I'm all for consistency in such matters, hence my initial question. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personal-blogs-and-links-to-previous-and-next-posts#post-1248670 Sun, 11 May 2014 16:48:13 +0000 Greg 1248670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ornella,</p> <p>This is one of those areas where there is a lot of debate. Like you, what makes most sense to me is...</p> <p>&lt; older ---------------- newer &gt;</p> <p>But actually the most common approach is...</p> <p>&lt; newer ---------------- older &gt;</p> <p>These are the default settings for WordPress and Blogger, arguably &nbsp;the two most popular blogging engines. I think it has to do with the fact that blogs are in reverse chronological order and the second option is consistent with that.</p> <p>On the YLF blog, we do the opposite, but I decided to do the traditional thing on the Lookfab blogs.</p> <p>But now that I think about it, I would prefer to be consistent with YLF, so let's swap them around and see whether anyone has a problem with that.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/personal-blogs-and-links-to-previous-and-next-posts#post-1248120 Sat, 10 May 2014 22:41:11 +0000 Ornella 1248120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Greg</p> <p>I just noticed new (to me?) feature on the personal blog with links to previous and next posts at the top&nbsp;just like on the main blog... however, I think they are swapped, with the more recent post being linked on the left side and the previous one is on the right.</p> <p>Photos below to illustrate the&nbsp;<br />1. Current chronological order of my posts (top post being more recent, so I'd expect to to be&nbsp;linked to from the right greyed link in the next photo)<br />2. The way they are linked to from the opened post </p> </p>
