Pagination Help

I know how to get pagination setup in the actual query string with the whole ‘$paged=’ thing, but how is it done in wp_query? I’ve looked at the codex for pagination but I’m still left in confusion..

This is my query, but I’m unsure where to add in pagination. I tried to do ‘posts_per_page’ but that didn’t work.
```
<?php
  	$args = array(
	'post_type' => 'portfolio',
	'portfolio_category' => 'portfolio');
	$loop = new WP_Query ($args);
	while ($loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); ?>
```
Any help would be incredibly appreciated!

Is portfolio_category a custom taxonomy?
http://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies#Custom_Taxonomies

and portfolio the term name (category name)?
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Query#Taxonomy_Parameters

[untested]
```
<?php
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'portfolio',
'paged' => $paged,
'tax_query' => array(
		array(
			'taxonomy' => 'portfolio_category',
			'field' => 'slug',
			'terms' => 'portfolio'
		)
	)
);
	$loop = new WP_Query ($args);
	while ($loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post();
?>
```

Yes. portfolio_category is a custom taxonomy and portfolio is the term name.

I’ve tried what you’ve posted above with no success… perhaps its where I’m including the navigation for the next/prev links? I’ve placed them outside the loop – but they don’t show up at all.

Where are you trying to do this (front page, static front page, category page, custom page template …)?

Can you paste and submit the full code of the template file into a pastebin.com and post the link to it here? see the Forum Rules for posting code and using the pastebin.

Its on a custom page template. Here’s my pastebin.

Thanks.
