Thanks so much! Its working perfectly!

A working result will take me a few hours cause I’d given up on this being fixable and deleted the rest of the changes and graphical changes I’d made lol.

Thanks alot for you help! Highly appreciated!.

Thanks a lot for the help :).

Thanks, but i have already read through that information and still cannot get it to work with this particular theme.

It uses a custom homepage, so even after using wp-navi and adding the above code, plus the pagination thing, i still cannot get it to display the newer/older posts buttons.

I’ve also tried to implement this example (https://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2008/04/19/paging-and-custom-wordpress-loops/) of code in with the themes current code, yet it still will not display the buttons.

Sorry for the double post, but i can no longer edit the above post.

After researching a trying several different things, i now understand that what i want is paging, and that i need to implement pagination, but as i am a noob at this, i don’t fully understand where to start.

Once again, any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Thanks for the info, however;

After having a look at the above links and trying them out, it didn’t really work out how i would like it to be.

By the previous/next page icons, i didn’t intend to go to a separate page, going from Home > About as it turned out to do, but the intention was to go from Home > page 2 of Home.
