Is there an easy way to rebind the side buttons of a mouse to Page Up and Page Down on KDE?

Go into system settings > mouse > select your mouse > rebind buttons
- Thank you. These are the settings available to me, but I do not see the option to rebind buttons.
  
  Ah, you're on Xorg. This feature is only available in the Wayland session

Technically it's a universal method (not limited to KDE): Input Remapper.

If you've got Logitech, check out Piper (which is really just a GUI wrapper for libratbag). After a lot of searching, this ended up being the solution I went with.
EDIT: pulled up the link but then forgot to paste it, sorry! https://github.com/libratbag/piper
- Thank you for that, I had no idea it existed.

others have provided you with a some good answers so i only mean to share that; if none of those work for you; you can google search key mapping on google to find even more alternatives to try out.

I use https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next You can check if your device is supported https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next/wiki/Supported-Hardware here
Select your device -> select the button -> binding -> keyboard -> Miscellaneous -> Page Up or Page Down -> Apply
