Problem/Motivation
The pager starts counting from 0, which for a human is very confusing as no page 0 exists. This also causes the page numbers displayed in the pager and in the URL to be different from each other.
Now when Views is looking to get into D8, then #1024226: Option to start Pager count at 1 instead of 0 is related to this as well. Unless they will merge into one pager.
Beta phase evaluation
| Prioritized changes | The main goal of this issue is usability. |
|---|---|
| Disruption | This change should not disrupt the internal behaviors of the paging system if the internal counter is unaltered, but will change hardcoded links to specific pages of content, which might require updates to some existing sites. |
Proposed resolution
Do not alter the internal page number, but only show a pager starting at 1 in the URL.
