I set show 5 posts in each page from the settings and I try to add a navigation for linking to the next 5 posts with the same type. Try couple times and methods but still couldn't figure it out.
Here is my code, please advise
<?php
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array('post_type' => 'custom', 'paged' => $paged);
$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
$taxonomies = get_taxonomies();
if( $my_query->have_posts() ) { while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
<h4><?php echo get_the_date('F j Y'); ?></h4>
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<p><?php the_field('book'); ?> <?php the_field('start'); ?> - <?php the_field('end'); ?></p>
<?php $content = get_the_content(); ?>
<?php echo do_shortcode( '[audio]' ); ?>
<span> by <?php echo get_the_term_list( $post->ID, 'author'); ?></span>
<p>Tags: <?php the_field('language'); ?> | <?php the_field('section'); ?></p>
<hr>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php previous_posts_link( 'Prev' ) ?> |
<?php next_posts_link( 'Next', 10 ); ?>
<?php } ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>

Also if you have any custom queries before this, put wp_reset_query(); before using get_query_var('page') or use get_query_var('paged')
