?paged value of a specific post

Try something like $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;

thanks for the fast response.
if I copy this a add “echo $paged” I get 1 for all post.
I think the reason is, that ‘paged’ is not in the url of the permalink. am I right? other tips?

check this:
https://mobile.moontools.ch/trivia-moon-tool_theme/?paged=3
and the permalink of first post on this page:
https://mobile.moontools.ch/trivia-moon-tool_theme/?p=1148
so the result on should be 3

am I right?

Are you inside or outside the Loop?

outside. on the single post webpage.

What about using is_paged()?

no result. can a single post be paged? I think no.

Yes – it can.

ok, didn’t know this. but it’s the wrong information for me, see https://mobile.moontools.ch/trivia-moon-tool_theme/?p=1148 and I should have the value 3.
another solution?

That’s doesn’t look like a theme template file. You cannot just use any HTML & PHP in a theme.

this is just for testing.
my goal is that any permalink goes to a page which shows the post itself (permalink), older and newer post like on my overview page (e.g. https://mobile.moontools.ch/trivia-moon-tool_theme/?paged=3 )
I thought the simplest thing is to get the right ‘paged’-value so I can use the existing overview template.
what do you think would be the best solution?

this is just for testing.

You cannot do any testing with a fully functional single.php template file.

anyway. I need still the “paged”-value.
