 * Hi, i have a query string that i need to be able to add pagination to. I’ve tried
   multiple solutions but i have yet to find anything that works.
 * We’ve used this code for a while and it works perfectly for what we need but 
   we were pulling all the posts into one page and it was starting to load very 
   slowely so i need to break it up and add pagination.
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 *     ```
       <?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=3&orderby=Catalog #&order=DESC&showposts=15"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
       				<div style="float:left;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px">
       <img src="<? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Thumb', true) ?>"></div>	
   
       <div style="float:right;margin:0px 10px 0px 0px"><? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Catalog #', true) ?></div>
       <b><?php the_title(); ?></b><br>
       <font color="#666666"><? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Title', true) ?></font><br>
       <b>Format:</b> <? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Format', true) ?><br>
       <b>Released:</b> <? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Released', true) ?><br>
       <? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Pressing', true) ?><br><br>
       <div style="float:left;margin:0px 0px 0px 0px">
       <?php echo apply_filters('the_content', get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Audio', true)); ?></div>
       <div style="float:right;margin:0px 0px 0px 0px">
       <a href="<? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Itunes Link', true) ?>"target="_blank"><img src="http://purenoise.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/itunes.png" alt="Itunes" border="0" ></a> <a href="<? echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'Pure Link', true) ?>"target="_blank"><img src="http://purenoise.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/pn.png" alt="Pure Noise Store" border="0" ></a></div>
   
       <div style="border-bottom:1px dotted #cccccc; margin-bottom:10px; padding:0px 0px 0px 0px; clear:both;"></div>
   
       <?php endwhile; ?>
       ```
   
 * Thanks
