Single post on home page w/ post_link
-
First I have to give credit to Kafkaesqui for this piece of code.
<?php
$wp_query->is_single = true;
previous_post();
$wp_query->is_single = false;
?>I altered the code to replacing template tags: previous_post_link, and next_post_link. Why, I didn’t like the output and needed to exclude some categories.
This works, but the code doesn’t generate the post title. When I check the source to see what is there, I find an a tag with a link that is not part of the excluded categories {good thing}. Just no text for a visitor to see or check. {bad thing}
<?php
$wp_query->is_single = true;
previous_post_link('%link', false, '2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7 and 8');
$wp_query->is_single = false;
?>However, if I do this with the addition of %title. The problem is, the functions quits excluding the categories I asked.
<?php
$wp_query->is_single = true;
previous_post_link('%link','%title', false, '2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 and 7 and 8');
$wp_query->is_single = false;
?>Has any one else had the same problem or is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks in advance for helping.
