Do everything out of the box but why no updates? Please update it or make a fork. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/98a9361ee2b1396c45c1a1ee89d02e9490b17714e7b69ba65fcd268c883ceb3b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[What I wanted](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/what-i-wanted-4/)󠁿 [jaroslawistok](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jaroslawistok/) May 13, 2018 Exactly what I expected!

It allows my visitors to hit on the next/previous post by clicking on the buttons. However, my only complaint is that, visitors can only go to the next/previous post FROM THE SAME CATEGORY. But what if my visitors wants to browse through the LATEST posts on the homepage? It would be nice to have both! 🙂 I believe this is a Wordpress issue and not a plugin issue. Anyway, I love this reliable plugin nonetheless. Good work Devs! 😀 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/48165ef534fc9f60270527cf70c3fba87aef9407a05673cbecc3829b5e48a42c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Thank you!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/thank-you-1076/)󠁿 [clever_name](https://profiles.wordpress.org/clever_name/) September 3, 2016 I’ve been trying to create my own navigation links for category nav and archive nav respectively. This plugin does exactly what I need it to do! Thank you 🙂 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/37687d25704c2f633e48b036a8bb4cd0c5170a9ae9846cd4714724085643b50c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[No category sorting to be selected](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-category-sorting-to-be-selected/)󠁿 [JK](https://profiles.wordpress.org/worldwidej/) September 3, 2016 I think the plugin is working with WP 4.5 (April 2016) though it has not been updated for 2 years. But what I need it for is not working, not available: sort by category. There is no field in the backend to switch from sorting by date to sorting by category. I guess it requires programming abilities, which I do not expect from a plugin. I am not a programmer and like to use WordPress´ CMS. Have to go on searching for another plugin that sorts by category… (weird enough to me that is not in the theme or WP in general as I would think it is useful for everyone in general). ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/b23397863574745063ffba632be87ef99d76aa7c219ec74f905c43d3e9b1f215? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Looks cool](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/looks-cool-4/)󠁿 [Direct Sellers Society](https://profiles.wordpress.org/direct-sellers-society/) September 3, 2016 Works quite well in the Salient Theme we are using for our website [ Read all 26 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-post-navigation/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “WP Post Navigation” is open source software.
