Pagination : Rel next and prev completely buggy

[ben74]

Hello,

I really, really hope I'm wrong on this one...

I just moved to Genesis and it seems like the way rel="next" / rel="prev" is handled for a paginated page (i.e. a real page with "<!--nextpage-->" inserted in the editor) is 100% plain wrong !!!

1) First of all, there is only rel="next" inserted in the head tags... not a single rel="prev", even when a previous page does exist... (???)

2) Let's say you have your page with 2 "<!--nextpage-->", so you have 3 parts :
domain.com/my-page
domain.com/my-page/2
domain.com/my-page/3
On the second page the rel="next" should indicate "domain.com/my-page/3"... but right now it links to the HOMEPAGE !!!

This is completely WRONG and doesn't at all follow Google guidelines :

Please fix this ASAP, right now I can't use this Theme with such enormous bugs.

By the way you need to have your pagination fixed from A to Z as you have other bugs, example the canonical tag of the page :

domain.com/my-page/2

should be :

domain.com/my-page/2

and not :

domain.com/my-page

as it's currently the case !!!
