I've found that the links that `the_posts_pagination` generates seem to go weird once you navigate past the first page in the Posts archive. I was testing my own theme and seeing issues and to rule out anything that I've done, I’ve now tested with another theme from the .org Theme Directory and I'm seeing the same issue. I was testing with the RTL Tester plugin and wasn’t sure if it was the plugin causing some issues, so I set my default language to Arabic and deactivated the plugin and still saw the same issue (so pretty sure it’s not the RTL Tester plugin either). For your reference, the other .org theme that I tested against was [https://wordpress.org/themes/generatepress/ GeneratePress]. After activating the RTL Tester, I switched to RTL. When on Page 1 of the blog archive, `the_posts_pagination` returns the following links. The numbers go RTL as expected. Both the arrow and ‘Next’, link to Page 2 (as expected). See: https://cl.ly/1o3F3O1f3P0W When you go to Page 2, the links revert back to LTR (ie. showing ‘1 2 3…‘, instead of ‘…3 2 1’). Also, ‘Previous’ and the left-pointing-arrow (ie. The arrow on the right) link to Page 1, ‘Next’ and the right-pointing-arrow (the arrow on the left) link to Page 3. See: https://cl.ly/382Q0d1r1M0c In some previous themes that I've developed, I've used `paginate_links` and after just retesting those, they seem to work fine. As soon as I change them to use `the_posts_pagination` though, I have the same issue as mentioned. Was testing with WP 4.8.2 using FF & Chrome. " defect (bug) closed normal Themes 4.8.2 normal invalid
