I have a page template querying a custom post type that I’m trying to set up pagination on. My permalink settings is set to Postname (/%postname%/). But the pagination links don’t show up. I’ve gone through a bunch of the codex and I’m at a loss. Below is an oversimplified version of what I’m going for and it still doesn’t show the pagination links. Thanks for your help!

<?php
*/
* Template Name: Artworks Index
*/

get_header();

$paged = get_query_var('paged') ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$the_query = new WP_Query(array(
	'post_type' => 'artpress_artwork',
	'paged' => $paged,
	'posts_per_page' => 5,
));

if($the_query->have_posts()):
?>
<div class="artworksIndex">
	<h2 class="artworksIndex-title">Our Artworks</h2>
	<div class="artworksIndex-artists">
	<?php while($the_query->have_posts()):
		$the_query->the_post();
		the_title();
	endwhile; ?>
	</div>
</div>
<div class="clear--both"></div>
<div class="pagination">
	<span class="pagination-prev"><?php next_posts_link('<< Prev') ?></span>
	<span class="pagination-next"><?php previous_posts_link('Next >>') ?></span>
</div>
<?php 

endif;
get_footer();

?>
