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”.

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.

    How to invert the pagination, I want create a page and spliting in multiples pages to show the recent posts? : This mode: 3, 2, 1. and no Pages 1, 2, 3.

  2. semmy

    Hi thank you very much for your tutorial. It’s work, oh ya I want to ask something about adsense, how we can add adsense below multiple pages, can you create a tutorial for that one? many thanks

  3. Edwin

    Thanks for the tip, I’ve recently tried this, and the pagination shows up correctly, but when clicking the links (2,3,4,etc.), i get a page not found error. Do you have any idea what would cause that?

    • Ricardo Cury

      You might want to check you Permanent Links Structure.

  4. Edmond

    Hi,

    Really love the feature of splitting pages. I also see that you have the “View All” option on list25.com. How can I add that same feature to my website? I’d really love to see a tutorial for this too.

  5. João Paulo Porto

    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.

    Which code are you talking about? I really need this code.

    • Lester

      Olá João Paulo,

      Have you noticed how to manage pagination on wordpress long posts? This thread is not really helpful. I´m using wp 2.2.2 and I´m looking for splitting long posts in 1,2,3,4…view all pages too !

  6. Josh

    how to create pagination like wpbeginner.com ? thanks

  7. Ameet Mehta

    Hi, where is the code that is supposed to be pasted, seems like something got pulled out of the article?

  8. kankan929

    YES!!!! I saw that Kim Komando did this and wondered HOW. So glad I stumbled across this blog. And now I’m a FAN! Thanks for sharing this information.

  9. WPBeginner Staff

    Yes it does if you have long articles with lots of images. You split the page, which reduces the page load time. Increased page views and lower bounce rates are an added bonus.

  10. MikeMeisner

    Great little tip – do you think this helps with SEO and rankings by lowering the bounce rate and increasing pageviews? I notice a few buzzfeed types sites using this method..

  11. Donna

    what is a single.php loop? where do I place that code? the pagination is not working for me.

  12. Jamie_Mannion

    I paste the code in the text view, switch to visual and it’s there as I pasted it, switch back to text and it shows as <!––nextpage––> the problem was the “pasting”. I manually typed it and I was away. Thanks guys!

  13. Patrick

    Hi Syed,
    Thanks for the tip. I’m wondering, though, the page numbers come up at the top of the post, rather than following it. How can I change that, or at least duplicate it?

  14. Bonnie Martin

    Awesome tip. I didn’t know about that before this.

  15. James

    Hi Syed,

    I have just implemented a facebook like button at the top of every post page. and split a few long blog posts up into multiple pages.

    The problem is if someone is on page 3 of the article for example, and clicks the share button, the url of that page gets shared – nameofsite.com/nameofpost/3.

    How can I ensure that just the first page/main page of the post gets shared with all my paginated posts?

    Thank you,

    James

  16. Boby Kurniawan

    You know , i always love this website. I found many wordpress trick here. Thank you .

    I have a question, how i put the “split” at top of article after the title ? is it posible ? thanks .

    Sorry for bad english

  17. Basavaraj Tonagatti

    Hi,
    I have few posts which have plenty of comments like around 800. Because of this these particular posts load slowly. So how if I paginate them by going to Discussion Settings–>Other Comments Settings–>Break Comments into pages of 100 each?

  18. Lops

    Hey! This worked incredibly fine, replacing the — manually did fix it when it didn’t work and now it’s awesome.

    I’m just having trouble because I’m working on very lenghty articles and I would like a table of contents at the top of the page too, not just at the bottom of the page. Can’t we have the [1] [2] [3] etc. links at the top of the page too?

  19. ashutosh joshi

    I need to show “next page” and “previous page” in place of pagination. What should I do for that?

      • David

        You mean, without writing anything in the canonical url space? Does it do it automatically so that I don’t have to specify it?

        Thanks

      • David

        Hi,

        After a bit of investigation, I’ve found out that if you don’t write anything on WPSEO canonical space, wordpress will take care of it and create a different canonical url for each page, with duplicate content. It doesn’t play nice with all the themes probably, so it’s better to check.

