手动编号分页在wordpress模板文件中不起作用

我有此代码有效，显示“较旧的条目”和“较新的条目”。但是，我想编辑此代码以显示“ 1”，“ 2”，“ 3”等，而没有左/右箭头或Prev / Nex文本。因此，我做了研究并且感到困惑。我可以理解诸如Wordpress分页（数字分页位于底部），如何向您的WordPress主题中添加分页和分页链接之类的教程，但它们并未说明将代码放置在何处。仅第二篇教程完全解释了我需要做的事情，但是即使如此，这种方式还是行不通的...

我的代码有效：

$paged = ( get_query_var( 'paged' ) ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;

// the query
$the_query = new WP_Query( 'cat=9&posts_per_page=9&paged=' . $paged ); 
?>

<?php if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : ?>

<?php
// the loop
while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); 
?>

<div class="proyectpost">
            <article id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>" <?php post_class(); ?>>

            <div class="innerpost">

             <div class="postthumbnail">
            <?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it.
    $image_src = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(),'full' );
     echo '<img src="' . $image_src[0]  . '" width="100%"  />';
    } ?>
            </div>
            <div class="posttitle">
        <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
            </div><!-- .entry-header -->

        <div class="postsubtitle">
        <div class="datepanel">

        </div>
        </div>

</div>
</article><!-- #post-## --> 

</div>


<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php

// next_posts_link() usage with max_num_pages
next_posts_link( 'Older Entries', $the_query->max_num_pages );
previous_posts_link( 'Newer Entries' );
?>

<?php 
// clean up after the query and pagination
wp_reset_postdata(); 
?>

<?php else:  ?>
<p><?php _e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

第二篇教程说过将此代码添加到functions.php中：

// Numbered Pagination
if ( !function_exists( 'wpex_pagination' ) ) {

    function wpex_pagination() {

        $prev_arrow = is_rtl() ? '→' : '←';
        $next_arrow = is_rtl() ? '←' : '→';

        global $wp_query;
        $total = $wp_query->max_num_pages;
        $big = 999999999; // need an unlikely integer
        if( $total > 1 )  {
             if( !$current_page = get_query_var('paged') )
                 $current_page = 1;
             if( get_option('permalink_structure') ) {
                 $format = 'page/%#%/';
             } else {
                 $format = '&paged=%#%';
             }
            echo paginate_links(array(
                'base'          => str_replace( $big, '%#%', esc_url( get_pagenum_link( $big ) ) ),
                'format'        => $format,
                'current'       => max( 1, get_query_var('paged') ),
                'total'         => $total,
                'mid_size'      => 3,
                'type'          => 'list',
                'prev_text'     => $prev_arrow,
                'next_text'     => $next_arrow,
             ) );
        }
    }

}

并用此代码替换默认分页

<?php wpex_pagination(); ?>
