    Hi everyone!

    I’m looking for a solution to a problem i’ve came across. I have a ton of data (in table form) that I’m going to put on my website. This is all going to be on a static, regular wordpress page…

    Given the nature of this data, it is necessary to keep it in the same page, but it’s a whole lot of information, and it would be nice to be able to split it up (e.g. the <!--nextpage--> quicktag), without creating X more pages in order to achieve this.
    I know that this is not the main WP static pages goal, but it would be nice to know if there’s any sort of plugin or “hack” that anyone ever used before! 🙂

    Thanks dudes and dudettes!

    You could try structuring it like a wikipedia page – you would have a table of contents box at the top of the page, which contains links to subsections further down on the same page.

    Try http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hackadelic-table-of-content-boxes/

    There’s a guide at http://hackadelic.com/solutions/wordpress/seo-table-of-contents

    It will take a bit of work though.

    That can work! Thanks Gary! 🙂

    And thanks for the Wikipedia tip, i’ll google it and will see what pop’s up 🙂

    EDIT: I’ve looked at the plugin more in depth, and it looks like it just creates a set of href hooks. Altough usefull, it still doesn’t sort the massive load time the data will generate, and the almost infinite page height! :S But thanks anyway!

    You can also code the content box yourself, if the plugin doesn’t work. This post explains how to create internal anchors /how to use #etc – http://yoast.com/jump-to-snippets-optimization/

    The loading time will be an issue unless you decide to paginate.

    Yeah.. My inicial idea was to have something like wp-pagenavi. But it seems that it just doesn’t work in static pages (e.g., my case).

    I’ll keep on googling… 😐 Thanks!
