Django paginate Original Search Result

Question

I use ListView to display the search result and use forms to enter user input values, this is the problem: when I get the search results, say 50 items, and I set item_per_page 30, so I got two pages, but now that I I click on the link to the next page, it forgets the previous search request and shows me all the elements on page 2, how to fix it? My code is below:

my form fields look like this:

<form method="get" action="{% url 'query_student' %}"> #the form fields </form> 

my page template:

 {% if is_paginated %} <div class="pages"> {% if page_obj.has_previous %} <a href="/student/querystudent?page={{ page_obj.previous_page_number }}">previous</a> {% endif %} <span class="btnon"> page {{ page_obj.number }} total {{ page_obj.paginator.num_pages }} </span> {% if page_obj.has_next %} <a href="/student/querystudent?page={{ page_obj.next_page_number }}">>next</a> {% endif %} </div> {% endif %} 

Answer 1

you do not have a query string with all your form data

The simplest solution would be to use django-url-tools , then in the links to the previous / next page you will add:

 {% load urls %} ... {% add_params request.get_full_path page=page_obj.previous_page_number %} ... {% add_params request.get_full_path page=page_obj.next_page_number %}
