Does anyone have a recommended plugin (that's easy to use) for pagination?

All the ones I've tried so far are a pain. Also, is it possible to have the pagination thing sho

It took a while but I dug up a decent looking dictionary plugin, so we'll see if I can make that work tomorrow! Thanks for the input everyone :)

Have you considered just adding a MORE button after a few sentences? The directions to how are here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_the_Read_More

That would still leave the person scrolling a long distance after they clicked to read more..if I understand what you're saying correctly.

Hi Stacy, I never really could wrap mt head around this whole pagination thing. About a year ago it bugged me so bad that I went out and did some research. From what I gather, pagination isn't something we have to be worried about anymore.

I know that doesn't answer your question and you might have another reason you're looking into this. But I thought I'd share my finding's with you in case they help.

Please keep us updated.

Thanks good to know I didn't want it for much, I only want it for one page.

I'm happy to hear it if someone has a better idea to accomplish the goal!

It's just because I have a page that's really long (alphabetically) and I didn't want a reader to have to scroll 20 pages to be able to see what's under letter "w" for example..

Man, all this talk about pagination and plugins and analytics. I'm a lost soul right now in the world of Internet marketing. I wish I could answer your questions. Better yet, I wish I could answer my own questions. All I know how to do is write, research and learn. But I will be here once I learn. Hey, hey and Cheers!

:)) It's all good. Thanks for replying. I remember how it's been for me on many days before now and still...what language is all this stuff again?? Sure doesn't look like English!
Pagination is a new one for my book and I think its a cool word too lol. I'll keep working at it, there has to be something to do the job.

Pagination for me is collecting printed out paper and making sure they are in the correct order? Or is that collate (collation)? :) lol

:)) wiki says that's to collate. How's this? Pagination would be the virtual visual letter or number tabs to your collated printed pages if they were online lol.

I actually knew that. It was stuck in the back of my head behind all the editing shit that I learned after doing work-study (college work for money paid by the university) collating and inserting page numbers in manuscripts. Awghg!! MUST STOP BEING ON THE COMPUTER. MUST EAT. Cheers and have a great night.

Lol absolutely! Have a great night. It's when you put the sandwich in the drive that you have a bigger problem.

I do not know anything about this perticular plugin but you do want to think about adding too many plugins to your site cause they will slow down your site ftom opening up, causing people to bale real quick

Thanks :) ya I have the number of plugins limited for that reason. But pagination would be really helpful on one of my pages.

Cool no prob

I found this great information on the difference between them. It explains when you should use a post and when you should make a page. I wish I had known this at the beginning I

Ohhhh do I feel your pain!

:))

Great information. Help a lot. :)

I'm glad it helped!

:)

That's an awesome description, thanks for sharing. I'm sure a lot of people would benefit from this information.

Yw, I think you're right.:)

Thank you for this, I have wondered this before.

Np :)

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing, very helpful.

:) yw.

Good information . Thanks for sharing that . I've wondered that myself .

No problem :) glad it helped.

Good stuff! Thanks!

Yw, it's a great list to be on. They've always sent great info and I've learned a lot from them. They favor plugins, so just don't install every one they recommend.

I have a question for any of the seasoned pros ;)

If I have a site that is set wrong as far as which info is on pages and which info is on posts...

Should I change them now? Is it hurting my site to have some of the info the wrong way around?

The site has some age and decent ranking in some areas. Would I lose that if I switched them?

Thanks for any insight from anyone!

I have the same problem and I would like to see the answer for this one too:)

Great info, thanks for sharing ;-)

Yw :)

Does anyone know why on my dashboard of one site the featured image box is missing and on my other site the box to add a featured image is there.

Hey Stacy. How's you?! If you edit a page or post, then click on Screen Options (top far right of the screen) you should see a tickbox for Featured Images. Just tick it and it should appear in the bottom right of the window. :) Rich.

I'm good, how about you?

I looked in that spot previously and that option isn't there on this one site. It gives only "Author, Categories, Tags, Comments, Date, SEO, Title, SEO Description and SEO Keywords.

...but my other sites all show it just fine (including that option). That's why I thought it might be the theme.

I'z fine, thanks. I'm afraid in that case, it's likely your theme doesn't support Featured Images. If you tell me the theme name, I'll be happy to check it for you or you can click the name in the footer and see if the developer's website has more info. R. x

Ok that's cool, thanks. I was thinking it was just the theme causing the headache. I couldn't think of anything else that was different between the sites. I'm getting set to change the theme anyway so I can have more options and cooler features. :)

I've just discovered with the help of another awesome member that my Amazon "buy" links on my website display differently depending on the browser being used.

I use Chrome

http://yourwealthyaffiliatesite.com/wp-admin/credits.php
http://winenitems4all.com/wp-admin/
completely different both configured with new user names

Why in my WP account they are different one has more tools than the other

I have just noticed I have the same problem, my site looks fine with all images showing up on Chrome, but if I check it out on IE, even some of my images are not showing???

It's frustrating for sure, once caylynn said it was code heavy to fix it I stopped trying.

I'm not sure I know how to fix it, but IE is becoming a less used browser these days. Firefox and Chrome are moving on up the preferred list - IE is awful - I generally use Firefox

Have traveled this road too. These are in my files:
See my PM, hope to copy and paste. Cannot put these URL's in.

There is no quick fix unless you are a programmer of HTML and CSS, aka 'code monkey'. LOL. Haven't used the one @Rich gives you, but will put it on my list.

