If you are using codeigniter-3,
check pagination library, if you are using default pagination library,
You need to make changes in create_links() function inside that as per your requirements.
Customizable code is here :
// Render the pages
if ($this->display_pages !== FALSE)
{
// Write the digit links
for ($loop = $start - 1; $loop <= $end; $loop++)
{
$i = ($this->use_page_numbers) ? $loop : ($loop * $this->per_page) - $this->per_page;
$attributes = sprintf('%s %s="%d"', $this->_attributes, $this->data_page_attr, $loop);
if ($i >= $base_page)
{
if ($this->cur_page === $loop)
{
// Current page
$output .= $this->cur_tag_open.$loop.$this->cur_tag_close;
}
elseif ($i === $base_page)
{
// First page
$output .= $this->num_tag_open.'<a href="'.$first_url.'"'.$attributes.$this->_attr_rel('start').'>'
.$loop.'</a>'.$this->num_tag_close;
}
else
{
$append = $this->prefix.$i.$this->suffix;
$output .= $this->num_tag_open.'<a href="'.$base_url.$append.'"'.$attributes.'>'
.$loop.'</a>'.$this->num_tag_close;
}
}
}
}
// Render the "next" link
if ($this->next_link !== FALSE && $this->cur_page < $num_pages)
{
$i = ($this->use_page_numbers) ? $this->cur_page + 1 : $this->cur_page * $this->per_page;
$attributes = sprintf('%s %s="%d"', $this->_attributes, $this->data_page_attr, $this->cur_page + 1);
$output .= $this->next_tag_open.'<a href="'.$base_url.$this->prefix.$i.$this->suffix.'"'.$attributes
.$this->_attr_rel('next').'>'.$this->next_link.'</a>'.$this->next_tag_close;
}
// Render the "Last" link
if ($this->last_link !== FALSE && ($this->cur_page + $this->num_links + ! $this->num_links) < $num_pages)
{
$i = ($this->use_page_numbers) ? $num_pages : ($num_pages * $this->per_page) - $this->per_page;
$attributes = sprintf('%s %s="%d"', $this->_attributes, $this->data_page_attr, $num_pages);
$output .= $this->last_tag_open.'<a href="'.$base_url.$this->prefix.$i.$this->suffix.'"'.$attributes.'>'
.$this->last_link.'</a>'.$this->last_tag_close;
}
