 * So I searched around and I found that you can insert “<!–nextpage–>” and create
   paginated posts in the default template.
 * However, that does not work for my template. Is there some coding I need to add
   in order for that function to work?
 * Thanks for helping!

 * Take a look in the default single.php file for the wp_link_pages function that
   provides the pagination. You will need similar coding in your template.
 * The Codex documentation is [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_link_pages).

 * Yes thank you vtxyzzy. For anyone else with this problem, here is the code to
   insert into the single.php file…
 *     ```
       <?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', 'after' => '</p>', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?>
       ```
   
 * Now if I can figure out how to insert different galleries into the paginated 
   posts…
