How to hook additional pagination symbols into paginator

you can access the properties of the paginator, use whatever button you like and href them to the previous and next pages.

Is this what you mean?

https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/pagination#paginator-instance-methods

I have written guides here on pagination templates. You can write anyway you wish.

@JLRDW - Hi - thank you, I found this: https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/guides/paginator-another-episode that helped on the <a href , kept trying different routes that would give 404.

<div class="leftarrow"> 
    <a href="{{ $jobs->previousPageUrl() }}">❰</a>
</div> 

<div class="rightarrow">
                          <a href="{{ $jobs->nextPageUrl() }}">❱</a>    
</div>

@snapey , thank you for the link. I'd read those before but didn't understand them. I kept thinking $results - what $results, but now understand it's the $jobs the controller is passing..

moving ahead! Thank you

Glad the guide helped. I confess I did not write from scratch, just used out of box template and modified as needed.
