Hi! what about making a pagination option? thanks, Enrico.

Regarding Pagination. It is on the list of projects.

Unfortunately, it's not something that can just be put together and put in. The query functionality between APL and WP has seen a rough road in the past, and pushed some servers to their limits. Now days, APL does provide optimizations with query args, but the more complex a filter becomes, the more those optimizations loose their effect.

It is even possible Pagination might have to be Pushed Back until an increased advanced method for query strings is developed. Which may end up completely replacing the WP_Query Class. In this case, it would be better not to have a feature, than to risk breaking a multitude of websites. At least until a solution has been provided before hand.

Regardless, I still have some concepts I want to explore that may provide the intended functionalities. At the moment, Pagination is in the 0.5 Milestone.

I also have another more recent branch that I will be rebasing into this repo soon
