Hello,

I have a view with pagination (infinite scroll) that shows 30 posts on each result set.
In the view I would like to show specific post at index 5, 50 and 100.

The result now:
Index 5 is show on every result set.
Index 50 and 100 is never shown.

I guess the index counter is defaulted to 0 on every result set/new page. Is it possible to get the current "total index value"?

Example:
Each page view has 30 posts, this means that page 3 will begin with the "total index value" of 90 (91,92,93...).

Best regards,
Simon

Dear Simon,

Are you using Views shortcode [wpv-index] to specific post at index 5, 50 and 100?

If it is, yes, you are right, shortcode [wpv-index] only works in current page, if you enable the pagination settings in the view, you will need create other shortcode to get the "total index value",

For example, you can use the (current page number) * (posts per page) + [wpv-index]

Thank you Luoy!

You are correct, I'm using [wpv-index].
I will try to build a shortcode with your example.

Best regards,
Simon
