Did you actually enable paging for each of the input formats? For example. going to admin >> input formats >> filtered HTML and then clicking the box to enable paging? I didn't see that step explicitly pointed out in the instructions and it caused me problems.

Checked it out on fresh Drupal 5.1 installation with latest 5.x paging version. It all works well as Heine has documented steps in the link in the first post above. It might be your specific case, or you are still missing at something..

Few steps to make sure, all answers are up there.

1. Enable the module
2. Admin -> Site Configuration -> Paging: Enable the node types what you need.
3. Admin -> Site Configuration -> Input Formats: Select format name, click configure, and check "paging"

If the paging still doesn't work, use phpmyadmin and do the following carefully.

1. On phpmyadmin, click on "cache_page" table on left side (If you have a prefix, prefix_cache_page.
2. And click on "SQL" and insert the following SQL statement into the textfield to delete the contents: delete FROM `cache_page` (or if you have a prefix on your tables, insert 'yourownprefix_cache_page' instead.)
3. Then, it should work.

Make sure you test it on localhost (testing site) if you have. I hope you could do it like me.

There is a simple solution! Paging works for me if (and only if) I insert the following string into the text to be paged:

<!--paging_filter-->

I think this should have been done by the hook filter function called as "paging_filter", but the branching case 'process' has been never executed in my test.

My installation has drupal-5.1.tar.gz and paging-5.x-1.0.tar.gz

My previous post is (at least partly) misleading! The program code is correct, the user (namely me) shoud be corrected instead! :-)

It happened that I missed the following (nontrivial) information:

Don't forget to activate the filter through:
administer > input formats > configure > check the Paging filter.

Sorry for the previous misinformation!

I found I had the same problem, not getting paging to work. Also had a problem with the

function in the stories to split the teaser where I wanted. Didn't have cache on so knew it wasn't that, checked the database just in case and the table was empty.

Anyway to cut a long story short the issue was that I have the tinymce editor enabled which takes the < and turns it into a &lt tag and also for the > being turned into a &gt tag. The end result being that the text was being displayed as literal text rather than the intended script.

The solution if this is the problem you are getting is to edit the HTML of the page in tinymce and change the &lt & &gt into the correct < > tags

tinamama, if you use any editor like graemem stated above, it should be clear then. in any case, if you are unable to follow up further, this issue will be assumed fixed and will be closed.
