2. Now go to Extra Option tab and enable the AJAX Search toggle.
3. Then go to the Load More/Lazy Load tab and select Pagination from the Loading Options dropdown.
From the Counter Enable toggle, you can show or hide the pagination numbers.
From the Arrow Navigation toggle, you can show or hide the next and previous buttons for the pagination.
You can edit the button text, add icons and position the button as well.
4. After that go to the Results Area tab, and from the Posts Per Page section you can set how many items will load in the initial search result.
Depending on the total number of items and the number set in the Posts Per Page field, you’ll see a pagination when you make a search which you can use to see all the results.
Note: To have pagination, you must set a lower number in the Posts Per Page field than the total number of search result items.
