Cómo dividir entradas de WordPress en varias páginas (paginación de entradas)

Las entradas largas en WordPress pueden ser difíciles de leer. ¿Cómo compartir contenido detallado sin perder el interés de tus lectores?

La respuesta es la paginación de entradas, que consiste en dividir una entrada larga en varias páginas más cortas. Hemos utilizado este método para dividir grandes guías y largos tutoriales en algunos de nuestros proyectos de blog. En todos los casos, hemos advertido una mayor participación de los lectores en el contenido.

En esta guía, le mostraremos cómo dividir sus entradas de WordPress en varias páginas. Vamos a cubrir métodos fáciles, con y sin un plugin.

How to Split WordPress Posts

¿Por qué dividir entradas de WordPress en varias páginas?

Si tiene entradas de blog o guías en WordPress que son largas, entonces establecer la paginación en WordPress puede mejorar la legibilidad de su contenido.

Ayuda a dividir una entrada larga en diferentes secciones y a dividirlas en varias páginas. De este modo, los visitantes pueden digerir fácilmente el contenido y leer cualquier sección que les interese.

Otra ventaja de dividir entradas en WordPress es que puede aumentar la participación de los usuarios. Cuando los usuarios navegan por contenido paginado, cada página que ven contribuye a aumentar las páginas vistas, lo que puede tener un impacto positivo en las métricas generales de tu sitio web.

Dicho esto, echemos un vistazo a cómo dividir entradas de WordPress en varias páginas. Vamos a cubrir cómo romper sus entradas de WordPress en varias páginas sin un plugin y el uso de un plugin de WordPress:

Método 1: Dividir una sola entrada en varias páginas sin plugins

La forma más sencilla de establecer la paginación de entradas es utilizar el bloque “Salto de página” del editor de bloques de WordPress. No necesitas ningún plugin de WordPress para dividir tus artículos en varias páginas.

En primer lugar, debes editar o añadir una nueva entrada en tu sitio web de WordPress utilizando el editor de bloques Gutenberg.

A continuación, haga clic en el botón “+” donde desee dividir el contenido y añada un bloque de salto de página.

Add a page break block

Ahora debería ver una línea de salto de página en su contenido para indicar dónde aparecerá la paginación.

Será algo parecido a esto.

See page break in your content

Si utiliza el antiguo editor clásico, puede utilizar la etiqueta <!--nextpage--> para dividir el contenido.

Al escribir una entrada de blog, basta con ir a la vista “Texto” del editor para introducir la etiqueta en la que desea dividir el artículo largo.

Insert next page tag in the classic editor

También puede utilizar las teclas Alt + Mayús + P del teclado para insertar saltos de página. Para ello, ve a la vista “Visual” y pulsa las teclas de atajo donde quieras añadir un salto de página.

A continuación, puede obtener una vista previa y publicar la entrada del blog. Ahora verá la paginación de la entrada en la parte inferior del contenido de la entrada.

Método 2: Dividir varias entradas de WordPress en varias páginas usando un plugin

Otra forma de dividir un contenido extenso en varias páginas es utilizar un plugin de paginación. La ventaja de este método es que paginará automáticamente las entradas cuando cumplan ciertos criterios.

Para este método, usaremos el plugin gratuito Automatically Paginate Posts, ya que es fácil de usar y funciona con cualquier tema de WordPress.

Aviso: Puede que hayas notado que este plugin no ha sido probado con las últimas versiones de WordPress. Sin embargo, lo hemos comprobado nosotros mismos y es el que mejor funciona de todos los plugins que hemos marcado / comprobado.

Puede leer más acerca de si debe utilizar plugins de WordPress no probados en nuestro artículo. Si encuentras un plugin que funciona mejor que el que te ofrecemos, ¡no dudes en hacérnoslo saber en los comentarios de abajo!

Primero, necesitas instalar y activar el plugin Automatically Paginate Posts en tu sitio web WordPress. Para más detalles, puedes ver nuestro tutorial sobre cómo instalar un plugin de WordPress.

Una vez que el plugin esté activo en tu sitio, ve a Ajustes ” Lectura y desplázate hasta la sección ‘Paginar entradas automáticamente’.

Puede seleccionar los tipos de entradas que desea dividir en diferentes páginas. A continuación, elija si desea dividir las entradas por el número total de páginas o por el número aproximado de palabras por página.

