• pagination

• 1 check Pagination when using wp_query? – Buttered_Toast Commented Feb 10, 2021 at 12:13
• This just looks like the archive of latest blogpost posts. Is there a reason you’re using a custom query and not just the archive template? – Jacob Peattie Commented Feb 10, 2021 at 12:25
• @JacobPeattie I am not sure that this is the code which is on blog page template, need to intrgrate the pagination but it is not coming. I have tried what the above comment says so the pagination came but when i change to next showing same contents only – Naveen Commented Feb 10, 2021 at 12:29

Fixed by adding the below code.

<?php 
                        $paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
                            $child_query = new WP_Query(array('post_type' => 'blogpost', 'orderby' => 'date', 'order' => 'DESC','paged' => $paged));
                            while ( $child_query->have_posts() ) : $child_query->the_post(); ?>
                                <div class="single-post">
