulled in a different direction with higher priority tasks. I don't think we ever settled on what the configuration names should be. That is probably the hardest part of this feature, just naming the config(s).

Reading above, looks like we were thinking about:

nextprev: hide|show|exclude

The nextprev config would be available as both a Page and Project level configuration.

Just for curiosity's sake, what would the difference between hide and exclude be?

[geoffreymcgill]

Default value for nextprev would be show.

Config	Description
show	Show the Previous / Next buttons on this page.
hide	Hide the Previous / Next buttons on this page, but keep the page in the same sequential order. The Next button on the previous page would still link to this page. The Previous button on the next page would still link to this page.
exclude	Hide the Previous / Next on this page and exclude this page from the sequential ordering of pages in the previous and next pages. The Next button on the previous page would not link to this page. The Previous button on the next page would not link to this page.

Hope this makes sense.
