Pagination Plugin for Wordpress
Posted by Duckeldannys Money Blog under: General; Net News; Reviews; Wordpress; seo .
Yesterday I worked on my navigation and searched on google which is the best plugin for Wordpress. Than I have found 2 plugin which should be worked good. I have tested both. Many bloggers say that a good navigation is better for seo.
PageNavi
The first plugin I have tested “PageNavi” don´t worked for me. I don´t know wht I have wrong. Here you can see some really nice previous of this plugin.
- Download WP-PageNavi
- Upload folder “pagenavi” under wp-contents/plugins
- Activate the plugin
- Add the following code into your current theme’s php file.
<?php if(function_exists(’wp_pagenavi’)) { wp_pagenavi(); } ?>
- Configure the settings under WP-Admin -> Options -> PageNavi
- Click “Update Options” and you are done.
Pagerfix
The second plugin was “Pagerfix”. This worked great for me. The results looks very simple, but better than before. Before I have only two buttons “Prev” and “Next”. Look at the bottom of every Page to navigate my pages now better.
Here is an example how it looks:
Installation:
Jaimie Sirovich wrote Pagerfix, a plugin that helps you make your pagination look better.
Save this as pagerfix.php and upload it to your plugin directory and activate it.
Than change this section in f.i. your index.php:
<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft">
<?php next_posts_link('« Older Entries') ?>
</div>
<div class="alignright">
<?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries »') ?>
</div>
</div>
Into this:
<div class="navigation">
<?php
pager_fix(" "," "," ","« Previous page","Next Page »","strong");
?>
</div>
Do that in your index.php, your archives.php, and all other archive templates you might have and let your visitors navigate easier.
