Next and previous links don't work

    I created a page of posts from one category of my blog. In the settings, I have it set to show only the most recent 7 posts. I put `<div class=”navigation”><p><?php posts_nav_link(‘∞’,’«« Go Forward
    In Time’,’Go Back in Time »»’); ?></p></div>` to put in links to go to the next and previous pages. However, when I click either link at the bottom of the page, it takes me to the most recent 7 posts. How do I make it so that I can navigate to the previous posts. The page in question is located at https://modesofbeing.com/photo-diary/page/2/ .

    what is the code of your custom query on that page template?

    (if the code snippet is longer than 10 ines, please paste it into a https://pastebin.com/ and post the link to it here)

    try to integrate the ‘paged’ parameter:

    My query is

    <?php query_posts('cat=299'.get_the_title().'&post_status=publish,future');?>

	<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
	<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
	<p><?php the_content(); ?>
	<?php endwhile; else: endif; ?>

    get_the_title() gets the title of the current post… placed here it was only breaking your query.

    query_posts('cat=299&post_status=publish,future');

    also, maybe try to integrate the ‘paged’ parameter:

    <?php query_posts('cat=299&post_status=publish,future&paged=' . get_query_var('paged'));?>
