Query post – Pagination not working

    Hi,

    I am using the 2010 theme, and using query posts for the homepage – showing latest 4 news category posts.

    <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts("posts_per_page=4&cat=1"); ?>

    However, the ‘older posts’ link just loops to show the same page..

    Here is the permalink structure:

    Homepage – homepage.com
    Homepage – page 2 – homepage.com/page/2/

    Any advice on how to get this pagination working correctly would be appreciated!

    Thank you,

    J

    Try it with this:

    <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
query_posts("posts_per_page=4&cat=1&paged=".$paged); ?>

    If this is a static front page use:

    <?php
if ( get_query_var('paged') ) { $paged = get_query_var('paged'); }
elseif ( get_query_var('page') ) { $paged = get_query_var('page'); }
else { $paged = 1; }
query_posts("posts_per_page=4&cat=1&paged=".$paged);
?>

    Thanks for your help.

    Yes it’s a custom template – home.php, using a page within WordPress.

    The code you have supplied is not working for me. Syntax error line 25:

    You’re missing the start of the loop.
    try changing this:

    <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php if ( get_query_var('paged') ) { $paged = get_query_var('paged'); }
elseif ( get_query_var('page') ) { $paged = get_query_var('page'); }
else { $paged = 1; } query_posts("posts_per_page=4&cat=1&paged=".$paged); ?>

    to this:

    <?php
if ( get_query_var('paged') ) { $paged = get_query_var('paged'); }
elseif ( get_query_var('page') ) { $paged = get_query_var('page'); }
else { $paged = 1; }
query_posts("posts_per_page=4&cat=1&paged=".$paged);
?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
