You can still use offset though, you just have to do some math to multiply your desired offset by the current page number (note that this calculation works because posts per page and offset are both 5, you may … Read more
This is why I asked for more code context. I’ll have to guess that you are checking for the front page outside of any hooked function, or inside a function that is called too early, before is_front_page() is ready. The following will work. function your_function() { $d = is_front_page(); var_dump($d); } add_action( ‘wp’, ‘your_function’ );

However, your paginated links code always use paged: … ‘format’ => ‘?paged=%#%’, … So you are sending paged query var but looking … Read more
wp_title() is for the html title tags in your websites head section. It’s not for outputting a title. Use the_title(), or get_the_title(),
EDIT From your comments, front-page.php is only used when a page is set as a static front page. Normal home pages, ie, when Front page displays is set to Your latest posts, index.php is used. All archive pages and the front page uses paged and not page, so you would need to set get_query_var( ‘page’ … Read more
This solution needs to be revised for that pagination functions are in functions.php. I am using Reverie master theme (which uses foundation framework), that theme uses pagination function which is in functions.php if( ! function_exists( ‘reverie_pagination’ ) ) { function reverie_pagination() { global $wp_query; $big = 999999999; // This needs to be an unlikely integer … Read more
