 Posted: Thu Sep 09, 2004 6:01 am Post subject: "previous post" option |
 |
|
In my b2 I only allow one blog entry to show at a time. I would like to know how can I add an option where I can have a link saying "previous post" on my CURRENT entry and viewers can see my previous post without having to go thru my monthly archives. Also, if their looking at a previous post an option that automatically says "previous post" AND "next post" without the extended comments in the post that shows. Just the post.

| Don't you think I know that already? If you're not gonna help then don't reply at all. I'm seeing too much of ya'll saying that sarcastic shit. "It's in the readme". Obviously I READ the readme and i need further instructions on how to make the link DIFFERENT which is NOT in the ReadMe. |

I already have the link I just want it to show the entry without the comments that was made. I also want to edit what the link says. Whenever I try it on my own i get parse errors.
IE : The link now says "previous post : No Guarentees". I want to change the link where I have control over what's being said |

Changing what the link says is.... uhm... covered in the readme:9
| Quote: | <?php next_post() ?> *
Displays a link to the next post(s). (Generally you might want to use that tag only in single-post templates)
Parameters:
format string for the link (default is "%", where % is replaced with the title of the next post)
text to display to announce the link (default is "next post: ")
"yes" or "no": display the title of the post, or no (default is "yes")
"yes" or "no": display a link to the next post only if the next post is in the same category (default is "no")
number: which next post ? if you make it '2', the 2nd next post is linked instead of the 1st next one (default is "1", which means first next post) |
BUT, as for your other issue, far more interesting, I'd look in the file called b2functions.php.
The trick is making it call the post without &more=1&c=1, but you've probably thought about that already.

Sorry for the late response. I've been real busy. However, I don't have b2functions.php so what do i do about this?
PS - Everything else you've told me worked very well so I appreciate your help. |
