Navigation on blog page is not working

Hello, I am having a little trouble with the navigation on my main blog page. The navigation is not working on the main blog page but it is on the other archive pages. I have it set to scroll currently and when you click on +more nothing loads and when it is not set to scroll it goes to a 404 page.
main blog page https://heliafitness.com/magazine/
archive page example (where it is working) https://heliafitness.com/magazine/sweat/
Thank you,
Dave
Hi there,
Any chance you can disable all plugins except GP Premium to eliminate conflicts from other plugins first?
Let me know :)
Yep, will do that shortly, sorry I should have thought to do that first. Will update you in a few minutes
everything is deactivated and the issue is still there...
Super strange.
Can you try disabling the infinite scroll option and test if the pagination works?

Just tried that and it goes to a 404 page
The next step is to activate a Twenty series WP theme and see if the issue occurs there as well.
I think I am just going to set it to display none for that page for now. Once GBP and ShowPosts have integrated I'm going to rebuild the page(s) anyway.
Thank you Leo
That's not a good way to solve this issue - I feel like we are quite close to isolating the problem if you can just do that one last test above.
You can also try resaving the permalink setting and see if that fixes it:

Heard, and thank you. I went back in, turned the plugins back on and then removed the custom category base name i had used (magazine) ad now it works :) but i expected the category base name to change back to it's default and for my links to break and they have not. I deleted the base name (magazine) but it is still being applied/used. Is that normal? problem solved?
Thank you again for your help Leo
Sorry, my bad, Magazine is also the page name and that's what wasn't change back to categories ;) on the other archive pages it is working as it should and using Category again. All fixed. Thank you :)
No problem :)
