 You'll also need to include some Liquid and HTML to properly use the paginator, which you can find in the **Layouts** section under [Home Page]({{ "/docs/layouts/#home-page" | absolute_url }}).
 
-**Please note:** [Jekyll's pagination](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/pagination/) may have unexpected results when used on pages other than the home page eg. `<site domain>/blog/index.html`.
+The paginator only works on files with name `index.html`. To use pagination in a subfolder --- for example `/recent/`, create `/recent/index.html` and set the `paginate_path` in `_config.yml` to this:
+
+```yaml
+paginate_path: /recent/page:num/
+```
+
+**Please note:** When using Jekyll's default [pagination plugin](http://jekyllrb.com/docs/pagination/) `paginator.posts` can only be called once. If you're looking for something more powerful that can paginate category, tag, and collection pages I suggest [**jekyll-paginate-v2**](https://github.com/sverrirs/jekyll-paginate-v2).

 ### Taxonomy Archive
 
-If you have the luxury of using Jekyll plugins the creation of category and tag archives is greatly simplified. Enable support for the [`jekyll-archives`](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll-archives) plugin with a few `_config.yml` settings as noted in the [**Configuration**]({{ "/docs/configuration/#archive-settings" | absolute_url }}) section.

+If you're not using the `jekyll-archives` plugin then you need to create archive pages yourself. Sample taxonomy archives can be found by grabbing the HTML sources below and adding to your site.
+
+| Name                 | HTML Source |
+| -------------------- | --- |
+| [Categories Archive](https://mmistakes.github.io/minimal-mistakes/categories/) | [category-archive.html](https://github.com/mmistakes/minimal-mistakes/blob/master/docs/_pages/category-archive.html) |

+
+The **Tags Archive** page that responds to urls such as `/tags/#tips` looks something like this:
+
+```html
+---
+layout: archive
+permalink: /tags/
+title: "Posts by Tags"
+author_profile: true
+---
+
+{% include group-by-array collection=site.posts field="tags" %}
+
+{% for tag in group_names %}
+  {% assign posts = group_items[forloop.index0] %}
+  <h2 id="{{ tag | slugify }}" class="archive__subtitle">{{ tag }}</h2>
+  {% for post in posts %}
+    {% include archive-single.html %}
+  {% endfor %}
+{% endfor %}
+```

 ### Home Page
 
 A derivative archive page layout to be used as a simple home page. It is built to show a paginated list of recent posts based off of the [pagination settings]({{ "/docs/configuration/#paginate" | absolute_url }}) in `_config.yml`.
