  Hi there, I would like to put a numbered page navigation at the bottom of my blog. Does Word press support this?

  thanks,

  Patience

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If I understand correctly, you’re referring to the blog navigation that would replace the “Older Posts” link shown here:

  Is that correct? I’m afraid that won’t be possible as the navigation is theme-dependent. The vast majority of themes I’ve checked use the “Older Posts” style of navigation. Would you be open to changing themes if we found one that used pagination instead?

  Yes. I would change themes if I could use page navigation.

  Turns out this was a bit more difficult to find than I had previously imagined! It looks like Twenty Fifteen offers page numbers when infinite scroll is turned off:

  Would that work? You can see the demo here:

  Nope! You’ll just need to disable infinite scrolling in Settings > Reading

  Infinite Scroll

  Let me know if you have any more questions!
