Page Number Navigation For Blogger



Page Navigation is nothing but converting all your posts into single book, adding number to each page and printing all page numbers to home page of your blogger blog.

You can see demo of this hack at the bottom of this blog.

Thanks to Mohhamed Rias for this beautiful hack. You can add page Navigation in your blog in two methods.
(1). Customizing of your template (Hard to implement for beginners)
(2). Adding some lines of code into page element (HTML/Javascript - easy one)

Here i will explain second one in easy steps.

Step needs to Implement Page Navigation

Step 1. Login to Blogger Dashboard

Step 2. Go to Layout

Step 3. Click on 'Add Page Element' or 'Add a Gadget'

Step 4. Popup window will be opened. Select HTML/Javascript

Step 5. Now add the following code into the window

<style>
.showpageArea {padding: 0 2px;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px;
}
.showpageArea a {border: 1px solid #505050;
color: #000000;font-weight:normal;
padding: 3px 6px !important;
padding: 1px 4px ;margin:0px 4px;
text-decoration: none;
}
.showpageArea a:hover {
font-size:11px;
border: 1px solid #333;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}

.showpageNum a {border: 1px solid #505050;
color: #000000;font-weight:normal;
padding: 3px 6px !important;
padding: 1px 4px ;margin:0px 4px;
text-decoration: none;


}
.showpageNum a:hover {
font-size:11px;
border: 1px solid #333;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFFFFF;

}
.showpagePoint {font-size:11px;
padding: 2px 4px 2px 4px;
margin: 2px;
font-weight: bold;
border: 1px solid #333;
color: #fff;
background-color: #000000;


}

.showpage a:hover {font-size:11px;
border: 1px solid #333;
color: #000000;
background-color: #FFFFFF;

}
.showpageNum a:link,.showpage a:link {
font-size:11px;
padding: 2px 4px 2px 4px;
margin: 2px;
text-decoration: none;
border: 1px solid #0066cc;
color: #0066cc;
background-color: #FFFFFF;}

.showpageNum a:hover {font-size:11px;

<script src="/feeds/posts/summary?alt=json-in-script&callback=showpageCount&max-results=99999" type="text/javascript"></script>
<div style="text-align:right;font-size:10px;color:000000;margin-top:15px;display:none;"> <a href="http://blogger-godown.blogspot.com/search/label/Widget">Blogger Widgets</a> | <a href="http://rias-techno-wizard.blogspot.com/2008/07/page-navigation-menu-widget-for-blogger.html">Blogger Accessories</a> </div>

Step 6. Now Save the page element and move that page element to Blog Posts footer as show in following screenshot.




Step 7. Save Setting and see you blog.. It should show page navigation at the bottom of your blog.
