How you can split up your blogger post into different pages just like in blogs like Mashable and other WordPress blogs.
To create engagement and to divide the posts in section this method can be very useful. Also if you have a very long post you may use this method so the long post will now be splited into many shorts pages.

Divide Blogger post into differernt Pages[/caption]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
There are some points you need to note as they are very crucial for this particular splitting.
- 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.
- You may have got the idea of the code pattern and I guess one can add more pages if they want (here the tut is given only for 3 pages) in case you have any problem drop a comment below and I will try to help you as soon as possible.
Thats it, you are done now. Now you and your visitors can see long posts divided just as you would see in WP posts.
Would love to here from you...
