In drupal 7, How to override theme_pager?

Question

I am using drupal 7 and zen theme. And am not able to override the theme_pager using zen_pager function in template.php. Any suggestion pls?

Answer 1

Implement all/selected of the following theme functions in your template.php:

• theme_pager() - main theming function, using:

  • theme_pager_first()
  • theme_pager_previous()
  • theme_pager_next()
  • theme_pager_last()

changing 'theme' in each of these function names to short name of your theme.

Answer 2

If you are using Zen, you are probably writing a sub-theme. Inside its template.php you will have to prefix the theme_pager function with your sub-theme name, like pretty_pager if yout sub-theme is called "pretty".

Zen will clear the caches for you, but if it doesn't work, try clearing the caches manually. The Devel Themer module will help you check which theme function is being called.
