Dividing and formatting long articles in Joomla!

Sometimes when creating Joomla! site there may be articles or pages with long content. However, we may be able to separate them into logical sections.

In Joomla!, we utilize page breaks between such logical sections, and we can configure the page break plug-in to modify its appearance and functionality.

Here are the steps to insert multiple page breaks into an article and modify the presentation of these page breaks.
1) To insert a page break inside an article, press the page break button at the bottom of the editor.
2) Repeat insertion of page breaks in the article where required, as shown in the below screenshot.

In the above screenshot, each of the horizontal line represents a page break I inserted in the article.
3) Next, go to Extensions –> Plug-in manager, and select the plug-in “Content – Pagebreak”, as shown below.

4) Within the page break plug-in, we can modify the basic options to fine tune the page break functionality and appearance. One of the options is the presentation style, and setting the presentation style to “Sliders” can give the following effect.

Experiment with other options on the page and see its effects on your Joomla! site.
