    Hi there!

    Great plugin, finaly its possible to do something with that links.

    I’d like to use the thumb as a background image for the div above the pic, but i cant figure out, how to get and use the fragments after setting echo = false

    My code till here is (as example only the next link)

    next_post_link_plus( array(							 'order_by' => 'post_title',
'order_2nd' => 'post_date',
'link' => '%title',
'format' => '%link',
'tooltip' => '%title',
'tooltip' => '%title',
'loop' => true,
'max_length' => 30,
'thumb' => 'medium',
'before' => '<div id="next-post-link" style="background-image:url(????);">',
'after' => '</div>',
'echo' => false
) );

    How can i build up the link like
    echo '<div class="next-post-link" style="background-image:url('*THUMBNAIL*');"></div> <a href="*LINK*" title="*TITLE*">*TITLE*</a>';‘` etc.

    I think if you could give me the example for the thumbnail code i can figure out the rest.

    Thanks a lot!

    Do you mean you want to use the post thumbnail as the background image for the div? That is not possible without hacking the plugin code.

    Okay, thank you for your answer =)

    I used this code, if this helps anyone with the same problem:

    $prev_post = get_previous_post();
			$next_post = get_next_post();
			if (!empty( $prev_post ) OR !empty( $next_post )) {
				echo '<ul id="postnavi"><li>';
				$maxlength = 15;
			}
			//Prev Post
			if (!empty( $prev_post )){
				//Shorten the Title
				if (strlen($prev_post->post_title) > $maxlength)
					   $shorttitleprev = substr($prev_post->post_title, 0, $maxlength) . ' ...';
					else
					   $shorttitleprev = $prev_post->post_title;
				//Get the Thumbnail URL
				$src = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id($prev_post->ID), 'thumbnail', false, '' );
				//$src[0];
				echo '<div id="nav-prev-post"';
					if ($src != '') {echo 'style="background-image:url('.$src[0].');"';}
				echo '"><a href="'.get_permalink( $prev_post->ID ).'" title="'.$prev_post->post_title.'"><span class="big"></span><br />'.$shorttitleprev.'</a></div>';
			}
			if (!empty( $prev_post ) OR !empty( $next_post )) {
				echo '</li><li>';
			}
			//Next Post
			if (!empty( $next_post )){
				//Shorten the Title
				if (strlen($next_post->post_title) > $maxlength)
					   $shorttitlenext = substr($next_post->post_title, 0, $maxlength) . ' ...';
					else
					   $shorttitlenext = $next_post->post_title;
				//Get the Thumbnail URL
				$src = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id($next_post->ID), 'thumbnail', false, '' );
				//$src[0];
				echo '<div id="nav-next-post"';
					if ($src != '') {echo 'style="background-image:url('.$src[0].');"';}
				echo '"><a href="'.get_permalink( $next_post->ID ).'" title="'.$next_post->post_title.'"><span class="big"></span><br />'.$shorttitlenext.'</a></div>';
			}
			if (!empty( $prev_post ) OR !empty( $next_post )) {
				echo '</li></ul>';
			}