Automatically Paginate Posts section

A continuación, haz clic en el botón “Guardar cambios” para establecer los ajustes.

El plugin dividirá automáticamente su contenido en función de sus ajustes. Sin embargo, también puedes añadir saltos de página manualmente a tu contenido mientras usas el plugin.

Consejo adicional: Utilice AIOSEO para optimizar la paginación de sus entradas

Paginar una entrada larga puede mejorar la experiencia del usuario. Dicho esto, es importante que configures la entrada correctamente para que no afecte negativamente al SEO (posicionamiento en buscadores) de tu sitio.

Si una entrada de blog se distribuye en varias páginas debido a la paginación, Googlebot podría acabar indexando varias copias del mismo contenido. Esto puede dar lugar a problemas / conflictos / incidencias de contenido duplicado.

Afortunadamente, puede evitarlo utilizando el plugin All in One SEO (AIOSEO). Este plugin SEO para WordPress facilita la optimización SEO de tu sitio, incluso si no tienes conocimientos técnicos.

AIOSEO inserta automáticamente un número de página en el título SEO del contenido paginado. De esta forma, los motores de búsqueda pueden entender que la entrada se ha repartido en varias páginas y no es un duplicado de otra entrada.

The AIOSEO settings page

Además, AIOSEO quitará estos números de página de las URL de las páginas de sus entradas. De este modo, los motores de búsqueda sabrán cuál es la página principal de la entrada del blog que deben clasificar para las palabras clave relevantes y que los usuarios deben ver en primer lugar.

Para ello, activa automáticamente el ajuste “Sin paginación para URL canónicas”.

AIOSEO's no pagination for canonical URLs setting

Más consejos para gestionar contenidos largos en WordPress

Dividir las entradas en páginas es sólo una forma de gestionar contenidos largos. Aquí tienes otras técnicas que nos han resultado útiles:

  • La información emergente es ideal para añadir detalles adicionales sin saturar el contenido principal. Aparecen al pasar el cursor sobre determinadas palabras.
  • Mantenga la participación de los lectores mostrándoles contenido relacionado justo en medio de sus entradas.
  • Si tiene que tratar un debate extenso, considere la posibilidad de crear una serie de entradas en lugar de escribir una entrada larga sobre el tema. Esto ayuda a los lectores a seguir el tema con facilidad.
  • El título de la entrada suele ser un único encabezado, pero puede dividirlo en una nueva línea si es demasiado largo para hacerlo más legible.

    From the point of view of seo, is it better to write one long article or divide it like this and more pages? It seems to me that a long one is better from a point of view, but maybe you have other experiences?

    • WPBeginner Support

      It heavily depends on the content and how the pagination is used but pagination should be used more for readability than SEO.

        Thank you for answer. I know that in the past it was done very often. The user may not be afraid of a large amount of text. Personally, I’m afraid that the robot will leave the site without visiting the others, and I prefer not to do this technique and try to break up the text with graphics. Anyway, thanks for the response

  2. Dapo

    Thank you for this post. Unfortunately, this does not show anything on the frontend.

    • WPBeginner Support

      If pagination is not working for your site, there is a chance that your theme does not allow pagination. In these cases we recommend checking with the support for your specific theme and they can normally help :)

    I follow this tutorial and working fine. But i have some issue, when i click pagination on page 1 or 2 everything is going fine, but when i’m going to the last page in this case is page 3, my layout structure under pagination like a related post, comments and right sidebar are broken so my website looks ugly on thoose parts. Any suggestion related this issue?.

    • WPBeginner Support

      You would want to reach out to the support for your specific theme and let them know about that formatting error and they should be able to assist

    Hi guys,

    may it be that this doesn’t work when using the Divi theme?

    I tried, but nothing happens…

    Thanks!

    • WPBeginner Support

      Hi Dave,

      These are not misleading links. We own list25 website and they are linked in reference to show users example of how Post Pagination is used. List25 uses it to display a post on two pages and fives pages.

  8. Lauro Carvalho

    Very simple and useful! I was really looking for this. Much appreciated!

  9. suzanne ball

    That part works fine but I can’t get my title for the 2nd page to take the “/2/” so the wonderful pagination you just showed takes you TO the 2nd page

  10. Ankit

    Hello,

    Thank you for this tutorial, it is helpful!

