Previous Page – Next Page not working…

Any ideas? I tried upgrading to 1.5.1.1 but no luck…

For me it doesn’t work even for page2.
What is the code you are using for next-previous?

For what it’s worth, I’m running v1.5.1.1 and have no problems with the previous/next links. In case it helps, here’s the code from my main template:

<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php posts_nav_link('','','&laquo; Previous Entries') ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php posts_nav_link('','Next Entries &raquo;','') ?></div>
</div>

I’m using whatever the default is in the themes… I thought maybe it was the theme that I was using that was causing the problem, but I tried the default and classic themes that come with it and still had the same problem.

Here is the code anyway:

<?php posts_nav_link() ?>

Thats the usual, right?

Do the links work if you disable all of your plugins?

I dont have any plugins enabled…

macmanx,

I tried your code, and now it doesnt work at all even from the first page…

Is there a setting hiding in some config file that might be making it think that its in a different location than it actually is on the server?

and now that I’ve switched back its not working for the old code either…

there must be something hiding telling it that its sitting at /subdomain/dailyjapan.com

So nobody else has had a problem like this? Do you think it could be a problem with my host? (netfirms)

still tinkering with it but no luck… I cant believe nobody else has had this problem!

I have the same problem, but it’s low on the list of things I need to get working! If I find a solution I’ll send it to you.

Are you using netfirms as well?

I have been trying to fix this problem, and figured if I went in and changed the function to reflect the proper URL it would work, but I’m lost when I look at the template-functions-links.php file and find:

function posts_nav_link($sep=’ — ‘, $prelabel=’« Previous Page’, $nxtlabel=’Next Page »’) {
global $request, $posts_per_page, $wpdb, $max_num_pages;
if (! is_single()) {

if (get_query_var(‘what_to_show’) == ‘posts’) {
if ( ! isset($max_num_pages) ) {
preg_match(‘#FROM (.*) GROUP BY#’, $request, $matches);
$fromwhere = $matches[1];
$numposts = $wpdb->get_var(“SELECT COUNT(ID) FROM $fromwhere”);
$max_num_pages = ceil($numposts / $posts_per_page);
}
} else {
$max_num_pages = 999999;
}

if ($max_num_pages > 1) {
previous_posts_link($prelabel);
echo preg_replace(‘/&([^#])(?![a-z]{1,8};)/’, ‘&$1’, $sep);
next_posts_link($nxtlabel, $max_page);
}
}
}

I cant figure out where it makes the link in there… no abspath or anything, so I’m lost.

Can anyone help?

Fixed it!!!

Just did a little playing around with php and this solved my problem:

function get_pagenum_link in template-functions-links.php

I added the following under $qstr = $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’];

$qstr = substr($qstr,26);

I had 26 characters showing up as extras (absolute path) so used that to get rid of them.

I then removed $index from the line

$qstr = $index . ‘?’ . $page_querystring . ‘=’ . $pagenum;

near the bottom of the function.

Now I have a working next and previous page on netfirms! ??

Thanks much for this! I’m also a Netfirms user, and this fixed my own “previous entries” problem like a charm.

I’d just like to add that not just “$index” should be removed from that last bit, but “$index .”, leaving it looking like:

$qstr = '?' . $page_querystring . '=' . $pagenum;

I originally left the ” .” and all hell broke loose on my blog. What fun!
