This one looks like it could be helpful but I keep getting lost in the implementation instructions.

Thanks for that…but it’s not what I want to do, you’re right.
There has to be a way to take a group of postings (category) and simply paginate between them in a way that is easy to control and easy to manage.
I’m fine with each “page” being a separate post if it needs to be, but there has to be a way to write a ten page “article” where they layout is the same on each, and give clear pagination amongst those posts.
Thanks…that
.post-nav {display:none}
was exactly what I was looking for…perfect. Thank you!
Now I’m stuck on the “how do you navigate from post to post”.
There are tons of plug ins out there which say that’s what they do but then I get lost in how to implement. Surely there has to be a simple way to:
1. Group posts together
-maybe all within a category or sub-category?
-then I guess I could order their time stamp to be in the backwards order I want them in
2. Add navigation within the posts in that subcategory.
This page seems to be talking about what I want to do but not clear on how to implement it.

And then there are these plugins I’m investigating…

I’ll check out your suggestion as well…thanks again.
If you have any helpful advice knowing now what I’m trying to do and if you can tell me which part of this is relevant and maybe what to put where for Graphene I’d sure appreciate it! I don’t get it…everyone must have this issue if they want to group posts like a multi page article?
That leads to another question actually…given my goal is to create, say, many ten page articles like this…and have the user easily go from page one > 2 > 3 etc. is there a fundamentally different way to do this?
Pages with children pages?
Categories with sub categories?
I just feel like I’m going about this awkwardly and I’ve now spent the entire day trying to figure it out without any luck yet.
As always, thanks.
I mean like if this were a post
http://www.businessinsider.com/best-first-class-airlines-2010-12#-10-thai-airways-1
How would I mimic the back and forward arrow navigation within a post so that the user can easily go to the next page (post)?
My page is

And I’d really like a way to do the carousel below as well which I haven’t found yet.
Thanks
So far not finding anything that fits.
Any ideas anyone?
I’m going to want to be able to create hundreds of articles with this format. I see it as a group of posts I guess, maybe all assigned to one page, the main page? But each one would need to have the thumb carousel on it showing the correct post its on. I’m sure there is the perfect plug in out there for it but I’m not finding it yet.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Ok, I’ll dig around. I thought that perhaps I saw some conversation in other posts that some of those plugins have conflicts with the home page slider or something like that but I may have misunderstood. It seems a lot of people use the next gen one.
I just looked at that term in google and it looks like it was old technology that didn’t last. I don’t like the open in a new window as it turns out, you’re right, it’s not every elegant, but I see what I mean, is a solution.
Is there no way just for that page to let it be wider than the header of the site or increase the overall width of the main container to allow it?
I just can’t stand that sideways scroll problem.
Ok thanks. I thought I remembered something that was slightly more elegant like…a borderless window or something like that. I’ll dig around.
Thanks again 🙂
And is it better to do them as pages or posts? I would think pages…?
Oh yes thanks, done!