    Though I want to know what to do if I want a button directing to next page of the same post, instead of 1,2,3… page number below?

    How can I do that?

  11. Rhonda

    My theme is DIVI and I tried the alt, shift and p option and instead it displayed the following symbol inside worpdress editor:

    Its for a post and I do not use the DIVI BUILDER for posts.

    Why did it not work?

  12. Nrusingh

    Sir/Madam,

    Thanks for helping me many times, and I am stuck once again.

    I want pagination on a page not posts. I have a page with 30 thumbnails with different page links. So, I want to paginate them into 3 pages with 12 (4 rows x 3 columns) thumbnails each. Is there a way?

    Thanks In Advance
    Have a nice day ahead

  13. Shiraz

    It works for me, but with some layout issue. The pagination buttons are not in same row.

  14. Darius Spearman

    Awesome…except no pagination is showing at the bottom and I don’t know what a “single.php loop” is. Can someone explain what that is and to add something to it?

  15. Jos Mwangi

    Thank you guys for this guide, I have been trying to do this the whole day! But I have a quick question though, is it possible to make the introduction appear on every page of the blog post? Like making it “sticky” at the top of every sub-page.

  16. Jordan Ring

    Thank you for the help! Spent over an hour trying to figure this out with the Divi theme. The Alt Shift P did the trick! Finally!

    • waqastaqee

      thanks alot. thus was vary helpful. i was trying for hours but don’t get it.
      “alt+ shift+ p” done

  17. Joseph Chotard

    Thank you,

    This is helped me a lot as I had no idea how to create multiple pages.

  18. Wenda

    Thank you. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this instruction. PERFECT! Thank you thank you thank you! I was thinking I’d need a plugin or theme change and well… you just solved in under 3 minutes something that I’ve already spent like 30 minutes trying to figure out! THANK YOU!

  19. Regel Javines

    I have a Twenty Ten theme of my blog
    Now, ALT+SHIFT+P works for my well. However, it appears super below the post that it takes the reader to scroll down to see the 2nd page.
    How can I let it appear right after the end page of the post to avoid scrolling down. And, is there any code for a button NEXT, PREVIOUS page instead of Page 1, 2? Please help…

  20. Aizal

    Thanks for this. Although need to ask, is there any plugin or code to make the pagination to appear as buttons?

    • Dankasaurus

      Not sure if there’s a plugin but normally you would have to modify that with CSS.

  21. Enrique

    Sorry if this is stupid, but if you copy and paste the from this article, it won’t work. The dashes are different from what they should be. You have to type it directly in your editor. I copied this and it didn’t work until I typed it with the correct dashes.

    • Enrique

      The comments system removed a word. What I meant is
      “…If you copy and paste the “nextpage” from this article…”

      • André Quintão

        Thanks, you saved me a lot of trouble. :) Cheers!

  22. Simo

    Hello, I had to modify the single.php but rarely it worked on the last post where I did the modification and wrote sorry i don’t remember now exactly the shortcode, but when I introduced the short code in other posts it didn’t work and it appear on the post he shortode..

    So, firsly it didn’t work so I tryed it on a post, then I modified the single.php and then it worked , probably later i did some modification on the single.php, and i tryed the shortcode on other post without outcome, but still working on the frst post i modified… it’ very strange why it work on a post and not on others?

    May cache doing some “joke”

    Thank You.

  25. Bidyot

    Dear Sir,

    Thanks a lot. We have successfully add single post pagination as per your suggestion.
    But we are facing another problem.

    Pagination is displaying after our related posts display.

    How can we display pagination above the related posts column.

    Any help highly appreciated.

    • WPBeginner Support

      For that you may need to edit your WordPress theme or settings of your related posts plugin. If your related posts plugin automatically adds related posts, then you need to contact plugin support to learn how you can delay it so that post pagination is shown first. If your related posts plugin provides a template tag, then you need to add that tag into your theme’s single.php or content-single or content.php template after the the_content() tag in the code.

    Why do I get duplicate content in google webmaster tools after splitting a blog post to 3 pages? And how to prevent this?

