Walker::paged_walk( array $elements, int $max_depth, int $page_num, int $per_page, mixed $args )

paged_walk() – produce a page of nested elements

Description

Given an array of hierarchical elements, the maximum depth, a specific page number, and number of elements per page, this function first determines all top level root elements belonging to that page, then lists them and all of their children in hierarchical order.

$max_depth = 0 means display all levels. $max_depth > 0 specifies the number of display levels.

Parameters

$elements

(array) (Required)

$max_depth

(int) (Required) The maximum hierarchical depth.

$page_num

(int) (Required) The specific page number, beginning with 1.

$per_page

(int) (Required)

$args

(mixed) (Optional) additional arguments.

Return

(string) XHTML of the specified page of elements

More Information

This method can be used to initialize the Walker class. This function works like walk() but allows for pagination. $page_num specifies the current page to render while $per_page specifies the number of items to show per page. Any additional arguments passed to this method will be passed unchanged to the other methods.
