Custom Archive – multiple pages

I created a custom archive template, and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. However, I would like to automatically create multiple pages, instead of infinitely scrolling. Maybe by year, so each year is its own page?

Here is the code for my custom archive page template:

<?php
/**

 * @license GPL-2.0+
 * @link    http://www.studiopress.community/topic/creating-custom-page-templates/#post-82959
 */

//* Template Name: Custom Archive

//* Remove standard post content output
remove_action( 'genesis_post_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'genesis_do_post_content' );

add_action( 'genesis_entry_content', 'sk_page_archive_content' );
add_action( 'genesis_post_content', 'sk_page_archive_content' );
/**
 * This function outputs posts grouped by year and then by months in descending order.
 *
 */
function sk_page_archive_content() {

	global $post;
	echo '<ul class="archives">';
		$lastposts = get_posts('numberposts=-1');
		$year = '';
		$month = '';
		foreach($lastposts as $post) :
			setup_postdata($post);

			if(ucfirst(get_the_time('F')) != $month && $month != ''){
				echo '</ul></li>';
			}
			if(get_the_time('Y') != $year &amp;&amp; $year != ''){
				echo '</ul></li>';
			}
			if(get_the_time('Y') != $year){
				$year = get_the_time('Y');
				echo '<li>&lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h1&gt;' . $year . '&lt;div class="archive-meta-out"&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;ul class="monthly-archives"&gt;&lt;div&gt;';
			}
			if(ucfirst(get_the_time('F')) != $month){
				$month = ucfirst(get_the_time('F'));
				echo '<li>&lt;h2&gt;' . $month . ' ' . $year . '&lt;/h2&gt;<ul>';
			}
		?&gt;
			&lt;div class="archive-meta-out"&gt;<li>
				&lt;?php if (function_exists('get_cat_icon')) get_cat_icon('class=avatar'); ?&gt;
			&lt;h3 class="archive-title"&gt;<a>"&gt;&lt;?php the_title(); ?&gt;</a>&lt;/h3&gt;
				&lt;span class="entry-meta"&gt;&lt;time class="entry-time"&gt;&lt;?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?&gt;&lt;/time&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
				&lt;?php the_excerpt('');?&gt;


&lt;/div&gt;
			</li>
		&lt;?php endforeach; ?&gt;
		</ul>
		&lt;?php
}

remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_entry_footer_markup_open', 5 );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_post_meta' );
remove_action( 'genesis_entry_footer', 'genesis_entry_footer_markup_close', 15 );

genesis();

Thanks in advance for any help!

You can use a new WP_Query with the date parameters or genesis_custom_loop

Sorry - trying this again.
