get 404 when increasing posts per page in reading settings

    Hi,

    Currently, I am using genesis studio press on my live site https://hashimashi.com. There are 94 blog pages with dashboard > reading > settings at 5 blog posts per page on the live site, but when I migrate the site to the 2021 WordPress site, there are 27 blog pages when reading settings are increased to 18 blog posts per page which is what I want to do.

    However, any request for /blog/page/28 and above returns a 404 on the new site.

    Shouldn’t WordPress know that the contents of /blog/page/94 is now found on /blog/page/27, for example?

    Is there a way to prevent all these 404s?

    Or should I still increase the reading settings even though I know these 404s will be generated?

    Thank you,
    Richard

    Hi there,

    I checked your site and it appears you’re in the wrong forum. Although your site is connected to WordPress.com via Jetpack, it is using the open-source WordPress.org software and you need to seek help at these forums:

    https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/

    These forums are for WordPress.com-hosted sites only. Since we do not have access to self-hosted WordPress.org sites, we are unable to provide any direct assistance to your issue.

    Thanks!
