[Theme: Vantage] Pagination breaks when switching from posts to static front pag

Hello,

it worked right the first time I was using it but I don’t understand this at all.

I built a site that displays normally using the Vantage theme from Siteorigin. I added in a post loop that worked well with pagination.

Just now I needed to change something on the front page. Apparently Vantage decided that no I didn’t want to edit my front page, but reset it to show all the posts. So I set it back to show my index page again but now pagination is broken and displays vertically. I couldn’t figure it out in CSS even with the Siteorigin CSS tool. So I dug into the page source and found that now it’s adding
tags between every pagination link making them display vertically when it worked properly (horizontally) before.

Is there some fix for this?

Using latest version everything.
