I've ran into a problem using the pagination class. Lets say I have a controller photos with method current the uri would be 'photos/current/'

public function action_current($sort = 1, $page = 1, $filter = null){

    $config = array(
            'pagination_url' => "photos/current/$sort/
            'total_items' => 50
            'per_page' => 10,
            'uri_segment' => 4,
        );
//do some stuff
}

that works all good but then if i try to introduce new variables in the pagination url things get weird for example even if i define the uri_segment as 4 if i put something there like

   'pagination_url' => "photos/current/$sort/$page/blah/blah"

it wont replace the 4th part of the query, it just tacks on the next page to the end. which would output something like

 photos/current/1/1/blah/blah/2

I would want it to actually be

photos/current/1/2/blah/blah

Does the page always have tome come last or something?

The Pagination class doesn't do anything intelligent when constructing the URL's. If you want the page to be segment 4, you need to make sure that 'pagination_url' contains 3 segments. It just sticks it on. I store selections/filters and sort order in the users session. It keeps URLs clean, and it also has the advantage that the last selection is remembered when the user revisits the page.

Thats probably the best way to go about it.
