    Hi team,

    I have enabled the “next/previous” post option in the customization area to be shown below the posts, however, the next/previous links skip the posts from different categories. For instance, the previous post will miss 3 or 4 articles that were published in between just because they are not in the same category.

    Could you please let me know how to fix this?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi @srtajpg,

    This is something that is intentional, but if you prefer to not limit the previous/next links to the same category, you can make a slight change in your theme file to override this.

    If you’re using a child theme, you can include a copy of single.php in the child theme, and change one argument from true to false on two lines. From this:

                <div class="previous_post"><?php previous_post_link('%link','%title',true); ?></div>
            <div class="next_post"><?php next_post_link('%link','%title',true); ?></div>

    To this:

                <div class="previous_post"><?php previous_post_link('%link','%title',false); ?></div>
            <div class="next_post"><?php next_post_link('%link','%title',false); ?></div>

    If you have any questions or run into any trouble, just let us know!

    Thanks a lot. It´s a pity that there is no other solution, as I am not using a child theme.
    Have a nice day.

    Ah, gotcha. Well it seems like it could be a useful thing to have a theme option for, so I’ll make a note of this to ensure it’s included in a theme update.

    Thanks for the feedback!
