How to Change the Pagination Link Format.

Did you use a query on your “products” page template?

if so can you show us this query here.

Please read the Forum Rules. on how to post code

No i didnt use any query, thecartpress comes with a shortcode which allows you to display products on a partcular page. There is also a setting which allows you to set the number of products to display on the page etc.
So basically i used the short code. When i use the products as a page instead of home page then the pagination is directing properly…
but as soon as i set the products page as the home page the pagination changes and breaks…

Try resaving your permalink structure under Settings > Permalinks.

If that doesn’t help try it with this in your theme’s functions.php:

add_action('pre_get_posts', 'paged_homepage');
function paged_homepage($query){

  if($query->is_main_query() ){
    if($query->get('page_id') == get_option('page_on_front')){

      // change the number to how many products you want to show
      $query->set('posts_per_page', 10);

      if ( get_query_var('paged') ) { $paged = get_query_var('paged'); }
      elseif ( get_query_var('page') ) { $paged = get_query_var('page'); }
      else { $paged = 1; }

      $query->set('paged', $paged);

    }
  }
}

change the posts_per_page number to the page settings from the plugin.

Hi you are not getting my problem.
Look at this website https://dreamingfitness.com/
I have made the “store” page as my home page
Now if you go down you will see the pagination which is not controlled by wordpress pagination but by the “thacartpress” pagination.
If you click on page 2 it will show you nothing to display.
Where as go to this page
https://www.dreamingfitness.com/test/catalogue/
and if you click on page 2 it will take you to second page.
As soon as i set this page to home page the pagination doesnt work any longer.

In case of dreamingfitness.com when i dont make the store as the home page
then the pagination is working the link pattern is something like
https://dreamingfitness.com/products/page/2/
but as soon as i make the store as my home page the link pattern changes to
https://dreamingfitness.com/page/2/
and it doesnt work anymore. If you manually
change this
https://dreamingfitness.com/page/2/
to
https://dreamingfitness.com/products/page/2/
then it will again work.
This is the reason i want to change the link pattern of home page…
If i change it from the permalinks then the rule becomes universal…
I want it applicable only for that particular page (home page).

I understand the problem but without hacking the plugin I would suggest you contact the plugin authors.

[edit] Oops I think you already done that.

Ya i have done that but i think it doesnt require hacking the plugin.
By default the pagination of homepage link format is
https://www.mysite.com/page/2
so if we can just change the homepage pagination link pattern then it could be achieved.
