   Hi guys

   I was using this code on a subpage and the pagination worked fine:

   <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   query_posts('category_name=Uncategorized&posts_per_page=10&paged=' . $paged); ?>
   
    <?php if(function_exists('wp_paginate')) {
       wp_paginate();
   } ?>
   
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   Then I set the subpage (http://www.ratethishunk.com/latest) to homepage (http://www.ratethishunk.com) through the WordPress reading settings ("Frontpage displays static page"). On the homepage the paginator displays the same posts on all pages. So e.g. http://www.ratethishunk.com/page/2/ displays the same posts as http://www.ratethishunk.com/page/3/.

   Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

   Note: this is not the same problem as I posted last month: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/recent-posts-with-paginator-problem-help?replies=2

   The problem does seem to be specific to homepage pagination. The way this plugin determines the page will always return the paginated links for page 1 by default, while working everywhere else on the site.

   You can set your own page number during your call to wp_paginate( $args ) by passing it into the $args array. This is an admittedly ugly solution, but I got it working by adding these two functions to the functions.php file:
   

   function bw_get_page_number( $args = array() ){
   	$url =  preg_split( '/\/page\//' , current_page_url() );
   	$page = get_query_var( 'paged' );
   	if( !$page ){
   		if( !empty( $url[1] ) ){
   			$page = preg_replace( '/[^0-9]/' , '' , $url[1] );
   		} else {
   			$page = 1;
   		}
   	}
   	if( $page < 2 ){ $page = 1; }
   	return $page;
   }
   
   function bw_get_page_count(){
   	global $wp_query;
   	$posts_per_page = intval( get_query_var( 'posts_per_page' ) );
   	$pages = intval( ceil( $wp_query->found_posts / $posts_per_page ) );
   	return $pages;
   }

   And the call to wp_paginate( $args ) looks as follows:
   

   $args = array( 'page' => bw_get_page_number() , 'pages' => bw_get_page_count() );
   echo wp_paginate( $args );

   There may be several reasons why this will not immediately work for you, so I'll be sure to check back on this topic for your reply.
