Hi everyone,
I'm displaying the usual Previous/Next post navigation above each of my posts.
I want to add a bit of custom text to these links, so they appear as
« Previous Post: POST TITLE Next Post: POST TITLE »
It's the 'Previous Post: ' and 'Next Post: ' text that I want to add.
Can anyone give me some idea of what I need to put in a custom function to perform this?
Many thanks in advance,
Tony.
I also require this.
It seems clear here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Next_and_Previous_Links
Thematic doesn't seem to make use of the standard functions so I'm not too sure how to apply it.
Where can I find: thematic_previous_post_link?
I found the following solution in another thread (http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/change-previous_post_link-appearance-by-filter-not-working).
To customize the content of the links try tweaking some of the values in the below filter:
function childtheme_override_previous_post_link() {
$args = array ('format' => '%link',
'link' => '<span class="meta-nav">MMM</span> %title',
'in_same_cat' => FALSE,
'excluded_categories' => '');
$args = apply_filters('childtheme_prev_post_link_args', $args );
previous_post_link($args['format'], $args['link'], $args['in_same_cat'], $args['excluded_categories']);
} // end thematic_previous_post_link
add_filter('thematic_previous_post_link','childtheme_override_previous_post_link');You can further customize the links by removing the navigation:
function remove_post_navigation() {
remove_action('thematic_navigation_above', 'thematic_nav_above', 2);
}
add_action('init', 'remove_post_navigation');...and adding whatever you require:
function add_custom_navigation_above() {
?>
<div id="nav-above" class="navigation">
<div class="nav-previous"><?php thematic_previous_post_link() ?></div>
<div class="nav-next"><?php thematic_next_post_link() ?></div>
</div>
<?php
}
add_action('thematic_navigation_above','add_custom_navigation_above');This will do the trick ;-)
This plugin may save you some time:

I've used it for implementing tooltips on the post links.
