This a basic pagination example. It shows new 5 pnews items. We added a code to our template so we can view previous or next pages. It also show us how many pages we have.

#add this to views.py

from django.core.paginator import Paginator,InvalidPage, EmptyPage

def index(request, page=1):
 list = pnews.objects.all().order_by('-pdate')
 paginator = Paginator(list, 5)
 
 try:
  results = paginator.page(page)
 except(InvalidPage, EmptyPage):
  results = paginator.page(paginator.num_pages)
  
 return render_to_response('news/homepage.html', {"results":results})

#this to urls.py modify that for your urls
url(r'^news/(?P\d+)/$', 'cms.news.views.index', name='gmsnews'),

#this to your template so you can visit other pages
<div class="paginator-bottom">
    {%if results.has_previous%}
    <a href="{%url gmsnews results.previous_page_number%}">previous</a>
    {%endif%}
    <p>Page {{results.number}} of {{results.paginator.num_pages}}</p>
    {%if results.has_next%}
    <a href="{%url gmsnews results.next_page_number%}">next</a>
    {%endif%}
</div>

#note that you have to call pages like this
{% for pnews in results.object_list %}
#not like
{% for pnews in results %}
