Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I set the plugin’s options?

The plugin’s options are added to the built-in Reading settings page in WordPress.

Can I disable the plugin’s functionality for specific content?

Yes, the plugin adds a metabox (Classic Editor) and a sidebar component (Block Editor) to individual items in supported post types that allows the autopaging to be disabled on a per-post basis.

How can I add support for my custom post type?

Navigate to Settings > Reading in WP Admin to enable this plugin for your custom post type.

You can also use the filter autopaging_post_types to add support by appending your post type’s name to the array.
