PageBreaker

Description¶

PageBreaker is a plugin, than allows you to show big texts splitted to pages. It is searching for special string in text (<!- splitter ->) and splitting text on it. Also included pagination and friendly urls for pages of text.

You can manually enter splitters in text or use plugin for TinyMCE for it (see below).

Splitted page must be not cacheable. Otherwise you will see the same text on changing pages.
