How to Add Pagination on Tumblr.

Click on the customize theme button >> Edit HTML
Look for the tag {Description} within your theme with Ctrl+F and once found paste the following code snippet right after it: (NOTE: You can indeed find more than one of these tags along your theme, hopwever, just one of theme is the one that is related to your description)

<br/>
<center>  <center>{block:NextPage}<a href="{NextPage}"><font size="20">&#171;</font></a>{/block:NextPage}
  {block:PreviousPage}  <a href="{PreviousPage}"><font size="20">&#187;</font></a>{/block:PreviousPage}<br>
  {block:PermalinkPagination}
  {block:NextPost}<a href="{NextPost}"><font size="20">&#171;</font></a>{/block:NextPost}
  {block:PreviousPost}  <a href="{PreviousPost}"><font size="20">&#187;</font></a>{/block:PreviousPost}
  {/block:PermalinkPagination}<p>
</center>

Well, I just started tumblr yesterday, and I feel pretty accomplished! I’ve incorporated the Scrolling Title, the Infinite Scrolling, the Image Header/Title, and several other tweaks that I managed to do on my own. I’ll happily admit that it was this website that helped me accomplish that much!

I’ve taken a java course before, but pretty much failed at that, so I feel pretty successful. heh.

Anyway, what is a “Pagination?” Also, I think you could further help all the tumblrers by including pictures to illustrate the instructions/actions- many of the processes are naturally pretty confusing!

Thank you so much! You techie guys/gals are awesome.
