Pagination

Understand Bootstrap pagination patterns and build paging controls that fit common list and table layouts.

Pagination

Pagination helps users move between pages of content. In Bootstrap, it’s built from a pagination container plus page items and links.

Pagination example

Pagination is highlighted. Pagination provides navigable links across multiple pages of content, with clear active and disabled states.

Orient yourself in Properties panel

Start with the wider context in the Properties panel so the next control makes sense in the full workflow. In the next step, you will focus on Pagination: Size and see how it fits into this area.

Pagination: Size

Use Size to choose a larger or smaller pagination control. Keep it consistent with surrounding UI density. This step matters because Pagination: Size is part of Selection Panels Properties Paginationsize, and understanding that context makes the next action easier to repeat in your own project.

Page items hold state (active/disabled). Page links hold the clickable label and destination.

Active page item

Active and disabled states live on the page item. Let’s review the current page state. This step matters because Active page item is part of Design View, and understanding that context makes the next action easier to repeat in your own project.

Page item: Active

Use Active for the current page. This step matters because Page item: Active is part of Selection Panels Properties Pageitemactive, and understanding that context makes the next action easier to repeat in your own project.

Page item: Disabled

Use Disabled for items that aren’t available (for example, “Previous” on the first page). This step matters because Page item: Disabled is part of Selection Panels Properties Pageitemdisabled, and understanding that context makes the next action easier to repeat in your own project.

Page links control the visible label and navigation destination. This step matters because Page link is part of Design View, and understanding that context makes the next action easier to repeat in your own project.

Use Text to change the label and Link to choose a route or file. Keep numeric pagination consistent (1, 2, 3 …) and use words/icons for previous/next.
