Pagination on a Search Page

Hello,

I am having issues getting pagination on a search template page. I have used the following code to get pagination working on my custom post archives.

$foundationPosts = new WP_Query(array
(‘paged’=> get_query_var(‘paged’,1),
‘post_type’ => ‘how_to_videos’,

<?php echo paginate_links(array(
‘total’ => $foundationPosts ->max_num_pages
)); ?>

I am not sure how to do this on the search template php file. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Adam

Try something a lot simpler to start with, like this:

	<div class="pagination">
		
		<div class="nav-previous"><?php next_posts_link( 'Older posts', $query->max_num_pages ); ?></div>
		<div class="nav-next"><?php previous_posts_link( 'Newer posts' ); ?></div>
	</div>

This assumes that your main query results array is called $query

This code does not run an extra query, as you can see.
