# Formatting pagination

 * I’ve added the paginate option to my page using the paginate code:
 * `[ic_add_posts paginate='yes']`
 * While the code works, there are issues. All I have at the bottom of my page is
   a text link that says “Next” when technically the link should say “Previous” 
   because it’s referencing the older posts.
 * I’d also like to format the links a bit (Put them in the center of the page as
   opposed to the left, and have the links bold, etc. I’m not sure where to alter
   the CSS to achieve this.

 * I have a solution and also for the translate; add the following code to functions.
   php (child theme):
 *     ```
       // Post In Page change Next/Previous
       function posts_in_page_replace_prev_next( $links ){
           $links = str_replace( 'Next', 'Older Posts ←', $links );
           $links = str_replace( 'Previous', 'Newer Posts ←', $links );
           return $links;
       }
       add_filter( 'posts_in_page_paginate', 'posts_in_page_replace_prev_next' );
       ```
