I can’t believe I just found out that multi paged post can be done without a plug in. At first, I tried one from Angsuman’s, which for some reason didn’t work on my blog. I didn’t know whether it’s because of theme incompatibility or else. Even so, others using the plug in have reported satisfied with the plug in. If you feel more comfortable using a plug in, download it here.

However, if you don’t want to clutter your plug in section, here’s how you can add the codes manually.

First, let’s open the post editor of any post you want to divide into pages. Go to code view and find a spot where you want the post to break to the next page. After you’ve found it, add <!–nextpage–> into the codes like the following:

On some themes, adding the above code alone won’t display your multipage link. So refresh your post to see if the links appear or not. If it does, mission completed ! If it doesn’t, there’s one more step to go.Open your single.php and locate the code to display your post’s content and then add the following code:

<div class=”pagelink”><?php wp_link_pages(’pagelink=Page %’); ?></div>

As in mine, it looks like:

You can look for the similar part in your source code and then add the codes afterwards. Simple, isn’t it?

If you want to style your links, there are a couple of options you can find on WordPress’ Documentation

Update February 14 2008: I’ve just found out that dividing your post into pages will cause your feed to send only the first page instead of the whole post! I’m sorry I didn’t realize this earlier . I noticed it when my own mail feed arrived. For the moment, if I have another long posts, I’ll post them as series to ensure you all read the whole post.
