# “next” and”previous” missing

 * Hi,
    I’ve just noticed that none of the posts, when displayed in full (or in 
   part) have a “next” or “previous” link in the page so the reader can go to the
   next post or the previous post in the blog. This is missing on the mobile and
   also the desktop set-up.
 * Am I missing an option to turn these on or off somewhere? This is a basic one
   so I assume it’s me missing something obvious?
 * thanks

 * Hi, [@simoncawthorne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simoncawthorne/)
 * Please check your reading settings. Maybe your total created posts are less than
   the number of posts to show per page.
 * Head to Wp-Settings >> Reading >> Blog page show at most
    Here try again, after
   decrease the number (as posts to show per page)
 * Let me know did it work.
 * Thanks

 * Hi Imraz
 * I think he is talking about navigation to previous and next post from the specific
   post.
 * Also on forums mentioning username in each comment is not the good practise. 
   Please do avoid this.

 * Hi,
 * thanks, yes:
    it’s the navigation to previous and next post from the specific
   post.
 * I’ve done a check with a couple of other (random) themes, and this option returns
   for these other themes. And as a result, I’ve also been through a reload for 
   the content theme and also the spice press theme too – but no result here.
 * I’ve checked in the editor for the content and spice press themes and the syntax
   on main page looks like it’s present to enable/have this navigation.
 * Help appreciated here
 * thanks

 * Hi, Simoncawthorne
 * Sorry for the delay in reply!
 * Just install the [WP Post Navigation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-post-navigation/)
   plugin to add “next” or “previous” link in the single post page.
 * Let me know did it work.
 * Thanks
