<p>Plugin to support navigation by pages – similar to built in function the_posts_navigation() for posts.<br />
Pages in navigation are filtered by provided menu (Primary menu by default) and sorted in the same order as in menu.<br />
By default, main menu is used, but different menu could be used by calling function for displaying with different menu as parameter.</p>
<h3>Disclaimer!</h3>
<p>This plugin works only with classic themes. With FSE themes it will not work, since it depends on classic menus.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<h4>Basic</h4>
<p>Just install and call <code>the_pages_navigation()</code> in your php template. There is also a <code>get_the_pages_navigation()</code> function which returns string with same content.<br />
Arguments to these functions could be supplied, all optional.<br />
* $menu – a menu ID, slug, name, or object (WP_Term) for which to show pages<br />
* $start_position – start position from which position in menu to start navigation<br />
? $end_position – to which position in menu to show navigation</p>
<h4>Advanced</h4>
<p>There are filters that can help to customize plugin output.</p>
<p>Change menu filter</p>
<pre><code>apply_filters('page_nav_menu', $default_menu)
</code></pre>
<p>Filters menu used for navigation.</p>
<ul>
<li>$default_menu – a menu ID, slug, name, or object (WP_Term)</li>
</ul>
<p>Arrow filters</p>
<pre><code>apply_filters( 'page_nav_left_arrow', $HTML )
apply_filters( 'page_nav_right_arrow', $HTML )
</code></pre>
<p>Filters arrow output.</p>
<ul>
<li>$HTML – HTML of arrow, coded as SVG, img or something else.</li>
</ul>
<p>Filter output</p>
<pre><code>apply_filters( 'arrow_wrapper', $HTML_output, $left, $enabled, $output_image, $output_link, $output_div, $output_text )
</code></pre>
<p>Filters whole HTML output.</p>
<ul>
<li>$HTML_output – as the name says</li>
<li>$left – output is for left side (previous)</li>
<li>$enabled – navigation on that side is enabled</li>
<li>$output_image – html of arrow image</li>
<li>$output_link – URL of link to which arrow leads</li>
<li>$output_div – wrapper of text besides arrow</li>
<li>$output_text – text besides arrow</li>
</ul>
<h4>Examples of filtering</h4>
<pre><code>add_filter( 'page_nav_left_arrow', function() {
    return '<svg width="53" height="32" viewBox="0 0 53 32" fill="none" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><path d="M51.77 15.994H1M16.622 31L1 15.998 16.622 1v30z" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round"/></svg>';
} );

Page navigation by menu

Create navigation to next/previous pages similar to navigation for posts. Previous and next pages are determined from menu.

Scott Reilly

<p>This plugin provides two template tags for use in single.php to create a post navigation loop, whereby previous to the first post is the last post, and after the last post is first post. Basically, when you’re on the last post and you click to go to the next post, the link takes you to the first post. Likewise, if you’re on the first post and click to go to the previous post, the link takes you to the last post.</p>
<p>The function <code>c2c_next_or_loop_post_link()</code> is identical to WordPress’s <code>next_post_link()</code> in every way except when called on the last post in the navigation sequence, in which case it links back to the first post in the navigation sequence.</p>
<p>The function <code>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link()</code> is identical to WordPress’s <code>previous_post_link()</code> in every way except when called on the first post in the navigation sequence, in which case it links back to the last post in the navigation sequence.</p>
<p>Useful for providing a looping link of posts, such as for a portfolio, or to continually present pertinent posts for visitors to continue reading.</p>
<p>If you are interested in getting the post itself and not just a link to the post, you can use the <code>c2c_get_next_or_loop_post()</code> and <code>c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post()</code> functions. If you just want the URL to the post, you can use <code>c2c_get_next_or_loop_post_url()</code> and <code>c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post_url()</code>.</p>

