 * Hi there!
 * I’m redesigning my website, originally created with a classic theme and a popular
   website builder, using only the block editor and twenty twenty-four theme. The
   learning curve has been steep, so I’m likely missing something here…
 * I’m using the query loop to display posts. I’ve played around with pretty much
   all patterns and am confused with the following: grid and offset patterns (ie,
   patterns displaying the posts in multiple columns) only seem to support pagination
   per post template, rather than per pattern. Take a look at these setups:
    - ‘Grid of posts featuring the first post, 2 columns’ – [https://photos.app.goo.gl/rtSqpQggWTrofiMr6](https://photos.app.goo.gl/rtSqpQggWTrofiMr6)
    - ‘Offset’ – [https://photos.app.goo.gl/ycaqQ6vL2eqV2Weq6](https://photos.app.goo.gl/ycaqQ6vL2eqV2Weq6)
 * Because there are two query loops per column here, there are also two post templates
   and hence two pagination blocks (!). My desired behavior would be **one pagination
   block per pattern**.
 * I also noticed that the pagination URLs of grid patterns in general result in
   ugly URLs such as: /?query-321-page=2 , /?query-321-page=3, /?query-322-page=
   2, etc. One column patterns result in familiar pagination URLs such as /page/
   2/, /page/3/, etc.
 * I read the [documentation](https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/pagination-block/),
   namely:
 * > A **Pagination** block is included by default if you choose a correct pattern
   > in a Query Loop block. That said, you can also insert it manually when needed.
 * What is a “correct pattern”? How can I manually insert the pagination block for
   grid and offset patterns?
 * What about the pagination URLs – is there a workaround here?
