4,506 PointsPagination (next_posts_link/previous_posts_link/pagination_links) in combination with advanced custom fields and custom post types in wp
Does anybody know a few resources in regards of pagination in wp in combination with advanced custom fields and custom post types?
in a wordpress project i've set up a custom post type based on advanced custom fields which mimic more or less exactly the general wp posts functionality with the difference that i am more flexible in regards of image handling, responsive images in particular. but on the downside i was unable to get the native wp pagination functions (next_posts_link/previous_posts_link/pagination_links) with acf and custom post type working. if someone has a recommendable link to read i would appreciate cuz so far my research on the net wasn't that successful. :/ best regards r.

Treehouse Guest TeacherHi,
If you use the same pagination code with your normal home.php or blog post listing page does the pagination work? I want to make sure that the code you're using works in a normal setting, just not with the custom fields.
I assume that you've looked at all the WP_Query functions regarding pagination? You might want to check out this post on CSS Tricks as well as read the comments, which have some trouble shooting techniques: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/wordpress/paginate-custom-post-types/
Hope that helps!
