navigation/page permalink problem

  • Previous/Next Page permalinks are not working…meaning the url changes, but the content stays the same.

    When I switch back to the default them the navigation works fine.

    I’ve read several posts regarding this topic, but I still can’t seem to figure it out. A while back I changed my permalink structure to /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/ — but I’m not sure I understand how that relates to the next/previous page navigation which tries to call, for example: https://letsgetawesome.net/page/3/

    Am I correct in assuming that this is not an .htaccess problem because the navigation is working when the default theme is selected?

    navigation code is as follows:

    `<?php

    <hr />

    <?php if (is_single()) { ?>

    <div class=”navigation”>
    <div class=”left”><?php previous_post(‘« %’,”,’yes’) ?></div>
    <div class=”right”><?php next_post(‘ % »’,”,’yes’) ?></div>
    <div class=”clear”></div>
    </div>

    <?php } else { ?>

    <div class=”navigation”>
    <div class=”left”><?php next_posts_link(‘« Previous Entries’) ?></div>
    <div class=”right”><?php previous_posts_link(‘Next Entries »’) ?></div>
    <div class=”clear”></div>
    </div>

    <?php } ?>

    <hr />`

  • That’s an outdated template tag.

    thanks moshu! i’m not very code saavy and don’t know exactly what i should replace with what from the template_tags link you posted. could you let me know? i’m using k2, which has a standalone navigation.php file.

    (also, have since realized that
    tags: don’t work (just displays 1st page)
    categories: work
    monthly archive: works)

    This:

    <div class="left"><?php next_posts_link('? Previous Entries') ?></div>
<div class="right"><?php previous_posts_link('Next Entries ?') ?></div>

    next_posts_link and its pair are old, outdated tags.

    okay. changed my navigation.php file to what’s below, replacing the next_posts_link and previous_posts_link (code posted below). but no change.

    <?php /*
    This navigation is used on most pages to move back and forth in your archives.
    It has been placed in its own file so it’s easier to change across all of K2
    */ ?>

    <hr />

    <?php if (is_single()) { ?>

    <div class=”navigation”>
    <div class=”left”><?php previous_post(‘« %’,”,’yes’) ?></div>
    <div class=”right”><?php next_post(‘ % »’,”,’yes’) ?></div>
    <div class=”clear”></div>
    </div>

    <?php } else { ?>

    <div class=”navigation”>

    <div class=”alignleft”><?php posts_nav_link(”,”,’« Previous Entries’) ?></div>
    <div class=”alignright”><?php posts_nav_link(”,’Next Entries »’,”) ?></div>
    <div class=”clear”></div>
    </div>

    <?php } ?>

    I am not familiar with that theme, you may want to try:
