            </div>
            <hr>
            <div class="post post-preview">
                <a href="3.html">
                    <h2 class="post-title">
                        About this blog
                    </h2>
                </a>
                <p class="post-meta">Posted by <a href="about.html">KP</a> on September 18, 2016</p>
            </div>
            <hr>
        </div>
         <div id="pagination">
            <a href="2.html">1</a>
            <a href="3.html" class="next">2</a>
        </div>

and my javascript is this:

 var ias = jQuery.ias({ container:  '#posts', item: '.post', pagination: '#pagination', next:'.next ' });

when i try to load more content the button "older post" disappear without show me any pages. i try only the basic example find in the website.

The pagination looks wrong to me. Here are the docs Infinite AJAX Scroll Docs as you can see the ".next" is used on a link not "li" in your code you use it on "li" tag and "a" tag. I presume the way this plugin works is it looks for href on the a tag then ajax calls it and grabs it content then appends to the container DOM.

<ul id="pagination" class="pager">
            <li class="next">
                <a href="2.html">1</a>
                <a class="next" href="2.html">Older Posts &rarr;</a>
                <a href="2.html">3</a>
            </li>
        </ul>
