# Next/Previous incorrect

 * On a single post page, the next_post/previous_post tags with the “in_same_cat”
   parameter set to ‘yes’ do not work properly because, as the Codex says : “If 
   post is listed in more than one category, it will show posts within the parent
   category, not the child category.”
 * The “Next/Previous posts in same category” plugin from Scriptygoddess does not
   work better.
 * When a user picks up a post from a category page, he should see links to the 
   previous and next posts in that same category.
    NOT links to the posts belonging
   to the parent category. NOT links to the posts belonging to all the categories
   to which the original post is related.
 * Is there a solution? (I did search this forum first!)
 * Thank you
    Philippe

 * Next and Prev links need to be able to take multiple categories into account,
   and allow one to restrict which categories the “next” post comes from.
 * Basically, I need, in single.php, a “click-thru” for posts, based on 1 of the
   categories to which they belong, and not to ALL of the categories to which they
   belong.