        So if you write the right canonical url (usually the main page) in the WPSEO space, it will index the first and not the others and will relate all the others pages /2, /3.. to the first. And this is one solution.

        But if you want to index all the content of the other pages, because maybe they are worth it and long pages as well, then you can write “next” on the canonical space, and all the pages will be linked as rel=”next” and rel=”prev”.

  20. Edward Chung

    Thanks for introducing the technique. What I concern most is the SEO implication, would the author please suggest whether the SEO would be hurt or not? Thanks!

    • WPBeginner Support

      No, if any thing it will probably improve SEO. Your page load time will increase, users will not have to scroll a lot this means user experience will improve. A Better user experience is also one of the factors considered by search engines when ranking a site. Using post pagination correctly will benefit your site’s SEO. However, using it just to increase page and ad impressions will probably backfire.

  21. Oscar Gonzalez

    Do you know of a plugin or a hack that would allow me to give the user an option next to the pagination links when using multiple pages?

    Like page 1, 2, 3,

    OR below that show a link that reads:

    view as one page

    I think some big sites do that with slideshow posts, Any suggestions on providing that to the user?

    Thanks!

  22. Crear Cuenta Outlook

    thank for the info i will use this in my site, but how i can get pagination on the home page?

  23. Kalyan

    I being having a travel blog (wordpress platform), thought of splitting the article. But, by using the method you said above, the url of the page is changing for each split. Is there any plugin or any thing which can split the article with the url remaining the same. Please let me know if you know any such plugin.
    Thanking You

  24. Diana

    The pagination shows up, but whenever I click to an actual page, it still shows me the entire article.

  25. Laurence

    I leave blogs split over many pages they’re really annoying. I can’t scan the page so it takes too long. Especially the blogs that have. “Top 10 whatever” with each one on its own page. Just put them on one page for me why on earth make it harder for me to get content. I don’t think split pages decrease the average bounce rate across all pages.

  26. Aslam

    I saw a lot of people complaining that the code tags aren’t working and the reason is that if you copy paste the on this page it will not work, maybe some character issue with the “–” characters on this page.
    Just manually type the “–” wherever you are using the tag and it will work.
    Manual typing worked for me.

    • Kristof Bernaert

      Exactly the problem I faced too. Thanks for posting that!

    • James Roland

      Thanks! That was my problem as well. Typing it manually did the trick :)

    • Aristides Guerra

      I almost gave up upon manually replacing the underscores ( _ ) from the code given above but then I also replaced the two dashes( — ) from

      and it works! thank you all!

    • Seema

      Thanks Aslam, you solved my problem.

    • Tor André Sandum

      THANKS! Manually writing worked, copy/paste did not!

  27. John

    @Syed Balkhi I have to agree with AleC that original post split looks very boring. Please write a detailed tutorial for a newbies like us, on how to give it a beautiful and stylish looks with eye catching colors, just like you are using at list25. Thanks and i hope you will share it soon with your regular reader. I will wait :)

    • WPBeginner Support

      We will try to show how to style WordPress post pagination links. Meanwhile, do check the Codex page for styling page links. Also feel free to study and use list25 stylesheet and modify it to match your theme.

    Whenever I google any wordpress query, wpbegginner come first, very hard @Syed Balkhi

  29. Christina

    Thank you for your answer. That makes a lot of sense. One more question: Do you know a post pagination plugin with works in combination with a post index? I have some long posts on my website which have their own little post index. If I now implement a post pagination, I would like to keep the post index which means that if a user klicks on a post index element, he should then jump to a separate post sub page.

  30. Christina

    Does post pagination have any impact on site performance/loading time? I was told not to implement it because it slows down the website. Is this true?

    • WPBeginner Support

      The purpose of adding pagination is to break down lengthy posts into pages. It should in fact speed up the page load time.

