    I can’t find the cunction to get number of pages in the post. I’m splitting it with <!–nextpage–>, but can’t count the pages.

    get_the_content() seems to get only the first page, and with get_the_content($pages) you can get one single page.

  • $page gives you the number you are on;
    $numpages gives you the total number.

    get_the_content() seems to get only the first page, and with get_the_content($pages) you can get one single page.

    (?) no mentioning of this in the codex:
    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/get_the_content

    it might work if you set the $page variable to global and give it a value of an existing ‘page’ and then use get_the_content()

    for instance:
    <?php global $page; $page=2; echo get_the_content(); ?>

    quite interesting application – let me/us know what you are using it for ??
