This works for me with no 404s <?php $args = array ( ‘posts_per_page’ => 5 , ‘paged’ => $paged, ‘ignore_sticky_posts’ => true ); $blog_query = new WP_Query($args); if ( $blog_query->max_num_pages > 1 ) { next_posts_link(‘← Older posts’, $blog_query->max_num_pages); previous_posts_link(‘Newer posts →’, $blog_query->max_num_pages); } while ( $blog_query->have_posts() ) { $blog_query->the_post(); // STUFF } if ( $blog_query->max_num_pages … Read more
With this code: get_template_part(‘content’, ‘page’ ); WordPress will try to load a file called content-page.php and if this file doesn’t exist then it will try to load content.php. Your theme seems to have the file content-page.php, so if you want to load content.php you should use: get_template_part(‘content’); EDIT: You have edited the question and delete … Read more
That sounds strange. Could you see the title of the page before you selected it and pressed save? Also, what version of WordPress are you using?
If I understand you well, button ‘Preview Changes’ displays changes made on post/page while you ‘Update’ page/post (save changes). But, ‘View Page’ displays page as is with latest ‘Update’ version. So, if you did not updated page, then you’ll not see what you get when you go to ‘Preview Changes’.

when a page is set to be the posts page, then the ‘page_for_posts’ option will contain the page id of that page; in this case, you can output the featured image with: if( is_home() && get_option( ‘page_for_posts’ ) echo get_the_post_thumbnail( get_option( ‘page_for_posts’ ) );
The problem with this, as it often is, is not just homepage, but the continuous nature of pagination. Let’s say we start with 10 posts on home page and 5 of them social. Client says that they would like 2 less of social. We can get rid of them easily enough, but now we need … Read more
