The WordPress Evangelist

I got an inquiry from one of my blog’s readers about post pagination, which I used in my previous post. Well, it’s very simple. To split your post into separate sub-pages, simply use the WordPress Quicktag, <!--nextpage-->.

Remember the <!--more--> tag? It cuts the post where it’s placed when the post appears in the blog’s front page. The <!--nextpage--> tag, on the other hand, works as a ‘paginator’ for single posts, and divides them into sub-pages where they’re placed. You can have as many pages as you like (but don’t over do it).

For example (use the HTML view when inserting the quicktag):

<h3>Step #5</h3>
Consectetuer rutrum urna in, a molestie aliquam gravida, quam vestibulum ac. Consequat ut lacus tempus a ipsum, sociis urna sed, vel tellus maecenas, lorem maecena's tortor. At odio platea etiam. <strong>Euismod libero</strong> pretium accumsan pellentesque ac. Quam semper in vitae dictum eget, ipsum magna orci odio lectus. Nemo enim ipsam voluptatem quia voluptas sit aspernatur aut odit.

Please see the next page for the last 3 steps.
< !--nextpage-->
<h4>Step #6</h3>
Sed ut perspiciatis unde omnis iste natus error sit voluptatem accusantium doloremque laudantium, <em>totam rem aperiam</em>, eaque ipsa quae ab illo inventore veritatis et quasi architecto beatae vitae dicta sunt explicabo.

As you might have seen in my last post:
