Getting an articles_paginator in template different to index.html

Question

I created my simple site using pelican. I have a page for index that's not listing the articles in my blog, so, pagination is not required there.

I have a different url, blog.html to list my articles. But, from there, I cannot access the articles_paginator.

In Pelican, how can I create a page different to index.html with access to the articles_paginator?

I'm using Pelican 4.9.1.

See DIRECT_TEMPLATES and PAGINATED_TEMPLATES documentation. In your case, it would be:

DIRECT_TEMPLATES = ['index', 'authors', 'categories', 'tags', 'archives', 'blog']
PAGINATED_TEMPLATES = {'index': None, 'tag': None, 'category': None, 'author': None, 'blog': None}

or this could be also relevant.

Thank you very much for your kind response. I almost had it as you indicate it. The problem I'm actually having is having access to the paginator in the template.

Some templates I've checked has a reference in the templates named articles_paginator. For example: https://github.com/getpelican/pelican/blob/main/pelican/themes/simple/templates/pagination.html

But, following that pattern results in a articles_paginator not defined; failing the generation of the site. What would be the name of the paginator in the blog page?
