 * pagination plugins doesn’t work on my theme. (Radiate theme)
    So I tried to paginate
   with coding. I add the code in function.php, style it in style.css But I do not
   know why I can not call it in index.php. wherever I paste it in index.php, it
   doesn’t work. finally I had to paste it in footer.php which doesn’t looks good
   as you see in my site (WWW.cinemagap.com) So anyone can tell me where should 
   I paste this code in index.php to work below page?
 * this is the code:
 *     ```
       <?php if (function_exists("pagination")) {
           pagination($additional_loop->max_num_pages);
       } ?>
       ```

 * actually I’m a newbie in PHP. So could you tell me exactly where should I paste
   this code?
 *     ```
       <?php
   
       /**
        * The main template file.
        *
        * This is the most generic template file in a WordPress theme
        * and one of the two required files for a theme (the other being style.css).
        * It is used to display a page when nothing more specific matches a query.
        * E.g., it puts together the home page when no home.php file exists.
        * Learn more: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy
        *
        * @package ThemeGrill
        * @subpackage Radiate
        * @since Radiate 1.0
