[Resolved] Pagination Custom Post Type Child Theme

I’m using the latest version. permalinks are set.

page is here

Newswire

pagination does not fire.

this is the code for page that pulls the data:
<div class=”listing-page”>
<?php
$posttype = ‘lda’;
$args = array(
‘posts_per_page’ => 6,
‘post_type’ => $posttype,
‘post_status’ => ‘publish’,
‘orderby’ => ‘post_date’,
‘order’ => ‘DESC’,
‘lda_category’ => ‘lda-newsire’,
‘post_status’ => ‘publish’,
“nopaging” => false,
“paged” => get_query_var(‘page’)
);
$posts_array = new WP_Query( $args );

if ( $posts_array->have_posts() ) :
while ( $posts_array->have_posts() ) : $posts_array->the_post();
$permalink = get_the_permalink();
?>
<div class=”post-<?php the_ID(); ?> post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-blog”>
<h2>
“>
<?php the_title();?>

</h2>
<?php
if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.
the_post_thumbnail(‘medium’,[‘class’ => ‘img-responsive custom_post_img’]);
}
?>
<div class=”post-content”>
<p>
<?php
$excerpt = get_the_excerpt();
echo $excerpt;
?>
</p>
</div>
<p class=”readmore”>” title=”<?php the_title(); ?>”>Read more …</p>
</div>
<!–post–>

<?php endwhile; ?>
<div class=”pagination”>
<?php the_posts_pagination(); ?>
</div>
<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

</div>
<!–listing-page–>

tested it but it then no data is displayed because I have a custom function to use a shortcode

function newswire() {
global $content;
global $wpdb;
ob_start();
include ‘include/newswire.php’;
$output = ob_get_clean();
return $output;
}
add_shortcode( ‘newswire’, ‘newswire’ );

maybe you have a better way.

if I could see how you do it on your demo page, I could apply that to mine.

how you call the custom type.
