Examples
Basic page links
Render page destinations as links and mark the current page with `isActive`.
basic-page-links.tsx
import { Pagination, PaginationContent, PaginationItem, PaginationLink } from "@/components/ui/pagination"export function PageLinks() { return ( <Pagination> <PaginationContent> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=1">1</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=2" isActive>2</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=3">3</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> </PaginationContent> </Pagination> )}Previous and next controls
Add labeled navigation links around page numbers.
previous-and-next-controls.tsx
import { Pagination, PaginationContent, PaginationItem, PaginationLink, PaginationNext, PaginationPrevious } from "@/components/ui/pagination"export function PageNavigation() { return ( <Pagination> <PaginationContent> <PaginationItem><PaginationPrevious href="?page=1" /></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=2" isActive>2</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationNext href="?page=3" /></PaginationItem> </PaginationContent> </Pagination> )}Truncated page range
Use the ellipsis to represent omitted pages in a long range.
truncated-page-range.tsx
import { Pagination, PaginationContent, PaginationEllipsis, PaginationItem, PaginationLink } from "@/components/ui/pagination"export function TruncatedPageRange() { return ( <Pagination> <PaginationContent> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=1">1</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=2">2</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationEllipsis /></PaginationItem> <PaginationItem><PaginationLink href="?page=10" isActive>10</PaginationLink></PaginationItem> </PaginationContent> </Pagination> )}API reference
PropTypeDefaultDescription
PaginationReact.ComponentProps<"nav">—Accepts native `<nav>` props, including `className` and children. Renders a navigation landmark with `role="navigation"` and `aria-label="pagination"`; the built-in role and label are set before remaining props are spread.
PaginationContentReact.ComponentProps<"ul">—Accepts native `<ul>` props, including `className` and children.
PaginationItemReact.ComponentProps<"li">—Accepts native `<li>` props and renders its children inside a list item.
PaginationLink{ isActive?: boolean } & Pick<React.ComponentProps<typeof Button>, "size"> & React.ComponentProps<"a">—Accepts anchor props, the shared Button `size` prop, and optional `isActive`. Uses the default Button variant when active and ghost otherwise; active links receive `aria-current="page"`. The size defaults to `"icon"`.
PaginationPreviousReact.ComponentProps<typeof PaginationLink> & { text?: string }—Accepts PaginationLink props and optional `text`, which defaults to `"Previous"`. Sets the accessible label to `Go to previous page` and the Button size to `default`; caller props are spread afterward.
PaginationNextReact.ComponentProps<typeof PaginationLink> & { text?: string }—Accepts PaginationLink props and optional `text`, which defaults to `"Next"`. Sets the accessible label to `Go to next page` and the Button size to `default`; caller props are spread afterward.
PaginationEllipsisReact.ComponentProps<"span">—Accepts native `<span>` props, including `className`. Renders an ellipsis icon and visually hidden “More pages” text.
Accessibility
- The root renders a navigation landmark labeled `pagination`; consider whether that generic label is sufficiently distinct if a page contains multiple navigation landmarks.
- Use meaningful `href` destinations for page links so they work as links and remain available to assistive technology.
- Set `isActive` on the current page; the link then receives `aria-current="page"`.
- Previous and Next controls have explicit accessible labels. Their visible text is hidden below the `sm` breakpoint, while the labels remain available to assistive technology.
- The ellipsis is marked `aria-hidden`; its nested “More pages” text is screen-reader-only and therefore also hidden from assistive technology.
