    I have a multiple category setup and when I read each post, there are two links at the bottom of the page: Previous Article and Next Article.

    But seems it will goes arcoss categories, not just within the same category.

    Can I modify the setting to make the Previous Article and Next Article links go within the same category only?

    Thank you very much.

  • Hello,

    There is no shortcut for doing this. However, if you can code it on your own, you can achieve this via the child theme.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for your information.

    Would you please guide me or give me some hints where and which files I can modify this?

    Hi,
    Please copy single.php file from Cenote and paste into child theme’s main folder and replace

    $args = array(
					'prev_text' => '<span class="nav-links__label">' . esc_html__( 'Previous Article', 'cenote' ) . '</span> %title',
					'next_text' => '<span class="nav-links__label">' . esc_html__( 'Next Article', 'cenote' ) . '</span> %title',
				);

the_post_navigation( $args );

    with the following code:

    $args = array(
					'prev_text'    => '<span class="nav-links__label">' . esc_html__( 'Previous Article', 'cenote' ) . '</span> %title',
					'next_text'    => '<span class="nav-links__label">' . esc_html__( 'Next Article', 'cenote' ) . '</span> %title',
					'in_same_term' => true,
				);

the_post_navigation( $args );
