EffectIO Ambrosite Next/Previous Post Link Plus 2.4

Description:

This plugin creates two new template tags, next_post_link_plus and previous_post_link_plus. These tags are upgraded versions of the core WordPress next_post_link and previous_post_link template tags. The plugin is intended for use in single post templates. It includes all the functionality of the core tags and adds several options for advanced navigation.

The new tags allow users to sort next and previous post links using columns other than post date, such as alphabetically or by custom fields. Users can also configure the display to include the post title, date, author, category, and meta value. The plugin supports full WordPress 3.3 compatibility, including custom post types, custom taxonomies, and post formats. It also allows the navigation to loop around to the first post if no next post exists, or retrieve the first or last post instead of the next or previous one.

For greater control over the navigation stream, the plugin offers multiple methods to restrict links based on category, taxonomy, format, author, or custom field value. Users can also exclude specific categories, taxonomies, or post IDs. The plugin can return multiple next or previous links in an HTML list, or return the link data, such as the ID or title, instead of echoing it to the screen. It returns false if no link is found, allowing themes to conditionally display alternate text.
