Pager override demo
A walkable demo of the `pager` shortcode — override the prev/next destinations on a page-by-page basis.
A small workshop that demonstrates the pager shortcode
and the nopager front-matter flag. Each page exhibits a different navigation pattern. Click through end-to-end and watch the pager change at the bottom of each page.
What this demo covers:
- Page 1 — Baseline. No override; standard auto-pager.
- Page 2 — Override
next.Nextskips ahead, leavingPreviousauto. - Page 3 — Skipped page. The page that page 2 jumps over. Reachable via the sidebar; pager unchanged.
- Page 4 — Override
prev.Previouspoints back to where the user came from. - Page 5 — Override both, including an external URL and label fallback.
- Page 6 —
nopager: true. The page itself renders no pager; neighbouring pages skip over it in their own chain.
Open the sidebar to see every page in the demo. Use the bottom pager to navigate sequentially.
