From a single post, how do I change the links at the bottom of the post to display links to the previous & next post in the same category?
It currently displays links to the previous and next post of any category.
Thanks in advance,

ModeratorHi,
Open single.php and find this code
<div class='post_nav'> <div class='previous_post_link_align'> <?php previous_post_link('<span class="previous_post_link">← %link </span>'); ?> </div> <div class='next_post_link_align'> <?php next_post_link('<span class="next_post_link">%link →</span>'); ?> </div> </div> <!-- end navigation -->Replace it with this code
<div class='post_nav'> <div class='previous_post_link_align'> <?php previous_post_link('<span class="previous_post_link">← %link </span>', '%title', TRUE); ?> </div> <div class='next_post_link_align'> <?php next_post_link('<span class="next_post_link">%link →</span>', '%title', TRUE); ?> </div> </div> <!-- end navigation -->Regards,

ModeratorHi Zedduo,
As long as it has the true in the function it should only be able to pull from the same category. See the codex entry for previous_post_link here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/previous_post_link#Text_As_Link.2C_Without_Post_Title.2C_Within_Same_Category
Try refreshing your page a few times to make sure you aren't looking at a cached version where your code change hasn't been applied.

Devin
