[Plugin: Smarter Navigation] Assigning more than one category to posts breaks plugin

Hey All,

Not sure where I’ve gone wrong, but if I assign a post to 2 categories, namely “A” and “B”, then when I access the post from category “A”, I get previous/next links to posts in category “B”, when I actually expect to see previous/next links to posts in category “A” only.

I use a custom “child theme” under the “TwentyTen” theme (WP v3.0.4 and Smarter-Navigation v1.2.1.)

For each category I have a page to display all its posts using:

<?php query_posts(‘cat=catID’); ?>

This is true for the “HOME” page as well, which is set to display the “ARTICLES” category, to which ALL posts would belong.

In fact, in my layout I would like each post to belong to 2 categories: 1) A “SPECIFIC-TOPIC” category, 2) The “ARTICLES” category, which ideally, would display ALL posts on the “HOME” page.

I currently have only one post that belongs to more than one category: https://www.sunnybalanga.com/2011/01/14/my-new-listen-to-all-day-tune/

This post belongs to both the “MUSIC” and “ARTICLES” category.

If you access it via the “MUSIC” page/category, you should only see previous/next links to other posts in the “MUSIC” page/category, and If you access it via the “HOME” page, you should see previous/next links to posts in the “ARTICLES” category.

However, when you access this post from the “MUSIC” category/page, the previous/next links displayed belong to the “ARTICLES” category instead of the “MUSIC” category.

I have read all the posts in this forum. It appears the plugin should be doing things exactly the way I want, but it isn’t, and I can’t figure out why.

In single.php I have:

<?php previous_post_smart( ‘%link’, ‘<span class=”meta-nav”>’ . _x( ‘←’, ‘Previous post link’, ‘twentyten’ ) . ‘</span> %title’, ‘TRUE’ ); ?>
<?php next_post_smart( ‘%link’, ‘%title <span class=”meta-nav”>’ . _x( ‘→’, ‘Next post link’, ‘twentyten’ ) . ‘</span>’, ‘TRUE’ ); ?>

If anyone has a clue, I sure could use the help.

Thanks in advance,
Sunny
