            <li><a class="prev" href="\$Items.PrevLink">Previous</a></li>
        <% end_if %>
        <% loop $Items.PaginationSummary %>
            <li>
                <% if $CurrentBool %>
                    <span>$PageNum</span>
                <% else %>
                    <% if $Link %><a href="$Link">$PageNum</a><% else %><span>...</span><% end_if %>
                <% end_if %>
            </li>
        <% end_loop %>
        <% if $Items.NotLastPage %>
            <li><a class="next" href="$Items.NextLink">Next</a></li>
        <% end_if %>
    </ul>
<% end_if %>

cms_templates_disabled

Set to true to disable fields for editing the listing template in the CMS.

An array of locations relative to the project root directory to be scanned for listing templates. If any templates exist, CMS users can select one to be used for rendering the listing.

Within a source directory, templates must be placed in a templates/Heggsta/ElementalListing/ListingTemplates/ directory, e.g. templates/Heggsta/ElementalListing/ListingTemplates/MyTemplate.ss

Default: [] (empty array)
