    I’ve been searching for an answer to this for a while, without any luck: Is it possible to use infinite scrolling for a single (paginated) page?

    I’m using <!--nextpage--> to split up a page’s content into multiple pages and I want to setup infinite scrolling, instead of displaying the pagination links.

    I’m afraid not. Infinite scroll is meant for displaying posts, not for pagination. Plus, if you wanted to use infinite scrolling to show the whole post instead of pagination, you could just make a normal post. ??

    I hope that clarifies things!

    Thanks for the reply. My pages contain galleries with hundreds of images, so in order to improve loading times, I split them up. I want the next batch of images to load when the user reaches the end of the page.

    Still, loading the next page of an archive should be similar to loading the next page of a post? I have some PHP knowledge, can you maybe give me any pointers on where I could start implementing this?

    We do have a pretty extensive support document for Infinite Scroll that you could look through:

    Also, in this post from Otto, you might be able to modify the container information required to load your images instead of the pagination?

    I am not an expert with Infinite Scroll, so I’m not sure how or if that could be done – but if you’re not afraid to experiment (maybe on a test site), it might just work?