Thank you Stacydee for this discussion. We are both trying to cross the pond. ^_~

Thanks for the pm, I haven't looked at it yet. I'm glad to know it's a larger problem than just something I'm doing wrong, too bad it's not an easier fix.

Unfortunately, this is a major issue with IE, many features and code functions don't work correctly with it because they implement their own "tweaks" which are outside of the standards. There are various emulators for browsers and people check their sites through multiple versions of them and operating systems. However, you often need to be a "code monkey" to modify the results to display perfectly across all browsers, all mobile devices, Windoze 98, XP, Vista, Mac OSX, iOS, Linux, etc. blah. Rich.

Well, that's no fun at all. I get it now, thanks for explaining it.
Do you know why it would be affecting just the Amazon links and not the others?

It's impossible to say, it's quite likely that your own formatting either via HTML or from your CSS is causing this rather than anything Amazon's doing, either via the editor or from your theme, but you need a "code monkey" to work it out, ie. here's an irrelevant example, of how certain browsers support certain functions and not others http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_track.asp Sorry, Stacy, I know "why" but not how to fix it. :( Rich.

I've been here almost three years and literally every time/everyday that I sit down to do this and work on my sites, I dig up or stumble across a new piece of WA training or help f

Hey Stacey, I'm glad that you're consistently finding new things here at WA, and we'll work hard to make sure this doesn't stop! We've got a platform where we can deliver information instantly, and every day there are 1000's of comments and live chats, lots of valuable blog posts, discussions, and training being created. I too find great new resources and information on a daily basis!!

Carson

Absolutely, I always find new elements in WA, daily and I'm sure I still only use 10% of what's here. You guys are light years ahead of me so no worries on trying to keep ahead!

The power of a community allows us all to learn faster.
The value of that is priceless by itself.

From day 1 at WA back in 2005, we wanted to create a community, but in the Internet marketing industry no one wanted to share info. Everyone thought they had some "SECRET" to hide from everyone. We knew this was not the case and it took a while to catch on. I'd say that having a community behind you where you can learn and share with, helps people learn at 10x or 20x the speed of doing it on their own. Now that the Internet has gone social, it's a lot easier to see the huge value of a community of like-minded people!

Thanks for your thoughts :)

It's amazing the vision you two had, well ahead of your time as far as what the internet was doing at the time in 2005.

At that time, I was fiddling around online (completely clueless) and trying to see through all the crap products out there to make money online and not knowing that everything I was looking at was crap so there was no hope at all!

It's when I started to notice that I was being emotionally manipulated by these products was when I figured out they were all playing me for a fool. I thought I knew what I was doing.

But after finding WA in late '09 and joining it in '10, I found out that I didn't have a clue and had a lot to learn. But I knew WA was the place to do it, even if I had no idea what "it" was at the time...

It is amazing! I use the training every day.

If you divide the monthly cost of premium by how many times you use, learn and benefit from a tutorial or training, the cost of learning all this cool stuff is soooo cheap. There is no place more complete and nothing even comes close to the cost vs value ratio.

You are absolutely right. As a knowledge bank this WA site is second to none and all in one place -how good is that.
Regards
Hudson

Totally cool and so useful and helpful. It's so much easier with the help of pros.

It happens all the time....some times just small little stuff or at times things that I wonder how did I miss that....???

It is amazing more you know about IM the more you don't know.....emmm

Now the new format is making it a bit easier to find these little things....and the videos....making it easier all the time...

Oh yeah lets see what was the last thing...it has been a while....oh....finally got G+ set up properly.....I was close but did not have it quite right.....weird how that happens.....glad it does....

Nice post...

I agree Tim...love those videos too!

I have those days all the time. I love the videos they will usually get you out of a jam. The more I learn about IM the more it feels like I don't know very much. Visually, I'm a little teeny bunny trying to climb up a mountain (and I'm at the bottom).

I have G+ set up but not really using it. All but one of my circles are small and I only have a few (the only large one is the people from WA). I don't know how to grow the circles, and haven't gone to look for a training yet :))

You think you missed stuff, I missed loads. I think when you first get here you are so keen and fired up you just get on, do the training and get your website up. You dont really absorb the information just use it (I did) So going through the boot camp made me realize what I had learnt but had not fully remembered how important it was.

I tried for hours to solve problems, going to live chat and the guys and gals in the know just pointed me back to a training in WA that was right in front of me all the time.

So yes it's all here, just got to find it!!!!!!!!!
Recommend the boot camp folks!

Absolutely, I recommend the bootcamp too. It pointed out quite a few things that I had missed previously, and I understand more.

I've had that happen in the chat area too when you ask something and someone just posts a link to a training with the answer to the question, eventually I learned to just search the training here. :)

A big thank you to everyone who has made awesome trainings here!

All is well for me, and I hope for you too! I used to do the same thing but have since learned to search here first. Just about everything is right here under our noses.

The first Bootcamp is well worth the time and effort, it takes you from nothing to a really nice site framework to promote WA. The second camp will add more substance to the sites.

It took me more than 10 days to finish it though, I think just going through it completely is more important than how fast it gets done. Good luck with it, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Hi Stacy! This happens to me all the time.

I use to go directly to youtube looking for the information I required, but WA is always my first "go to " now. I just completed the Online Certification Lessons again. It's a great refresher course. Now I think I'll start the first Bootcamp Course...they're starting the second Bootcamp this Wednesday so I'm a little behind schedule...lol.

Hope all is well =)
