First of all, I love this forum, it's helped me a ton, so I'm trying to give back a little. I don't check in often, so if you ask questions in this thread, I'm sorry if I'm delayed with an answer. If you're a visual learner, you can look at my page as you read the details below:

OK, my problem was that page navigation was not working for me. if you where on my site, and clicked on one of our main navigation options, it would take you to that page with no problem. That page would load just fine. If you went to a page that had more post than what was set in the admin panel, you would see the page navi options at the bottom. Great, it's supposed to do that.
MY ISSUE WAS, if you clicked on "Page 2" of the pagenavi, you would get a 404 error. GRRRRR
Essentially, my issue was that my URL structure was not correct for pagenavi to work.
I had created a custom navigation menu, using my custom categories that I created as the main navigation options. This works fine. The issue is the way I structured my URLs. My navigation looks something like this:
Home | Fight Scene | Media | etc....
And the URL that I had for the link associated with fight scene was
http://www.thecagedoor.net/fight-scene
That works fine...until you get more post in that category and then try to roll to page 2.
What would happen is, it would create the following URL automatically (based on the CURRENT LOCATION AND URL)
http://www.thecagedoor.net/fight-scene/page/2
That's was the problem. That URL that was getting created was wrong. It was wrong because the base URL was wrong.
In order for the URL to work, I had to redo my navigatoin and send clicks for fight scene to
http://www.thecagedoor.net/category/fight-scene
Now, when you choose page two, it takes you to the following FUNCTIONAL URL
http://www.thecagedoor.net/category/fight-scene/page/2
AND THAT WORKS!
Hope that helps anyone out there who is banging their head against the wall like I did trying to figure this out.
