I’ve received dozens of complaints from those who use the DuckDuckGo browser (on mobile, presumably) that pagination isn’t working. If they’re on https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/ and click to page 2, the URL for page 2 is https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/?query-c82e90c0-page=2 … but they don’t see the second page of posts, just the first page again. It’s as though that ?query-c82e90c0-page=2 bit in the URL is ignored.
Pagination works fine with other browsers.
Is this a known issue, specifically with the DuckDuckGo browser? Do you know of a workaround?

Hi there,
took a little nosing to find this – but that looks to be related to this feature of Duck Duck Go:
https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/privacy/web-tracking-protections/#link-tracking-protection
https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/privacy/web-tracking-protections/#referrer-tracking-protectionNote the second link refers to it removing
?querystrings…. which is a problem for users of those browsers as a LOT of sites use this kind of referrer to deliver content. GenerateBlocks and the core WP Query Loop block use these as it allows you to have multiple loops on a page without breaking pagination ( ironically ).To fix this you would need to replace the home page with a Latest Post page which uses standard
/pagepagination.It would mean that other content outside the main loop ( e.g the featured post section ) would need to be added using a block element.
