What it does
Long articles can be hard to read on a single scrolling page, especially guides, listicles and in-depth reports. This plugin divides a post into smaller sections so readers can work through it one part at a time. You pick a heading level from H1 to H6, and the plugin uses those headings as the break points. That means your existing post structure decides where each page starts, with no need to rewrite content or insert manual page breaks.
You can choose how content loads: all at once, page by page with normal pagination, or page by page with Ajax so readers move forward without refreshing the browser. More than 20 layout templates give you different pagination designs to match your theme. The plugin works with the Gutenberg editor, the layouts are responsive and retina ready, and the settings are handled through a straightforward interface that suits blog owners as well as developers.
Best for
- Bloggers who publish long guides and tutorials
- News and magazine sites with lengthy articles
- Content-heavy sites wanting multi-page post navigation

Questions about Epic Split Post
Do I have to add page breaks to every post by hand?
No. You select a heading tag from H1 to H6, and the plugin splits the post at those headings automatically. Posts that already use clear headings can be divided into pages without editing their content.
Can I turn off Ajax and use regular pagination instead?
Yes. There are three content load options: load everything at once, load each page with normal pagination, or load each page with Ajax pagination. You can pick whichever suits your site and readers.
Will the pagination match my theme's design?
The plugin includes more than 20 layout templates for the pagination, so you can choose a design that fits your site. The layouts are also responsive and retina ready, so they display well across devices.
Does it work with the block editor?
Yes. The plugin is compatible with the Gutenberg editor, so you can write and structure your posts in the block editor and let the plugin handle splitting them into pages.
