In Bludit, least right now, the only thing <!-- pagebreak --> does is act as an excerpt if you don't use a page/post description.

I had to write a plugin (later built into my theme I wrote, which is what kbeezie.com is on) to do actual pagenation for post and pages.

So it won't work like it does on Wordpress.

Edit #2:
They used to have it (7 years ago), but the download goes to a 404 not found page, hence why I wrote it in myself.

Hi HowardB,

I can't download the Andy theme to help you further - there's a 404 error. This pagebreak feature depends on the theme, see documentation. Behind the scene, the theme has to use functions such as $page->contentBreak(); in combination with $page->readMore() to render the content splitting. It's usually used on Pages (such as blog posts) and not in Static pages, maybe that's why you don't see it working. If you can share the theme as a zip file some of us may be able to help you editing it.

If you are talking about next and back links for blog posts list, same thing, it depends on the theme. The Paginator class has at lots of useful functions to help build a pagination component. In Simple.css theme I dedicated an entire page for pagination navigation, if it helps.

You can find the GitHub repository of the theme still at

https://github.com/elpak/bludit-themes

If the theme still works we can transfer it to the Bludit theme repository. Otherwise I will delete it from the theme plattform.

Though I don't think they're looking for an excerpt extraction but to have actual pages in content. The way it's been rewritten is that it only breaks the page once (for except, then readmore for the rest of the post).

It currently won't do like how I have set up on my site at kbeezie.com where if you go into either posting or static page, can use multiple page breaks to have several pages show up at the bottom. So just a single break isn't really useful in this context (especially since we already have a "description" field now for postings).

Thanks Edi, it looks like the theme still works.

And thanks kbeezie for your input.

@HowardB if you're trying to break content in static pages in multiple sub-pages I think you should consider using a plugin like https://plugins.bludit.com/plugin/simple-pagination or the one kbeezie wrote if they are OK for sharing. As far as I'm aware, it's not implemented as-is in Andy theme.
