Displaying posts limit: can’t get pagination to display [duplicate]

Try reviewing this page on the codex. Using your above template, I would suggest the following:

<?php

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) :

    $args = array( 
        'posts_per_page'     => '5',
        'author'             => get_current_user_id(), // Removes a few lines of code ;)
    );

    $author_posts = new WP_Query( $args );
?>
    <?php /* Author has posts? */ ?>
    <?php if( $author_posts->have_posts() ) : ?>

        <?php /* Loop through author posts */ ?>
        <?php while( $author_posts->have_posts() ) : $author_posts->the_post(); ?>

            <a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/74496/<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>

        <?php endwhile; ?>

        <!-- Basic Pagination -->
        <div class="navigation"><p><?php posts_nav_link(); ?></p></div>

        <!-- Or using Wp Pagenavi (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-pagenavi/) -->
        <?php if( function_exists( 'wp_pagenavi' ) ) wp_pagenavi( array( 'query' => $author_posts ) );

        <?php wp_reset_postdata(); /* Important after a custom query. */ ?>

    <?php else : ?>

        <p>Sorry you have no posts.</p>

    <?php endif; ?>


<?php else : ?>

    <p>Not logged in</p>

<?php endif; ?>
