{
$this->load->library('pagination');
$config['base_url'] = 'http://pakainfo.com/index.php/test/page/';
$config['total_rows'] = 200;
$config['per_page'] = 20;

Pagination Controller Code:-

File Name-[MemberController.php]

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MemberController extends CI_Controller 
{
public function membersdatalist($start = 0)
{
$this->load->model('MemberModel');
$this->load->helper('country_helper');
$post_name = $this->input->get('search');
$model = $this->load->model('MemberModel');
$config['base_url'] = base_url().'index.php/memberController/membersdatalist/';
$totalRows = $this->MemberModel->searchMember($post_name);
$data['data'] = $this->MemberModel->searchMember($post_name, $start);		
$config['total_rows'] = count($totalRows);		
$config['per_page'] = 15; //data per page you want to display.
$this->load->library('pagination');
$this->pagination->initialize($config); 
$this->load->view('common/header_view');
$this->load->view('search_result_view',$data);
$this->load->view('common/footer_view');
} 
}
?>

Pagination model Code:-

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MemberModel extends CI_Model 
{
public function searchMember($post_name, $start=0) 
{
$this->db->select('*');
$this->db->from(MEMBERS);
$this->db->like('name', $post_name);
$this->db->or_like('uname', $post_name);
$this->db->or_like('email', $post_name);		 
$this->db->limit(10, $start);
$query = $this->db->get();
$result = $query->result_array();
return $result;
}      
}
?>
