I suggest you use it with interpolate_fancy for testing whether $prevnextstory::prevlink and $prevnextstory::nextlink are defined to avoid spurious links to appear when there is no older or fresher story. =head1 INSTALLATION Drop this plugin into your plugin directory. Place substitution variables $prevnextstory::prevlink and $prevnextstory::nextlink in your flavour file as an href value for an anchor element. You can also use $prevnextstory::prevtitle and $prevnextstory::nextlink to get the titles of those stories, and $prevnextstory::prevdate and $prevnextstory::nextdate to get their publication dates. If you need the dates, you will have to adapt the @monthname and @monthabbr lists to your needs, and in some cases modify the formatting performed by the make_list subroutine (default date format is DD/MM/YYYY, with month names in French). =head1 VERSION 2005-02-12blosxom2 Version number is the date on which this version of the plug-in was created. =head2 CHANGES 2006-01-01blosxom2 : take into account the corrections of $path_info in recent versions of blosxom.cgi 2004-08-22blosxom2 : First published version =head1 AUTHOR(S) Barijaona Ramaholimihaso Based on chrono_nav plugin by Victor Ganata (, http://blog.fatoprofugus.net ) which was itself based on tree plugin by Ryan Schram (http://www.rschram.org) with inspiration and some code techniques used in prevnextentry from Tatsuhiko Miyagawa (http://www.bulknews.net) =head1 SEE ALSO Blosxom Home/Docs/Licensing: http://blosxom.sourceforge.net Blosxom Plugin Docs: http://blosxom.sourceforge.net/plugins/ =head1 BUGS None known; please send bug reports and feedback to the Blosxom development mailing list . =head1 LICENSE Copyright 2003-2007, Barijaona Ramaholimihaso Blosxom and config Plug-in Copyright 2003, Rael Dornfest Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
