Bulk edit on paginated edit.php takes you back to the first page

[nacin]

Side note: Shouldn't we have hashes for pagination? Otherwise we present ourselves a UX issue for links being copy-pasted.

Patch attached.

The reason why it gets redirected to the original page is because in edit.php (as well as edit-comments.php), wp_get_referer() is processed to feed the redirected URL back to wp_redirect().

This means, when you go directly to edit.php?paged=3 for example, then use the javascript pagination feature to navigate to page 4, and do some bulk action there, you'll be redirected to page 3 nevertheless.

Both edit.php and edit-comments.php have this bug. The attached patch fixes it for both. Also, when you delete post / comments on the last page, normally you'll be redirected to a page that says "No posts found". This patch fixes it as well (by redirecting to the correct last page).

Please keep property changes (svn:ignore in this case) out of patches.

removed prop changes from patch

Patch updated.

Btw, is there any way I can leave out the property changes when using "svn diff" ? Is there any command line options for that? Googled around a bit but couldn't find any answers.

Thanks.

Don't know. Instead, here's an alias for svn stat that doesn't list unknown files:

mod(){
	svn stat --ignore-externals | grep '^[^?X]'
}

(In [16855]) Redirect to correct page after bulk action for posts and comments. Props garyc40. Fixes #15416

[scribu]

This works because of the input in the new pagination style. Lucky break :)

(In [16856]) Remove unnecessary comments. See #15416

I just high-level tested the UI regarding this fix against current trunk. It does not work for sorted pagination. Bulk actions still make you loose the sorting in sorted pagination. Sorting again after bulk actions will bring you back to page 1.

Same is in #16162 (related as well), the more general bug about sorting is in #16166.

hakre, please don't reopen all the tickets, create new ones, in this case it's #16166.
The problem mentioned by nacin is fixed here.

Yeah right, the title says "first page", not "wrong page". Right. Fixed in the sense of this title. Mind me, re-opening was in the process to find related tickets.

Does this "needs-testing" has any more meaning on this one?
