  I’m on a free set up with a simple layout using the Edin theme in the form of a web site rather than blog
  Can I add next/previous page buttons to this theme?
  Cheers, Sean

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello there,
  Your question isn’t clear, where are you trying to add the buttons? Are you trying to add a button to the home page or on one of the posts page?
  If you could explain your question a little bit, we will be glad to help. That said, you can find details about customising the edin theme here.

  This is a web site rather than a blog and I would like to allow the users to simply navigate to the next or the previous page with next and previous buttons/links at the top or bottom of each page (similar to here – http://vleblog.lboro.ac.uk/cad/sample-page/assemblies/assembly-fundamentals/) – I presume thse have to go in the theme? Can I customise free themes to that degree? I have a breadcrumb trail setup but this only moves up and down layers not within a layer.

  I am not really sure you can customise the theme to that extent. You can only edit/customise the CSS file and not edit the theme file as such. That said, I am no expert in CSS to tell you if the buttons can/can’t be added by editing the CSS file.

  Cheers, so how do I get to the CSS?

  You have to purchase the custom design upgrade to edit your theme’s CSS file.

  Nothing for free then.
  I wonder if any of the free themes have this navigation built in, is there a way to search to see if they have this sort of functionality?

  I don’ t know of a way to search through the themes for this specific functionality. You can may be look for some free themes and check if they suit your needs. May be you might find some thing useful.
