How to split long blog post in Blogger into multiple pages

Step 1: Usually you will edit your post in compose mode, but this time you are going to do this in HTML mode. Switch to HTML editor, add the span element that you see below and add your blog content in each element respectively. From the below lines you can see that only 1^st page content is visible and the remaining 2^nd, 3^rd and 4^th pages are hidden. So the remaining pages will be visible only if the visitor navigates.

<span class="content1">

Add your first page content here

</span>

<span class="content2" style="display:none">

Add your second page content here

</span>

<span class="content3" style="display:none">

Add your third page content here

</span>

<span class="content4" style="display:none">

Add your final page content here

</span>

<p><b>Pages: <span style="color: #3d85c6;">

<a href="#" class="page1">1</a>

<a href="#" class="page2">2</a>

<a href="#" class="page3">3</a>

<a href="#" class="page4">4</a></span></b></p>

Step 3: Next to make this links to work add the following script just below the pagination links.

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<script style="text/javascript">

jQuery(document).ready(function(){

jQuery('.page1').click(function(){

jQuery('.content1').show();

jQuery('.content2').hide();

jQuery('.content3').hide();

jQuery('.content4').hide();

return false;

});

jQuery('.page2').click(function(){

jQuery('.content1').hide();

jQuery('.content2').show();

jQuery('.content3').hide();

jQuery('.content4').hide();

return false;

});

jQuery('.page3').click(function(){

jQuery('.content1').hide();

jQuery('.content2').hide();

jQuery('.content3').show();

jQuery('.content4').hide();

return false;

});

jQuery('.page4').click(function(){

jQuery('.content1').hide();

jQuery('.content2').hide();

jQuery('.content3').hide();

jQuery('.content4').show();

return false;

});

});

</script>

That’s it! When everything is done publish your article and view it where you will see page links below the content. Just click on the links to see how it works.

2nd Way: Divide/Break Blogger post into differernt Pages

Add the code in Post Editor

Firstly open the post editor and switch to HTML tab. By default the Compose tab is selected. After opening it paste the below code

<style>
.post-pagination {
    margin: 20px auto;
    text-align: center;
    width: 100%;
}
.button_1, .button_2, .button_3 {
    border: 2px solid #f4655f;
    font-weight: 900;
    padding: 6px 36px;
    color:#f4655f;
    transition:ease 0.69s !important;
}
.button_1:hover, .button_2:hover, .button_3:hover {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #f4655f;
    color: #fff;
    text-decoration: none;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('.button_1').click(function(){
jQuery('.content_1').fadeIn('slow');
  jQuery('.content_2').fadeOut('fast');
jQuery('.content_3').fadeOut('fast');
jQuery(this).css('background','#F4655F');
jQuery(this).css('color','#fff');
jQuery('.button_2').css('background','#fff');
jQuery('.button_2').css('color','#F4655F');
jQuery('.button_3').css('background','#fff');
jQuery('.button_3').css('color','#F4655F');
return false;
});
jQuery('.button_2').click(function(){
jQuery('.content_1').fadeOut('fast');
  jQuery('.content_2').fadeIn('slow');
jQuery('.content_3').fadeOut('fast');
jQuery(this).css('background','#F4655F');
jQuery(this).css('color','#fff');
jQuery('.button_1').css('background','#fff');
jQuery('.button_1').css('color','#F4655F');
jQuery('.button_3').css('background','#fff');
jQuery('.button_3').css('color','#F4655F');
return false;
});
jQuery('.button_3').click(function(){
jQuery('.content_1').fadeOut('fast');
  jQuery('.content_2').fadeOut('fast');
jQuery('.content_3').fadeIn('slow');
jQuery(this).css('background','#F4655F');
jQuery(this).css('color','#fff');
jQuery('.button_1').css('background','#fff');
jQuery('.button_1').css('color','#F4655F');
jQuery('.button_2').css('background','#fff');
jQuery('.button_2').css('color','#F4655F');
return false;
});
});
</script>

<div class="content_1">

Add content here

</div>

<div class="content_2" style="display: none;">

Add content here

</div>

<div class="content_3" style="display: none;">

Add content here

</div>

<div class="post-pagination">
<a class="button_1" href="#">1</a>
<a class="button_2" href="#">2</a>
<a class="button_3" href="#">3</a>
</div>

Now replace Add content here with the text you want in the respective pages and publish the post.

Important Points to Note before you move on

·   Make sure you have the jquery plugin in your blog, if not then add the below code just below the code <head> in your template

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

·   It is preferred that you first draft the post and at the last point add this code and make respective changes as due to changing of tabs from Compose to HTML and vice versa the code may automatically get changed.
