Paginating the blog

It'd be nice with (global and per-user) settings that determine how many blog entries are displayed per page, and also an option that displays _all_ (visible/viewable) blog entries (much like "all categories") without pagination.
Also, the page navigation options should be placeable (or placed by force) both at the bottom and at the top of the page/workspace/whatever. It's a pain having to roll down to the bottom of the page just to find the "navigation".

Displaying ALL entries on a page is simply overkill; in most blogs that would result in HTML pages with several megabytes of text.
But creating a user-defineable setting how to limit the amount of entries is in the works.
The page navigation option are user-placeable in our development branch, since we use Smarty for templating there.

How "stable" is the dev branch?
(I realize the common answer is in the question, but I mean is it "stable" enough to use? Or will I spend time coding to "fix" or "patch" stuff in the works?)

Well, the dev branch should be usable by now, but issues with old templates may not be fully compatible until now. And there is the chance that some display may not yet be right.
But oddities in display should be the only apparent "bugs" in the release; functionality should not be unstable. We would be glad if you are willing to testdrive the installation and maybe tell us about possible problems!
Best regards,
Garvin

How do you generate page breaks for the page navigation option?

Hi!
How to embed a page break in a post to trigger the navigation option?
Edit your templates/default/entries.tpl file. Look for the '<div class="serendipity_entryFooter">' HTML portion. You can move that anywhere you like within the Smarty template, also within the entry section. Should be quite self-explanatory once you see the HTML.
