   Hello,

   I'm having a pleasant afternoon, trying everything i can find to make this work. It did work before but no joy in my current theme.

   I have a page with the following code in it. Does all the displaying of post loop but will not paginate
   

   <?php
   $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
   
   $xib = new WP_Query( array(
   'post_type' => 'exhibitions',
   'posts_per_page' => 6,
   'orderby' => 'menu_order',
   'order' => 'ASC',
   'paged' => $paged
   						) );
   while ( $xib->have_posts() ) : $xib->the_post(); ?>
   	<div id="recordwrap">
   	<div id="record" class="storycontent">
   <p class="storytitle"><?php the_title(); ?></p>
   <?php the_content('more..'); ?>
   </div>
   
   <div id="featuredimg">
   <?php
    if ( has_post_thumbnail()) {
      $large_image_url = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(), 'full');
      echo '<a href="' . $large_image_url[0] . '" rel="shadowbox[ex]" title="' . the_title_attribute('echo=0') . '" >';
      the_post_thumbnail('thumbnail');
      echo '</a>';
    }
    ?>
   
   </div>
   		</div>
   <?php endwhile; ?>
   <?php if (function_exists('wp_paginate')) {
       wp_paginate();
   } ?>

   Did you find a solution to this? I am also looking into how to use this plugin with a similar custom loop.

   I did in the end after trying mod rewrite hacks and plugins. The rewrite thing however led me to sort out my custom post type in functions.php so that i had

   'rewrite' => Array('slug' => 'exhibition')

   in the array under register_post_type

   That made everything work. So i'd say sort out the functions first.

   In other words the path to the pages was being messed up, hence the 404.

   I went with wp_navi in the end too because i wanted page breaks that looked consistent with the archives. wp-paginate doesn't do page breaks yet as far as i know.