  27. Bora Kurekci

    The recommended solution of “Alt+Shift+p” gorgeously worked for the theme SemPress on my blog.
    Thank you so much

  28. Anthony Franck

    This is really cool and it worked, kind of. The page numbers are super ugly and there is a “glaring inconsistency”.

    I did see that your demo site list25 has beautiful red squares, I was wondering how you went ahead and created the nice squares?

    Would it be possible to make a demo for that and send us the link?

    Also About halfway through my setting this up on my website it struggles to handle the page breaks. They are all there but putting 12 jpegs between 12 page breaks freezes up my website and it won’t allow me to load anymore images on the post. Has anyone had any issues with this crashing the database? Thanks in advance for any help

    • WPBeginner Support

      You can see the List25 CSS by right clicking on the page navigation and select Inspect from browser menu.

    I’d just like to say, before anyone clicks the link in this comment, it is NSFW.

    Now, on to my question.

    Here is the page I want to split into multiple:

    My problem is, there are around 80+ posts on that page already. How can I manually add a next page/next post/more to the page so that it can be split into multiple pages, instead of showing every single post and every single image on 1 page?

    It makes it awful inconvenient. It also forces the page to take forever to load. Try it out yourself. See how long it takes to load.

    Can anyone assist? What WP code can I use to break the page up? Everything I see mentions “posts” and not “pages”, unfortunately.

    • WPBeginner Support

      Your WordPress theme should automatically handle this. It seems like either your plugin or a plugin you are using is lazy loading or pre-loading all the posts. Visit Settings » Reading page. There you can select how many posts you want to show on your blog pages. If it is already set at 10 or less, then this means you should check your plugin and themes. If it is set to a much higher number then you can change that here and save your settings.

    Whenever, I insert the nextpage tag in the HTML of the post I get the page number at the bottom of the post area. But, the problem is that some other plugins like author box and wordpress related posts are being shown before the page numbering which makes it invisible to readers.

    Is there any way to put the page numbering just below the post area e.g. below adsense link unit in the post area?

  31. me

    Very Bad idea

    user really hate to click 1 – 9 and 9- 1 just to read it

    u maybe think about How to Increase Pageviews and Reduce Bounce Rate

    but user will just close the tab

    • Dyc3r

      You can use “Next/Previous” instead of page numbers with the following:

      `wp_paginate_links( array( “next_or_number” => “next” ) );`

      Incidentally, this is my biggest issue with the core function. There’s a glaring inconsistency between `paginate_links()` and `wp_link_pages()` in that the latter forces you to choose between numbers and next/previous.

      Granted, since this is designed to flip between pages of a single post versus pages of an “archive”, the number of available pages will (or should) be relatively low, but it would be nice to have a little more flexibility similar to what we get with archive pagination

  32. besty

    Nice post, it worked for me but how do i make the Next Page appear immediately after the post instead of after the related post? what i mean is that my site related Posts showing before the Next Page Link.

    How can you help?
    thanks

    • Mantas

      Same problem here. Does anyone knows solutions to this problem?

    • Stephen Pate

      That appears on my site and looks like Jetpack features get ahead of the pagination.

  33. Val Archer

    Hi – I’m using index.php for my posts which are all one-per-page. doesn’t work for me, so I added just below the loop in index.php but it still doesn’t work. So I saved index.php as single.php because you mention “you would need to add the following code in your single.php loop.” So I figured maybe it works only in single.php but not in index.php?

    But now I can’t find where to tell wordpress to use single.php as the template for blog posts! I have a static front page. The page “Posts — Posts Page” does not give the option of choosing a template. Somehow once upon a time I told it to use the “Template Name: IndexMine” for posts. But I don’t know how or where!

    Please can you tell me how I can tell wordpress to use single.php for blog posts? Then hopefully will work? Thank you!

    • Dyc3r

      If I understand your issue correctly, you’re actually using this function in the wrong place. Think of your site like a library/bookstore where each post is a book.

      — `posts_per_page` determines how many books you put on a shelf.
      — `wp_link_pages()` will turn the page in the book you are currently reading
      — `paginate_links()` will move to a new shelf

      It sounds like you want to move to a new shelf, in which case, `paginate_links()` is the function you need

  34. Maran

    I was thinking if there a way to do it. You guys rock. I am glad that I am following on twitter.

    If for some reason, pagination is not showing up after you have pasted the next page tags, then you would need to add the following code in your single.php loop.
