[Pagination] is the process of splitting a list page into two or more pagers, where each pager contains a subset of the page collection and navigation links to other pagers.
The number of elements on each pager is determined by your [site configuration]. The default is `10`.
[site configuration]: /getting-started/configuration/#pagination
You can invoke pagination on the [home template], [section templates], [taxonomy templates], and [term templates]. Each of these receives a collection of regular pages in [context]. When you invoke the `Paginator` method, it paginates the page collection received in context.
[home template]: /templates/types/#home
[section templates]: /templates/types/#section
[taxonomy templates]: /templates/types/#taxonomy
[term templates]: /templates/types/#term
[context]: /getting-started/glossary/#context
{{< code file=layouts/_default/list.html >}}
{{ range .Paginator.Pages }}
<h2><a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">{{ .LinkTitle }}</a></h2>
{{ end }}
{{ template "_internal/pagination.html" . }}
{{< /code >}}
In the example above, the embedded pagination template creates navigation links between pagers.

Although simple to invoke, with the `Paginator` method you can neither filter nor sort the page collection. It acts upon the page collection received in context.
The [`Paginate`] method is more flexible, and strongly recommended.
[`paginate`]: /methods/page/paginate/

Please note that the results of pagination are cached. Once you have invoked either the `Paginator` or `Paginate` method, the paginated collection is immutable. Additional invocations of these methods will have no effect.
