Custom Styles

react-responsive-pagination is an easy to use React responsive pagination component which always outputs the right number of pagination elements for the width available, no guesswork needed

Easy to style, just include the necessary css in your project (see examples below)

Installation

Install react-responsive-pagination from npm:

npm install react-responsive-pagination

Quick Start

MyApp.js
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import Pagination from 'react-responsive-pagination';
import './pagination.css'; // see pagination.css examples below


export default function MyApp() {
  const totalPages = 120;
  const [currentPage, setCurrentPage] = useState(1);


  function handlePageChange(page) {
    setCurrentPage(page);
    // ... do something with `page`
  }


  return (
    <Pagination
      total={totalPages}
      current={currentPage}
      onPageChange={page => handlePageChange(page)}
    />
  );
}

See below for pagination.css examples

Custom Styling

To create custom styles for react-responsive-pagination simply include some custom css - the four examples below should provide a good starting point. For a full list of suggested css selectors to target, see Selector Reference

Using Bootstrap 4.x? No problem, see the Bootstrap Pagination guide.

Example 1 - Basic Pagination

For a full list of suggested css selectors to target, see Selector Reference

Example 2 - Classic Pagination

For a full list of suggested css selectors to target, see the next section

Selector Reference

SelectorNotes
.paginationPagination container (<ul> tag)
The recommended style is a horizontal flexbox (see examples above)
.page-itemItem containers (<li> tags)
Styles may not be needed for this selector, see selector below
.page-item .page-linkItem elements (<a> or <span> tags)
Includes links and static labels. Style as a block element with appropriate font, margin and border (see examples above)
.page-item a.page-linkClickable item elements (<a> tags)
Page links or the next/previous buttons (if they are clickable)
.page-item.active .page-linkActive page link (<a> tags)
CSS should highlight this element (see examples above)
.page-item.disabled .page-linkDisabled items (<span> tags)
Includes '...' or disabled nav buttons. CSS should show grey out these elements (see examples above)
.sr-onlyScreen reader only elements (<span> tags)
Required for accessibility. These elements not be visible, use CSS to visually hide these elements in a way screen readers can still read the text (see below for an example)

Screen reader only (.sr-only) styles

To enhance Accessibility, the .sr-only style is used to visually hide content meant only for users using screen readers. Typically css for this selector would be:

.sr-only {
  position: absolute;
  width: 1px;
  height: 1px;
  padding: 0;
  margin: -1px;
  overflow: hidden;
  clip: rect(0, 0, 0, 0);
  white-space: nowrap;
  border: 0;
}

CSS-TRICKS - Inclusively Hidden

(this css included in the css examples above)

Overriding default classNames

If needed, you can easily override the default class names by adding the following props:

className PropDescription
classNameClass name for the top level <ul> container
pageItemClassNameClass name for all the <li> elements
pageLinkClassNameClass name for <a> or <span> child elements within an <li> element
activeItemClassNameAppended to <li> class name for the active element
disabledItemClassNameAppended to <li> class name for non-clickable elements (disabled nav buttons and the break/ellipsis)
srOnlyClassNameClass for screen reader only content (which should be visually hidden). See an example of typical .sr-only css

Example - overriding default class names

<Pagination
  className="my-pagination"
  pageItemClassName="my-item"
  pageLinkClassName="my-link"
  activeItemClassName="my-active"
  disabledItemClassName="my-disabled"
  // ...other props
/>


// would create html like this


<ul class="my-pagination">
    <li class="my-item my-disabled">
        <span class="my-link">
            <span aria-hidden="true">«</span>
            <span class="sr-only">Previous</span>
        </span>
    </li>
    <li class="my-item my-active">
        <a class="my-link" href="#" aria-label="(current)">
            <span aria-hidden="true">1</span>
            <span class="sr-only">(current)</span>
        </a>
    </li>
    <li class="my-item">
        <a class="my-link" href="#">2</a>
    </li>
    <!-- ... more elements -->
</ul>

Other Options

Previous and Next Labels

Change the default labels for the previous and next buttons by setting the previousLabel and nextLabel props:

Example - Text labels

<Pagination ... previousLabel="Previous" nextLabel="Next" />
