WordPress – pagination

[lukewilde]

I have tried using a few guides for pagination but i can’t get any of them to even display the page numbers which i just don’t understand… So i have resorted to trying out a plug in, which atleast shows the page numbers, but when you click on page 2 it does nothing. Can anyone either help me get pagination working without this plug in or get this plug in to actually work?

doesn’t wordpress have it’s own pagination? Have you tried the template tags? if the plugin you are using doesn’t work, try a different one. There are lots of them. I don’t know how to help you without you giving access to your site. unless you post code

Blog

$args = array(
'paged' => $paged,
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'caller_get_posts' => 0,
);
query_posts('cat=-5');
if (have_posts()) :
while (have_posts()) :
the_post(); ?>

">

Woops...

Sorry, no posts were found.

Thats the code for the blog page, been trying to find answers for pagination since i started learning wordpress and haven’t found anything that works, or explains it in detail.

[cybershot]

in your code, you have query_posts(‘cat=-5’);

I think it should be query_posts(‘cat=5’);

p.s also check out the codex for more on this

If i change it to just 5 no posts show

[cybershot]

what version of wordpress are you using?

[cybershot]

also, how many posts do you have in the category?

[lukewilde]

i have 7 posts in the category, and it is the latest version

[cybershot]

so you see five posts but no pagination?

[cybershot]

try moving your

up before the

wp_link_pages must be inside the loop. maybe it’s not executing where you have it?

[lukewilde]

tried moving that as well as to different places, and still not working, if i put it before the endwhile; else then the page numbers show after every post and still doesnt work.

[cybershot]

at this point, I would try a different loop





" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to ">

Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.

try that loop above. You can see the if(in_category(5)) part of the loop. Try it and see if it works. If it does, you can modify it to show the amount of posts that you want

[lukewilde]

that loop showed the posts, but it just done what it was doing before, when i click page 2 it just changes the URL and not the posts.

[cybershot]

your problem is in here $args = array(
'paged' => $paged,
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'caller_get_posts' => 0,


if you check the url after clicking on the two, you can see the address is wrong. I don’t know how to fix it for you. Sorry