<h3>Template Tags</h3>
<p>The plugin provides four template tags for use in your single-post theme templates.</p>
<h4>Functions</h4>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_next_or_loop_post_link( $format='%link &raquo;', $link='%title', $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Like WordPress’s <code>next_post_link()</code>, this function displays a link to the next chronological post (among all published posts, those in the same category, or those not in certain categories). Unlink <code>next_post_link()</code>, when on the last post in the sequence this function will link back to the first post in the sequence, creating a circular loop.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_get_next_or_loop_post_link( $format='%link &raquo;', $link='%title', $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Like `c2c_next_or_loop_post_link(), but returns the value without echoing it.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link( $format='&laquo; %link', $link='%title', $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Like WordPress’s <code>previous_post_link()</code>, this function displays a link to the previous chronological post (among all published posts, those in the same category, or those not in certain categories). Unlink <code>previous_post_link()</code>, when on the first post in the sequence this function will link to the last post in the sequence, creating a circular loop.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post_link( $format='&laquo; %link', $link='%title', $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Like `c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post_link(), but returns the value without echoing it.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_get_next_or_loop_post( $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Like WordPress’s <code>get_adjacent_post()</code> when used to find the next post, except when on the last post in the sequence this function will return the first post in the sequence, creating a circular loop.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post( $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Like WordPress’s <code>get_adjacent_post()</code> when used to find the previous post, except when on the first post in the sequence this function will return the last post in the sequence, creating a circular loop.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_get_next_or_loop_post_url( $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Returns the URL for the next post or the post at the beginning of the series.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>function c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post_url( $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' )</code><br />
Returns the URL for the previous post or the post at the end of the series.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Arguments</h4>
<ul>
<li>
<p><code>$format</code><br />
(optional) A percent-substitution string indicating the format of the entire output string. Use <code>%link</code> to represent the next/previous post being linked, or <code>%title</code> to represent the title of the next/previous post.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>$link</code><br />
(optional) A percent-substitution string indicating the format of the link itself that gets created for the next/previous post. Use <code>%link</code> to represent the next/previous post being linked, or <code>%title</code> to represent the title of the next/previous post.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>$in_same_term</code><br />
(optional) A boolean value (either true or false) indicating if the next/previous post should be in the current post’s same taxonomy term.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>$excluded_terms</code><br />
(optional) An array or comma-separated string of category or term IDs to which posts cannot belong.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><code>$taxonomy</code><br />
(optional) Taxonomy, if $in_same_term is true. Default ‘category’.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Examples</h3>
<pre><code><div class="loop-navigation">
    <div class="alignleft"><?php c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link(); ?></div>
    <div class="alignright"><?php c2c_next_or_loop_post_link(); ?></div>
</div><h3>Hooks</h3>
</code></pre>
<p>The plugin is further customizable via eleven hooks. Typically, code making use of hooks should ideally be put into a mu-plugin, a site-specific plugin (which is beyond the scope of this readme to explain), or in theme template files. Many of these filters are likely only of interest to advanced users able to code.</p>
<p><strong>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link_output, c2c_next_or_loop_post_link_output (filters)</strong></p>
<p>The ‘c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link_output’ and ‘c2c_next_or_loop_post_link_output’ filters allow you to customize the link markup generated for previous and next looping links, respectively.</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>$format         (string):       Link anchor format.</li>
<li>$link           (string):       Link permalink format.</li>
<li>$in_same_term   (bool):         Optional. Whether link should be in a same taxonomy term. Default is false.</li>
<li>$excluded_terms (array|string): Optional. Array or comma-separated list of excluded term IDs. Default is ”.</li>
<li>$previous       (bool):         Optional. Whether to display link to previous or next post. Default is true.</li>
<li>$taxonomy       (string):       Optional. Taxonomy, if $in_same_term is true. Default ‘category’.</li>
<li>$adjacent       (string):       Whether the post is previous or next.</li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>  <?php
      // Prepend "Prev:" to previous link markup.
      function my_custom_previous_or_loop_link_output( $output, $format, $link, $post, $in_same_term, $excluded_terms, $taxonomy ) {
        return 'Prev: ' . $output;
      }
      add_filter( 'c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link_output', 'my_custom_previous_or_loop_link_output', 10, 4 );
    ?>
</code></pre>
<p><strong>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link_get, c2c_next_or_loop_post_link_get (filters)</strong></p>
<p>The ‘c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link_get’ and ‘c2c_next_or_loop_post_link_get’ filters allow you to customize the link markups generated for previous and next looping links, respectively, but in the non-echoing functions.</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>$output         (string):       The adjacent post link.</li>
<li>$format         (string):       Link anchor format.</li>
<li>$link           (string):       Link permalink format.</li>
<li>$post           (WP_Post):      The adjacent post.</li>
<li>$in_same_term   (bool):         Optional. Whether link should be in a same taxonomy term. Default is false.</li>
<li>$excluded_terms (array|string): Optional. Array or comma-separated list of excluded term IDs. Default is ”.</li>
<li>$previous       (bool):         Optional. Whether to display link to previous or next post. Default is true.</li>
<li>$taxonomy       (string):       Optional. Taxonomy, if $in_same_term is true. Default ‘category’.</li>
<li>$adjacent       (string):       Whether the post is previous or next.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link, c2c_next_or_loop_post_link, c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post_link, c2c_get_next_or_loop_post_link, c2c_get_adjacent_or_loop_post, c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post, c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post (actions)</strong></p>
<p>The ‘c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link’ and ‘c2c_next_or_loop_post_link’ actions allow you to use an alternative approach to safely invoke <code>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link()</code> and <code>c2c_next_or_loop_post_link()</code>, respectively, in such a way that if the plugin were deactivated or deleted, then your calls to the functions won’t cause errors in your site. The ‘c2c_get_previous_or_loop_post_link’ and ‘c2c_get_next_or_loop_post_link’ filters do the same for the non-echoing <code>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link()</code> and <code>c2c_next_or_loop_post_link()</code>.</p>
<p>Arguments:</p>
<ul>
<li>Same as for for <code>c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link()</code> and <code>c2c_next_or_loop_post_link()</code></li>
</ul>
<p>Example:</p>
<p>Instead of:</p>
<pre><code><?php c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link( '<span class="prev-or-loop-link">&laquo; %link</span>' ); ?>
</code></pre>
<p>Do:</p>
<pre><code><?php do_action( 'c2c_previous_or_loop_post_link', '<span class="prev-or-loop-link">&laquo; %link</span>' ); ?>
</code></pre>
