Use the prestashop pagination to display my "item"

[emmeics]

Hi,

I have develope a new module in my prestashop that display many "items" (not products) in a new php page.

In the PHP file situate on the root of shop i have added:

include(dirname(__FILE__).'/pagination.php');
$smarty->assign('nb_products', $total);

And in the TPL file i have added:

{include file=$tpl_dir./pagination.tpl}

But the page still display all items, which parameters i must include? or the pagination is available only for products/manufacturers/suppliers?

Thanks.
