On the homepage you are using a custom feed element, which does not have pagination. It has option to show fixed number of posts or display all posts on an infinite scroll.
But you can use pagination in the blog page. If you'd like to have paginated feed in the homepage, I recommend to select similar paginated layout (Editorial) on your blog page and set it as your homepage.
There are so many issues with the new blog it's hard to know where to start. I only chose the custom feed element that I chose because of the problem described. If I choose one with page number only ONE page was listed, not the 100 or more pages that should have been listed. Choosing the feed I have chosen at least let our readers select old posts.
The next problem is the blog post layout themselves. I chose a white layout with black text, but when someone clicks on the post it comes up with the default green background.
Can anyone at Wix help, because the new blog you have forced us to use is nowhere as good as the old one (and that wasn't great).

Paginated feed is only possible on the blog page. To have paginated feed, you have to:
1. Navigate to blog page.
2. Click on the feed in the Editor.
3. Click Settings on the floating panel.
4. Click the Layout tab.
5. Select Side by side, Editorial, Magazine, Postcard or One column layout
6. Set to display feed with page numbers.
7. Select how many posts per page to display
New blog takes colour from the page template when installed. In order to change colour of your post page colours, you have to:
1. Click the Blog button on the left side menu of the Editor.
2. Click Blog Pages.Click Post.
3. Click Go to Post Page.
4. Click the post in the Editor.
5. Click Settings on the floating panel.
6. Click the Design tab.
The same principle can be used to change colours on your feed, just go to your feed page and find the design tab in the feed settings.
If you want to have paginated feed on your homepage, you have to set blog page as homepage. Before you do this, copy all elements from your current homepage to the blog page. To do this, you can use shortcut ctrl+a (on Win) or command+a (on Mac) to select all elements and then copy and paste to the blog page. If you need help to set homepage, this article may help.
The old blog is more user-friendly. The format for the new blog is sometimes disoriented but when you try to edit, it is seems like everything is okay just like the old blog. I also tried to add a divider but I lost all the info in the blog and I cannot undo it. In addition, the slideshow is not moving and the pictures look bad unlike the old blog. I regret using the new blog and deleting the old blog. I hope you find a fix to this.
