    i have created a custom post type in wordpress by adding the following to my custom themes function.php

    function oil_paintings_init() {
$args = array(
  'labels' => array(
    'name' => __( 'oil-paintings' ),
    'singular_name' => __( 'oil-painting' ),
    'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'oil-painting'),
  ),
    'public' => true,
    'show_ui' => true,
    'capability_type' => 'post',
    'hierarchical' => false,
    'query_var' => true,
    'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-format-image',
    'supports' => array(
        'title',
        'editor',
        'revisions',
        'page-attributes',)
    );
register_post_type( 'oil-paintings', $args );
}
add_action( 'init', 'oil_paintings_init' );

    I have created a custom page template which loops and displays the posts from the custom post type i have added above . I want to show 5 posts at a time and rest by next and previous links on the page. This is the code which i have used:

    <?php if($wp_query->have_posts()): while($wp_query->have_posts()) :    $wp_query->the_post(); ?>
    <div class="columns">
    <img src="<?php the_field('image1'); ?>" alt="" />
    <a href="<?php the_Permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
    </div>
<?php endwhile;
 next_posts_link("next");
 previous_posts_link("prev");
 endif;
 wp_reset_postdata(); ?>

    The problem i am facing is when i enable permalinks in my wordpress to

    ‘https://www.domainname.com/%postname%/&#8217; –>this does not work

    the next and previous posts link stop working and i get a page not found error. everything works ok if my permalinks is set to plain

    ‘https://www.domainname.com/?p=123&#8217; –> this works

    any help in this regard is aprreciated. Thanks

  • just 404 and 403 page are not yet setup, depends on apache or nginx,

    @digio paris.. i did not understand. The 404.php page is there

    ok sorry,

    the full test i was calling you is, if nginx works then a db too.

    afer, depends how you set it up.

    did you try theme or template as native in like functions.php?

    ok finally found the solution. Moved the rewrite out of the labels array.
    the following modified code in funtions.php did the job for me

    function oil_paintings_init() {
$args = array(
  'labels' => array(
    'name' => __( 'oil-paintings' ),
    'singular_name' => __( 'oil-painting' )
  ),
    'public' => true,
     'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'oil-painting'),
    'show_ui' => true,
    'capability_type' => 'post',
    'hierarchical' => false,
    'query_var' => true,
    'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-format-image',
    'supports' => array(
        'title',
        'editor',
        'revisions',
        'page-attributes',)
    );
register_post_type( 'oil-paintings', $args );
}
add_action( 'init', 'oil_paintings_init' );
