Changing your WordPress blog pagination can be a bit of a challenge, but it’s not impossible. Here are a few tips:
1. Check the Default Pagination Settings
The first step is to check the default pagination settings. You can find this information by going to the “Settings” menu on your WordPress blog, and then clicking on “Appearance.” In the “Page Display” section, you’ll see information about the number of pages in each category and the total number of pages. You can also change these settings by editing the wp-config.
php file. However, be careful not to change any of the other settings in this file, or your blog will not function properly.
2. Change the Page Number Template
If your WordPress blog uses a default page number template, you can change it to customize the pagination. To do this, open your theme’s functions.php file and locate the following line:
// get_template_part(); // get_sidebar(); ?> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 // get_template_part ( ) ; // get_sidebar ( ) ?>
Add the following line just before this line: function get_template_part ( ) { return ‘page’; } 1 2 3 4 5 6 function get_template_part ( ) { return ‘page’ ; } Change “page” to whatever template name you want to use for your pagination pages (e.g., “pagination”).
This will determine where the pagination templates files will be located in your theme folder. If you don’t want any pagination templates in your theme, simply delete this line from the file.
3. Change Your Pagination PHP File Settings
If you want to use custom pagination PHP files instead of using the default templates, you’ll need to change some of your WordPress blog’s settings. To do this, open your php file (usually located at wp-content/plugins/yourplugin/wp-config-sample.php) and locate the following lines: define(‘WPML_PAGE_LIMIT’,’100′); // define number of pages in each category define(‘WPML_CATEGORY_LIMIT’,’5′); // define number of categories define(‘WPML_STARTING_PAGE’,’1′); // set starting page 1 //define(‘WPML_ENDING_PAGE’,’9′); // set ending page 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 /** * Filters WPML content for display on front-end */ define ( ‘WPML_PAGE_LIMIT’ , ‘100’ ) ; // define number of pages in each category define ( ‘WPML_CATEGORY_LIMIT’ , ‘5’ ) ; // define number of categories define ( ‘WPML_STARTING_PAGE’ , ‘1’ ) ; // set starting page 1 //define(‘WPML_ENDING_PAGE’ , ‘9’ ) ; // set ending page 1 /** * Sets up WPML header and footer */ wpml Lancet header : header : none ; footer : none ; } 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 /** * Filters WPML content for display on front-end */ define ( ‘WPML_PAGE_LIMIT’ , ‘100’ ) ; // define number of pages in each category define ( ‘WPML_CATEGORY_LIMIT’ , ‘5’ ) ; // define number of categories define ( ‘WPML_STARTING_PAGE’ , ‘1’ ) ; // set starting page 1 //define(‘WPML_ENDING_PAGE’ , ‘9’ ) ; // set ending page 1 /** * Sets up WPML header and footer */ wpml Lancet header : header : none ; footer : none ; }.
