Which is the main loop in WordPress pagination?
The main loop (if there is more than one loop) is the one that has one of the Multiple Posts Pagination functions before and/or after it. If you didn’t find any of the aforementioned functions in the template file, then your theme may be using a plugin or some other method of pagination.
You would think such page navi feature would be part of WP core already instead of the lame Previous and Next links the system offers. If you have lots of content available for visitors search on your site, this plugin is a must to make the pagination nav the way it should be. One line of code replacement on the template, and it just works.
