 * Hi there,
 * I’m using a child theme of Twenty Eleven and had messed with the code a bit in
   content.php and functions.php but I returned everything the way it was. However,
   now my previous post link isn’t working correctly.
 * When clicking the previous post (I changed the number of posts to display to 
   5 to check it. It’s a new site, so I only have 10 posts so far.), it will display
   the same 5 posts. And then when you click the previous posts link again it goes
   to the search box and never shows the first 5 posts I’ve made.
 * I’m not sure if I’ve ever used this link before since it’s still a new site so
   this is the first time I’ve noticed it.
 * Here’s the link: [http://www.moningmaniacs.com/](http://www.moningmaniacs.com/)
 * Thanks for your help!

 * Hi there,
 * Was finally able to figure out where I caused this to happen. I couldn’t figure
   out (at first) how to make only a certain number of posts to show. Forgot I had
   included something in the index.php to make only a certain number of posts show.
   So, it was a conflict. Deleted that and now I’m good.
 * thanks!
