03 / Website use cases
Where to use public post series navigation
Courses, tutorials and long stories split across several posts lose readers between parts: WordPress's previous and next links follow the publish date, not the series, and readers cannot see how far along they are. Public post series navigation lets you put the parts in order once and shows, on every part, where the reader is, the whole series and links to the previous and next parts.
Long stories
Chapters across several posts.
Guides
Step-by-step series.

08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot public post series navigation
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is nothing shown?
This post is not one of the parts. The editor says so.
Why is a part missing?
It is a draft, private or password-protected.
How do I change the order?
Drag the parts in the list.
Do I add it to every post?
Use a single post template, or add it to each part.
Public post series navigation plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro?
Not when added to each post; a single post template needs a theme builder.
Can pages be parts?
Yes. Posts and pages can both be parts.
Is it accessible?
Yes. It is a named navigation landmark and the current part is marked.
Can I show only previous and next?
Yes. Choose Previous and next only.
Does it add a script?
No. The links are made on the server.
