How to Use the Page Break Block in WordPress?
We will not use any third-party plugin to use the page break block. We will use the core Page Break block offered by WordPress. Follow the steps below and master all its functionalities.
Go to your post or page where you want to add this block.
Now, hit the “+” icon (Add Block) (1), tipo "Page Break" en la casilla de búsqueda (2)y haga clic en el botón Page Break bloque (3).

Try to add the block in between your content. So, decide first where you want to add the block.

The more page break blocks you add, the more page numbers you create. As I have added only a single-page break block, it is showing 2 pages.

After adding the block, make sure to check it in the preview. Then, you must save or publish your post or page.

No customization is included in the block. So you cannot customize it.
