 * Thanks Scott – I really do want to stick with my plan to use WordPress for so
   many reasons – including the ones you mention. It just seems that this particular
   aspect should be part of the core functionality. I’m not mad about relying on
   a free plugin that may disappear one day or become out of date and no longer 
   be supported.
 * On the other hand I do love the fact that it’s got a huge community and loads
   of useful plugins.

 * Thanks – that looks fantastic. I love WordPress and Pods looks great – so this
   is not a criticism of either – but I do wonder if I should be looking at another
   CMS if it’s so complicated to set this up in WordPress. I would say this type
   of custom record type is a fairly basic requirement for a proper CMS and maybe
   WordPress is still a long way from being a “proper” CMS.

 * hi, thanks for you reply. i’ve tried that and unfortunately it doesn’t work. 
   it will display 6 posts on the first page. then it will display 5 posts on the
   second and subsequent pages. that sounds great until you realise that post number
   6 is displayed on both page 1 and page 2. the reason is that when you get to 
   page 2, the system has been told that there are 5 posts per page. it therefore
   assumes that 5 posts have already been displayed on page 1. however, as we know,
   6 posts have been displayed on page 1. so, there is no continuity between page
   1 and page 2. in other words, page 2 doesn’t know what page 1 has done.
 * this is driving me crazy! anyone else got any suggestions for me?
 * thanks!

 * thanks for letting me know. that’s what i thought but i couldn’t figure out why
   page 2 was looking different to page 1. i now realise that i made a stupid mistake.
   the link to my stylesheet was relative and therefore the link was breaking when
   i browsed to page 2 (it’s deeper in the folder structure with my permalink setup).
   as soon as i made all links root relative, the problem was solved. hope this 
   helps anyone else who might be as stupid as me!