      Administrador

  31. Lauren Wilson

    Is it possible to have two posts pages? i.e news and jobs?

  32. Sri Ganesh.M

    Not Working, After which line in single.php we should add it ! i added in HTML view only

  33. Kenshin

    Does this work on wordpress.com blogs also?

  34. rami

    YUP!!!It Worked.Thanks for your great contribution.

  35. Pranjal

    I thought, it wasn’t working on mine, lately I read it somewhere else, I need to put the given tag into html view, and finally it worked. Please mention in your article as well, as I know many noobs like me are out there ;)

  36. Jose Robles

    Tried it but my links for the other pages shows up at the way bottom left of my website rather than appearing even before the comments. Any ideas why that would be? Website is ReignMediaLA.com and the theme is Press Grid.

  37. Eva

    Never mind.. :D Of course it worked AFTER I’d tried for half an hour and finally decided to complaint.

  38. Eva

    I’ve tried to use the code but all I get is the code text in my post :/ I’ve only used the HTML window to place the code and yet – there it is – on my post as text, not as next page.

    What can I do?

  39. AleC

    Hi guys,

    Don’t ask me how, but I manage to do this in my site and it works like a charm!
    BUT I don’t know how to give the numbers a style. I’m looking for something like you did in here, big numbers with a huge box of color. Can you help me with this? May be if you give me the line of code you used.
    Sorry if I sound silly, but I don’t really know code.
    Please!

  40. Gidon

    Great! And so easy! Thank you!

  41. Tom

    It wont work even if you follow these instructions, the correct code is ‘ not as you said (you had only single dashes) – also you should tell people that it needs to be entered in html view on visual.

    • Editorial Staff

      Ah darn the auto-formatting. It was showing correctly in the backend, but then on the front-end it turned our two dashes into one big dash. Fixed that. Thanks for pointing it out.

      Administrador

  42. Colin

    Darnit, tried to get this to work on my site but failed :(

    Was hoping as it was a premium theme it would work out of the box but sadly not.

    As an SEO I can say there should be no problem with this SEO-wise. If anything having an extra couple of pages won’t hurt.

  43. Raja

    Hi,

    I tried what you’ve said, but ot still doesnt work on my theme. i’m using goodnews theme from themeforest

    • Editorial Staff

      Hey Raja,

      This is a standard WordPress feature. If it doesn’t work with your theme, then you should contact the theme author and ask them to add the support for it.

  44. wpbeginner

    You know Stephen, I would have agreed with you on almost all of those cases a few months ago. I still do agree with you that this works only in very specific cases. However, after seeing the numbers on our new site, my perspective has changed a little bit. First of all, if your article is good enough, then the user will go to the next page. In terms of SEO, definitely not true. If you have sufficient amount of content on each page, then it will not hurt you in SEO for a single bit. Forbes, NYTimes, and countless other big name sites do this and rank perfectly fine for SEO. If your content is good, then it will be shared, it will be linked, and it will be read by your users.

    • FuturePocket

       @wpbeginner I agree, I am planning to write a three part article (which is going to be somewhere in the area of 5000+ words) and I really don’t want to fit it all into one page. I am contemplating whether to stick with pagination or split it into multiple articles — but I will have to do a little bit more keyword research before I decide. If the ideas I intend to discuss are in a wide variety of keywords, than I’ll probably split it, otherwise this pagination method will work out quite nicely! Thanks for the share.

  45. YuriyNikolaev

    Thanks God for give us WPBeginner!

  46. Stephen Cronin

    Thanks for telling us how to do this, but I hope not too many people actually implement it and split their posts.

    That’s a relic of the days when people artificially increased their page views to increase advertising revenue, but thankfully most people these days recognise that it leads to a poor user experience. I personally leave sites as soon as I see paged articles (unless I really *have* to read it).

    There’s also the SEO implications – you’re probably going to rank better with one long article than you would with 5 smaller pages.

    And I could go on, but I’ll stop there. It’s not a good idea in 99.9% of cases.
