# Posts Paged Category?

 * Right, is there a tag that tells the loop you’re viewing a second or subsequent
   page of posts?
 * Not sure how to word the question, but basically, I want my index.php to show
   my posts, but if I click on ‘next page’, i want the display to go to excerpts
   instead of full post. I thought it may work using the is_home tag, but it doesn’t,
   so I’m wondering is there a tag that’ll do this, or not!
 * Thanks guys

 * Try is_paged()
 * Just in case: not is_page() — is_paged()
