Previous and Next Links

[elan42]

Hello,
I'm editing the template for a single custom post type, and trying to print the "previous" and "next" link within an Html structure, but the links get moved at the beginning of div.entry-content.

Inspector analysis doesn't show any absolute positioning or other weird layout settings.

This is the code:

function displayCFS() {
echo('
...
// Pagination
'<nav>'
. previous_post_link() . '<span>Index</span>' . next_post_link() .
'</nav>'
...
);

That "Index" word is correctly printed where it's supposed to be (after all the previous content), while the strings from previous_post_link() and next_post_link() are moved. I suppose it's a Genesis issue, as standard WordPress isn't supposed to behave this way?

Position depends on the hook you linked into and the priority. There's not enough detail to say what's happening.

The WordPress previous_post_link() and next_post_link() already echo the links, so by wrapping them in another echo, you're echoing an echo. This is the WordPress source for previous_post_link():

function previous_post_link( $format = '« %link', $link = '%title', $in_same_term = false, $excluded_terms = '', $taxonomy = 'category' ) {
    echo get_previous_post_link( $format, $link, $in_same_term, $excluded_terms, $taxonomy );
}

Genesis also has its own functions for displaying links. Your code is working outside of the framework. So whatever is going on, it's going to take a deeper level of troubleshooting than can be provided with the details you've provided.
