Date based pagination (one list page per day)

Although that does sort them, I still seem to see the issue that it’s not allowing pagination:

{{ $pages := (where .Site.RegularPages "Section" "not in" .Site.Params.IgnoreInFeeds).GroupByDate "02 January 2006" "desc" }}

<pre>
{{ (.Paginate $pages).Pages }}
{{ (.Paginate $pages).PageGroups }}
</pre>
Pages(0)
[Pages(14) Pages(11)]
