posts_nav_link points to the wrong location when using static frontpage

    Well, that’s only one way to look at it. You could also say that previous posts are located at an incorrect permalink.

    I’m using a static frontpage and my blog is located at domain.com/blog/. The posts_nav_link() creates links link domain.com/blog/page/2/. This is correct I think. However, my previous posts aren’t located there, they’re located at domain.com/page/2/. This is wrong I think. Does anybody know of a way to fix this?

    I’m having the exact same problem here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/173415?replies=4#post-755241

    What version are you using? I had this problem in WP 2.5.1

    I’m getting the really bad feeling this is a bug.

    i’ve found a temporary solution

    i was having the very same problem under wordpress 2.5.0.

    Just edit the file /wp-includes/link-template.php
    function get_pagenum_link ….

    (around line number 600)

    After ” $request = remove_query_arg(‘paged’);”
    Add the following lines

    $request=”/”;
    if($pagenum==1)
    $request=”/blog”;

    this will overwrite the /blog of the /blog/page/x of the href of the problematic link to previous and following posts. Although, if the user is returning to the front page of the blog, it restores the “/blog” so the user doesn’t end opening the front page of the whole site (“http://site/”).

    I think this problem is a bug… but i don’t know… with this simple solution we can make a workaround until it is solved.

    hope it helps
