how to implement URL change if scroll down or up with infinite scroll at the site....
Hi there,
At this point, it isn't possible. I'll see if it's something we can implement an option for in the future.
Ok.
Is it having some negative effect as per google?
Just noticed home page is cached in google without pagination... that means no internal links for further pages of the site :-(
Stopping infinite scroll.
The URLs (/page/2 etc..) still exist on your site - infinite scroll is simply a different UI for the main page.
Archives have something like this in the <head> section of your site to tell search engines there is a second page:
<link rel="next" href="https://your-website.com/blog/page/2/" />
Thanks Tom, that means there is no bad effect of using infinite scroll..... if it is sure, i would not de-activate that.... just need affirmation from an expert like you....
I'm not an SEO expert, so I can't say for sure. However, the pages themselves exist (/page/2, /page/3 and so on), and search engines should be able to find them, especially if you have a sitemap.
Thankyou very much, I'll dig further :-)
No problem :)
Thanks Tom.

Hello Tom,
I am also interested on the same. Change in "page URL" and "page title" will be a great option for GP infinite scroll.
When I have searched online, I have found one jQuery plugin. You may check it take some reference to implement the same in the GP theme.

Hi there,
GP Premium 1.11.0 has a filter for all of the infinite scroll options, so you'll be able to customize the options with what they have available here: https://infinite-scroll.com/
That's great!
