Setting new selected value post-mount

I’m attempting to manipulate the selected page number of PaginationBoxView without a user click (such as on pushState) after the component has been mounted. What I found was that the selected state wasn’t updating because that state is only set before the initial mount.

I opened a PR with a simple solution using componentWillReceiveProps, let me know if this is appropriate: #61

You should be able to do what you want by updating the forcePage prop each time you want to change the selected page.

<ReactPaginate forcePage={2} />

Hello, In case it can help you, on version 6.5.0 of react-paginate, you can now define the event you want to listen onto. You just need to instantiate the component with an eventListener prop.

For instance:

<ReactPaginate eventListener="onTouchStart" />
