Hey all,

I'm running into difficulties trying to get query_posts to paginate.

Basically I'm attempting to output only posts that match a tag (on the homepage, tag of "front-page") or category for the other pages.

Here is what I have so far;

              <?php
          if ( get_query_var('paged') ) { $paged = get_query_var('paged'); }
          elseif ( get_query_var('page') ) { $paged = get_query_var('page'); }
          else { $paged = 1; }
          query_posts( array ( 'tag' => 'front-page', 'posts_per_page' => 5, 'paged' => $paged ) ); ?>
              <?php if ( have_posts() ): while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

                  <article class="excerpt category-<?php $category = get_the_category(); echo $category[0]->slug; ?>">
                      <h2><a href="<?php esc_url( the_permalink() ); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
                      <span class="date" datetime="<?php the_time( 'Y-m-d' ); ?>"><?php echo get_the_date('F jS, Y'); ?></span>

                      <?php the_field('excerpt'); ?>

                      <a href="<?php esc_url( the_permalink() ); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>" class="button blue">Read More...</a>
                      <a class="comment-count" href="<?php esc_url( the_permalink() ); ?>#disqus_thread"></a>
                  </article>

              <?php endwhile; ?>

              <?php else: ?>
                  <p class="nothing-found">Nothing Here, Son!</p>
              <?php endif; ?>
          <?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

Any ideas on how I can paginate the above? I've tried all sorts of variations but are working properly.
