Whether you’re working on a series of articles, reviewing drafts, or just moving through your content, this plugin makes post navigation effortless. ## Installation 1. Upload the `mxwlsoft-editor-post-navigator` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` directory, or search for “Mxwlsoft Editor Post Navigator” in the WordPress admin plugin installer. 2. Activate Mxwlsoft Editor Post Navigator via the ‘Plugins’ menu. 3. Open any post for editing—you will see the previous/next buttons in the top-right toolbar. ## FAQ ### Why don’t I see the navigation buttons? Please ensure: – You are editing an existing post (the buttons do not appear on new, unsaved posts). – Your WordPress version is at least 6.9, and PHP version is at least 8.3. – You are using the Gutenberg (block) editor; the classic editor is not supported. – No other plugins or themes are interfering with the toolbar DOM. ### How is the navigation order determined? Adjacent posts are sorted by **post date** and **ID**, matching the default order in the admin post list. If multiple posts share the same date, they are further sorted by ID. ### Does it support custom post types? Yes, it supports custom post types. ### Why is the post title truncated? To keep the toolbar clean, the plugin only displays the first few characters of the title (approximately 20 characters in English), while the title itself is displayed as completely as possible. Tip: You can hover your mouse over the title to view the full title content. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Mxwlsoft Editor Post Navigator” is open source software.
