## Descrizione

**IMPORTANT: Make sure you are using the right plugin.**

 * **Next/Previous Post Link Plus** is intended for use in **single post** templates.
 * **Next/Previous Page Link Plus** is intended for use in **page** templates.

The two plugins have similar sounding, but different, function names. If you mistakenly
install the wrong plugin, you will get a “call to undefined function” error. If 
you want to create next/previous links for your pages, please check out:
 https://
wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ambrosite-nextprevious-page-link-plus/

**IMPORTANT: This plugin is not compatible with PHP 4.** If you try to install it
on a host running PHP 4, you will get a parse error. WordPress has officially ended
support for PHP 4 as of version 3.2, so you should upgrade to PHP 5.2 now. For those
who cannot upgrade, you can download the alternate PHP 4 compatible version of the
plugin. The only difference with the PHP 4 version is that the _%category_ variable
will not work with custom taxonomies.
 http://www.ambrosite.com/download/ambrosite-
nextprevious-post-link-plus.php4.zip

This plugin creates two new template tags — **next_post_link_plus** and **previous_post_link_plus**—
which are upgraded versions of the core WordPress next_post_link and previous_post_link
template tags. The new tags include all of the functionality of the core tags, plus
the following additional options:

 * Sort the next/previous post links on columns other than post_date (e.g. alphabetically).
 * Sort next/previous links on custom fields (both string and integer sorts are 
   supported).
 * Full WordPress 3.3 compatibility, including support for custom post types, custom
   taxonomies, and post formats.
 * Loop around to the first post if there is no next post (and vice versa).
 * Retrieve the first/last post, rather than the previous/next post (for First|Previous
   |Next|Last navigation links).
 * Display post thumbnails alongside the links (WordPress 2.9 or higher).
 * Truncate the link titles to any length, and display custom text in the tooltip.
 * Display the title, date, author, category, and meta value of the next/previous
   links.
 * Specify a custom date format for the %date variable.
 * Restrict next/previous links to same category, taxonomy, format, author, custom
   field value, custom post ID list, or custom category list.
 * Exclude categories, custom taxonomies, post formats, or individual post IDs.
 * Three category exclusion methods for greater control over the navigation stream.
 * Return multiple next/previous links (e.g. the next N links, in an HTML list).
 * Return the ID, title, date, href attribute, or post object of the next/previous
   links, instead of echoing them to the screen.
 * Return false if no next/previous link is found, so themes may conditionally display
   alternate text.
 * Works with Post Types Order and other popular post reordering plugins.

 [Pekka](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pekkagaiser/) 13 Aprile 2020

The plugin works great on my 5.4 copy and does exactly what I need: give me the 
next/previous links for a specific category, rather than all the categories the 
post is in like the built-in functions do. Thank you!

I've been using for years and still works well with current Wordpress. It's the 
only thing I've found that allows me to create the theme I want. Thanks!

Has many options to customize as well. Hasn't been update for a while, but still
works perfectly with WP 4.5.3.
