Wordpress navigation setup problems...really NEED help!!

    Hello all,

    I'm currently developing this website: www.stompergames.com
    It's a video game website that I tweeked enough so that I can easily add games using custom fields. Tell me what you think?

    Here's my question... I only want a maximum of 12 posts to be shown on every page. I would also like to have a "static front page". I have done those two things. However, I'm having trouble with setting up the navigation. I now have the wordpress standard navigation system snippet
    -->
    <div class="navigation"><p><?php posts_nav_link(); ?></p></div>
    <--

    I'm using that in the index.php file. I am using page.php and single.php template files, but do not want navigation to show up on those.

    When clicking on the navigation links, I get the "NO POSTS" error. Why is that happening, and/or how can I fix it?

    I actually prefer the flexibility of the wp-pagenavi plugin better than the wordpress one. so if your solution would allow me to use that one, that would be even better.

    Please help, Thanks,
    Alex

    Try creating a home.php file. This will be used instead of the index.php for the home page. Basically just copy your index.php file and rename it home.php.

    Did you make this theme yourself? I'm not really sure how you're getting a "no posts" error, but take a look at the differences between your index.php and the two files you're having trouble with.

    I can't see the error you're getting - is this fixed, or do you have a development environment.

    the error is in the page navigation... between the newer and older posts....when on this page= www.stompergames.com/adventure, click on next page at the bottom... this will show you my problem.

    I tried the home.php thing this we already. :)
