Thanks, I have actually looked at those links and tested the solutions but still with no avail.

and tested the solutions

your posted (moderated) code does not show any of this.

please repost your code and somebody might be able to give you some code to try.

Okay, so after more trial and error I realised the link wasn’t displaying because of pagination problems, so I added a code to offset the page number, and now the links are actually showing up, but when I click “next”, the posts on uglyd.com/news/page/2 are the same as the posts on uglyd.com/news.

This is the full code for my template:

<?php
/*
Template Name: Blog
*/
?>

<?php get_header(); ?>
<style type="text/css">
#phogallery .post ul li {
	color: #b30838;
	font-weight: normal;
}
</style>

<div id="phogallery">
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div class="post">

<ul>
<li>latest news</li>
</ul>
<?php
	$args = array(
		'cat' => '66',
		'orderby' => 'date',
		'order' => 'DESC',
		'posts_per_page' => '10',
		'paged' => '$paged'
	);

	$the_query = new WP_Query( $args );?>

<?php $paged = get_query_var('paged'); ?>
        <?php $offset = 0;
        if ($paged != 0 ) {
            //$paged -1 because there is no page 1, just 0 and 2 And page 0 is skipped
            $offset = ($paged-1) * get_query_var('posts_per_page') ;
        } ?>
        <?php query_posts('offset=' . $offset); ?>

<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>

<a>">
<pre><?php the_title() ;?></pre>
</a>
	<a>"> <?php the_post_thumbnail(array (580, 580)); ?></a>
	<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php previous_posts_link('previous'); ?>
<?php next_posts_link('next'); ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>
