How do I fix WordPress pagination?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:13 am

When pagination is not working in WordPress, it can be difficult to determine the cause. There are a few things to check, and in most cases, the issue can be resolved by following a few simple steps.

First, make sure that the pagination is enabled in WordPress. To do this, open the site in a browser and go to the “Appearance” tab in the main admin area.

Under the “Posts” heading, find the “Pages” option and check the box next to it.

If pagination is not working, the first thing to check is the pagination plugin. There are a few popular plugins available, such as WP PAGINATOR and WPBakery Page Builder.

If the pagination plugin is not the issue, then the issue may be with the pagination template. To check this, remove the pagination template from the posts and replace it with a custom template.

PRO TIP: If you are having issues with pagination on your WordPress site, it is strongly advised that you seek professional help. Attempting to fix this issue yourself could result in further damage to your site.

Then, test the pagination in the custom template.

If the pagination still does not work, then the issue may be with the WordPress database. To check this, delete all of the posts in the site and re-install WordPress.

Then, re-install the pagination plugin and test the pagination in the posts again.

If the pagination still does not work, then the issue may be with the WordPress theme. To check this, delete the posts and re-install the WordPress theme.

In most cases, the issue can be resolved by following a few simple steps. If the pagination still does not work, however, then it may be necessary to contact the WordPress support team for assistance.
