Check if there is a next_post_link()

  • Hello,

    I need to perform an IF statement to check if there is a next post inside ‘the loop’ and, if true, display the next_post_link(). But I’m unsure on the IF statement condition?

    Anyone?

    Ty.

  • This might work:

    $in_same_cat = false;
$excluded_cats = '';
$previous = false;
if (get_adjacent_post($in_same_cat,$excluded_cats,$previous)) {
   // display next_post_link
}

    Yeah, worked great.

    <div id="post-nav">
	<p class="previous_post">
		<?php if(get_adjacent_post(true, '', true)) { ?>
			<b>Previous: </b> <?php previous_post_link('%link','%title',true); ?>
		<?php } ?>
	</p>
	<p class="next_post">
		<?php if(get_adjacent_post(true, '', false)) { ?>
			<b> :Next</b> <?php next_post_link('%link','%title',true); ?>
		<?php } ?>
	</p>
</div>

    Cheers.

    Glad it worked! But, I am curious – would this work without the call to get_adjacent_post?

    <?php previous_post_link('<b>Previous: </b>%link','%title',true); ?>

    If so, it would save 2 database accesses.
