Hi,

I’m looking to split my page into multiple (around 5) pages, and I’ve been trying to use the page-break system, and it doesn’t seem to work. I’m using a custom Cornerstone Page template in a wordpress page (No Container | Header, Footer). It’d come in real handy, so please let me know if there’s a way out.

Thanks,
Ankit

Thanks for writing in! Regretfully, at this time I am not entirely certain what it is you would like to accomplish based on the information given in your post. If you wouldn’t mind providing us with a little more clarification on what it is you’re wanting to do (a link to a similar example site would be very helpful, or perhaps some screenshots), we’ll be happy to provide you with a response once we have a better understanding of the situation.

The above is what I was trying to achieve. I have longer articles I’d like a page break for, but within Cornerstone I have a template that’s a little different because I obviously don’t use normal wordpress themes.

So I have a text box, but within the text editor in Cornerstone the page-breaks don’t reflect, even though I’ve actually implemented them. Is there a way to do that?

Hi there,

Page breaks will break the entire content, that includes your custom footer. Example,

custom header

content

<!--nextpage-->

review footer

So, you’ll see your review footer on next page since it’s also part of your created content. Using cornerstone or not, your review footer will be displayed on next page. Because it basically means “Display content from this forward to next page”.

About the placement of <!--nextpage--> in the cornerstone, it should be added within text element per section. It can’t have two break points in the same section. The reason is the layout structure, you can’t have these layout/shortcode because they will breaks into two parts.

[x_section]

<!--nextpage-->

[/x_section]

<div class="awesome">

<!--nextpage-->

</div>

They will become like this

[x_section]
Page 1 2

<div class="awesome">
Page 1 2

And it will break your site. This is a must even if you’re not using cornerstone (eg. standard editor), page break feature is made for plain contents. And if your content happens to have HTML structure, then you must not just place page break anywhere too, else, you’ll get the same result as above.

I edited your draft page and added a sample.

Thanks!

So then I can’t do it in a row? This can ONLY be done in a section? And if there’s a way to do t per row how does one do it? Because I only want to split the text in the left row into multiple pages. I’d like the rest of ‘me to stay the same.

Hi there,

It should be used in separate sections and I believe you can achieve the same thing instead of using in a Row.

Thanks!

[ankit_ojhaParticipant]

Separate sections. So wait. Do I have to repeat the same template thrice for this? I’m just trying to understand. Like Page Template, Page Break, Page Template?

[RadModerator]

Hi there,

It’s not related to any template, page breaks rules applies to all content regardless of templates. And you’ll have to repeat it on every page you wish the breaks be implemented.

Thanks.

[ankit_ojhaParticipant]

Okay, so I’ll rule page breaks out for the time being. Is there any way then to do page jumps within my Cornerstone template? That way I’ll divide my page into chapters and go with a mini-index/ToC on the Top

[Paul RModerator]

Hi,

Yes, you can add id to your chapters then link to it using the that id.

Here is good example

Hope that helps.
