You can use the following code.

     

        


            

                FIRST
            
            

                Previous
            

            {% if page_obj.number|add:'-4' > 1 %}
                
…
            {% endif %}

            {% for i in page_obj.paginator.page_range %}
                {% if page_obj.number == i %}
                    
{{ i }}
                {% elif i > page_obj.number|add:'-5' and i < page_obj.number|add:'5' %}
                    
{{ i }}
                {% endif %}
            {% endfor %}

            {% if page_obj.paginator.num_pages > page_obj.number|add:'4' %}
                
…
            {% endif %}

            

                Next
            
            

                LAST
