• I’m a little apprehensive about editing next_posts_link() and previous_posts_link().

    I believe I found the file to edit (im hoping it’s right)…

    theme-loop.php

    It has this within the php…

    ____________

    if ( $wp_query->max_num_pages > 1 ) : ?>

    <nav id=”<?php echo $nav_id; ?>” class=”navigation”>

    <div class=”nav-previous”><?php next_posts_link( __( ‘<span class=”meta-nav”>«</span> Older posts’, ‘mantra’ ) ); ?></div>

    <div class=”nav-next”><?php previous_posts_link( __( ‘Newer posts <span class=”meta-nav”>»</span>’, ‘mantra’ ) ); ?></div>

    </nav><!– #nav-above –>

    <?php endif;

    __________

    If that’s what I need to edit that’s a relief but I still don’t know if I need to leave this alone and create a child theme file that overrides it. I’d have no idea what file to create inside my child theme and what else it needs inside the file if so.
