# Pagination

> Pages of a list split over several addresses — ?page=2, /page/3 — with their page number, rel=prev and rel=next, canonical and indexability, and the filters for what usually goes wrong from page 2 on. A site without paginated lists has no rows here, and the column set says so by being empty.

## On the screen

The picture is the Pagination column set on a crawl of getlooploop.com, whose lists are not paginated: the column set has no rows, and the line above the table reads **Showing 0 of 0**. On a site with paginated lists, each row is one page of a list.

Numbered parts of the screenshot:

1. **Filter.** **All (0)** here; the list also holds the pagination faults, each with its count.
2. **Showing 0 of 0.** No crawled page of getlooploop.com is part of a paginated list.
3. **Columns.** Address, Page, rel=prev, rel=next, Canonical and Indexability (scrolled off to the right).
4. **No rows.** No crawled page carries a page number or rel=prev / rel=next.

## Which pages are in it

An HTML page with status 200 is in the column set when it has a `rel="next"` or `rel="prev"` link, or its address carries a page number: a parameter `page`, `p`, `pg`, `paged`, `pagina`, `strona`, `seite`, `sayfa` or `offset` with a number, or a path ending in `/page/N` (also `/p/`, `/seite/`, `/pagina/`, `/strona/`, `/storinka/`).

## Columns and filters

| Column | What it shows |
| --- | --- |
| Page | The page number in the address, or empty when only rel=prev / rel=next mark it. |
| rel=prev, rel=next | The addresses those links name. |
| Canonical, Indexability | Where the page's canonical points, and whether it can be indexed. |

| Filter | Which pages |
| --- | --- |
| Page 2+ canonicalised to another URL | A later page whose canonical points elsewhere, usually to page 1, which hides the items only it lists. |
| Page 2+ is noindex | A later page with noindex in meta robots or X-Robots-Tag. |
| rel=next or prev points to a non-200 page | One of the two links leads to a crawled page that did not answer 200. |
| Next page does not point back with rel=prev | Page N names page N+1, which does not name page N back. |
| Page 2+ without rel=next/prev | A later page with neither link. |
| Pages of a paginated list | Every page 2 or later. Information, not a fault. |

## Pagination elsewhere in the app

Pages of one list share most of their text by design, so they are left out of [Cannibalization](https://www.getlooploop.com/gllmolfar/docs/cannibalization) and of near duplicates by text (see [Duplicates and canonicals](https://www.getlooploop.com/gllmolfar/docs/duplicates-canonicals)). Pages 2 and later are not embedded either, so they do not crowd the topics.
