# Introduction
A pagination bar provides a way for your users to control the [paging of
 a dataset](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-reference/$w/dataset/introduction.md#dataset-pages). Elements that are connected to the
 same dataset as the pagination bar are affected when the user
 interacts with the pagination bar.

 For example, suppose you have a repeater connected to a dataset and that dataset
 is set to have a page size of 5. When the page loads, the repeater shows
 the first 5 items from the dataset. If a user clicks on the next page button
 of a pagination bar connected to the same dataset as the repeater,
 the repeater then shows items 6-10 from the dataset.

 You can also use a pagination bar without connecting it to a dataset.
 When doing so, you have to provide the pagination logic that runs when
 a user interacts with the pagination bar.
