previous/next arrows don't follow categories

  • Unknown's avatar

    I can’t figure out what they are called: at the bottom of each post, the names of previous and next posts appear (with arrows to the left and to the right), to help the reader navigate between posts. I have two categories of posts which I have separated in the “contents.” But these previous/next navigation things mix them all up. That is, if one follows them, one ends up getting posts from both categories in an illogical order. Is there a way of taming these so that they can be confined to categories?

    I hope you can figure out what I am talking about, it is a bit difficult to explain.

    It seems you’ve already removed the posts or switched themes. Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.

    Actually, I did not change or move anything after I posted my help question. What I am asking is a theme-independent, general question. The navigation lines at the very bottom which I have described appear when you go to a post page, regardless of the theme. For example: http://isteyenokusun.com/2010/10/28/rey-su-say/ At the bottom of the page you see “left arrow + title of previous blog” and “right arrow + title of next blog”. Can those be controlled so that when one is viewing posts in one category, that “previous/next” line shows only the posts in that category (instead of blogs in all categories)?

    Posts are assigned to categories, but it’s not possible to restrict browsing posts within a certain category.

    It is possible to hide the links using CSS. You can control the appearance of your blog with a Custom Design upgrade:
