how to set pagination for joomla article groups?

Question

I have a joomla based website. It has about 20 different topics. Every topic has about 10 articles.

How can I add pagination to every topic (front-end, not in the administration panel) to let my users navigate from one article to another article in the same topic?

I have attached an image that may help you exactly get my point:

Answer 1

If by different topics you mean you have the articles in Categories, you can create a Category Blog menu item for each Category.

Then in the Blog Layout Options set # Leading Articles to 1, # Intro Articles to 0, # Columns to 1, Pagination and Pagination Results to Show.

Depending on the version of Joomla you are using and the template involved you may have to fiddle around with Read More... settings for the menu item if your articles have Read More dividers in them.

Depending on your template and Joomla! version you may be able to add the pagination elements using an Output Override or there may even be an extension in Joomla Extension Directory that already does this.

I had the same issue. Actually I accidentally set all categories to unpublish even by default which was set. I set it back to publish and its working back as usual.
