I set post per page from setting>maximum post per page to 20. I have 2 different custom post types 'book' and 'author' for archives of each of them. I want to load different number of post in page. I want to load 20 book per page in book archive and 5 post in author archive in each page. I also use WP-PageNavi plugin.

Here is my code

?php
$paged = get_query_var( 'paged' ) ? get_query_var( 'paged' ) : 1;
$args = array( 'post_type' = 'Author','paged' = $paged,'posts_per_page' =5 ); 
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $loop-have_posts() ) : $loop-the_post(); ?
a href="?php the_permalink(); ?" class="writer-link col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12"

    div class="writer-row1 col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12"
        div class="col-md-2 col-sm-3 col-xs-12 image-right"
        ?php the_post_thumbnail('post-thumbnail',array('class' = 'img-responsive')); ?
        /div
    div class="col-md-10 col-xs-12 col-sm-9 col-xs-12 pull-right writer-content"
    h3?php the_title(); ?/h3
    h4?php the_field('auth-trans'); ?/h4  
    ?php if ( get_field('writer-bio') ) { 
        echo 'p'.get_field('writer-bio').'/p';} ?

            span.../span
    /div
/div
/a

   ?php endwhile; // End of the loop. ?           

    div class="wp-pagenavi row"
        div id="wp_page_numbers text-center col-sm-6 center-margin"
            ul
                li class="active_page text-center"?php if(function_exists('wp_pagenavi')) { wp_pagenavi(array( 'query' = $loop )); } ?/li
            /ul
        /div
   /div

No problem with book archive: it loads 20 posts. But I don't know how I can make author page to load just 5 post per page and after it has loaded 5 first posts it is going to next page.

add below code in functions.php file , here "event" is custom post type (change it as per your post type) , so here it will display 6 post on events list page , also you need to copy default archive.php file and copy and create new archive-event.php (replace event with your post type).

 function custom_type_archive_display($query) {
    if (is_post_type_archive('event')) {
         $query->set('posts_per_page',6);
         $query->set('orderby', 'date' );
         $query->set('order', 'DESC' );
        return;
    }     
}
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'custom_type_archive_display');

Hope this Helps :)

You will have to make the query arguments dependend on the type of archive you are generating (which WP already knows from the page slug). Luckily there is a test for that, called is_post_type_archive. In the beginning of your code you would include this:

if (is_post_type_archive('books')) {
  $args = array( 'post_type' => 'Books','paged' => $paged,'posts_per_page' =>20 );
  }
elseif (is_post_type_archive('author')) {
  $args = array( 'post_type' => 'Author','paged' => $paged,'posts_per_page' =>5 );
  }
