In AnQi CMS, adding links and titles for "Previous Article" and "Next Article" on the document detail page is a very practical feature to enhance user experience and content consistency.This not only encourages users to browse more content, but also helps optimize the internal links of the website.AnQi CMS provides simple and efficient template tags, allowing us to easily meet this requirement.

Understanding the template mechanism of Anqi CMS

The template system of AnQi CMS is designed to be very intuitive, it adopts syntax similar to the Django template engine.This means you can output variables and call function tags with specific symbols.Generally, we need to use double curly braces in template files{{ 变量名 }}To display data, the function tag is represented by single curly braces and the percent sign.{% 标签名 参数 %}To invoke, and with.{% end标签名 %}This structure makes the template code easy to understand and maintain.

When you browse to the detail page of a document, the environment of Anqi CMS has automatically loaded the relevant information of the current document.Therefore, to obtain the "previous" and "next" articles, we do not need to pass the ID of the current document, the system will automatically identify and match.

Implement the 'Previous' document link and title

To display the 'Previous' article of the current document, we can use the built-in functions of Anqi CMSprevArchiveLabel. This label will intelligently search for articles published before the current document and provide their details.

How to use the label:

{% prevArchive prev %}
  {# 在这里，'prev' 是您为上一篇文章数据定义的变量名 #}
  {# 您可以使用 'prev.Link' 获取链接，'prev.Title' 获取标题 #}
{% endprevArchive %}

Code example:

On your document detail page (usually)archiveunder the modeldetail.htmlOr a custom detail page template) you can add code to display the previous article:

<div class="article-pagination">
  <div class="prev-article">
    {% prevArchive prev %}
      {% if prev %}
        <a href="{{ prev.Link }}" title="{{ prev.Title }}">
          <span class="pagination-label">上一篇：</span>
          <span class="pagination-title">{{ prev.Title }}</span>
        </a>
      {% else %}
        <span class="pagination-label">上一篇：</span>
        <span class="pagination-title">没有了</span>
      {% endif %}
    {% endprevArchive %}
  </div>
  {# 这里将放置下一篇文章的代码 #}
</div>

In this example, we first{% prevArchive prev %}Define a variable namedprevvariable to receive the data of the previous article. Then, use{% if prev %}Determine if the previous article exists. If it does, build a link that includes it{{ prev.Link }}and the title{{ prev.Title }}of<a>Label; if not exists, then display "None", which can well handle boundary cases and improve user experience.

Implement "Next article" document link and title

Similar to the 'Previous article', AnQi CMS providesnextArchivetags to get the 'Next article' of the current document.

How to use the label:

{% nextArchive next %}
  {# 在这里，'next' 是您为下一篇文章数据定义的变量名 #}
  {# 您可以使用 'next.Link' 获取链接，'next.Title' 获取标题 #}
{% endnextArchive %}

Code example:

Following the code of the 'Previous article' above, you can use the samediv.article-paginationAdd the display of the next article in the structure:

<div class="article-pagination">
  {# 上一篇文章的代码，如上所示 #}
  <div class="prev-article">
    {% prevArchive prev %}
      {% if prev %}
        <a href="{{ prev.Link }}" title="{{ prev.Title }}">
          <span class="pagination-label">上一篇：</span>
          <span class="pagination-title">{{ prev.Title }}</span>
        </a>
      {% else %}
        <span class="pagination-label">上一篇：</span>
        <span class="pagination-title">没有了</span>
      {% endif %}
    {% endprevArchive %}
  </div>

  <div class="next-article">
    {% nextArchive next %}
      {% if next %}
        <a href="{{ next.Link }}" title="{{ next.Title }}">
          <span class="pagination-label">下一篇：</span>
          <span class="pagination-title">{{ next.Title }}</span>
        </a>
      {% else %}
        <span class="pagination-label">下一篇：</span>
        <span class="pagination-title">没有了</span>
      {% endif %}
    {% endnextArchive %}
  </div>
</div>

By such a layout, users can clearly see and click to go to related previous and next articles after reading the current article, forming a smooth reading path.
