How can I link to next and previous article? about middleman-blog HOT 11 CLOSED

A screenshot isn't particularly helpful - what about some code? I use current_article.previous_article and current_article.next_article to do that type of linking all the time. An example:

.navigation
  .prevnav
    - prev_article = current_article.previous_article
    - if prev_article
      Previous:
      %a{ :rel => "prev", :href => prev_article.url }= prev_article.title
  .nextnav
    - next_article = current_article.next_article
    - if next_article
      Next:
      %a{ :rel => "next", :href => next_article.url }= next_article.title

@bhollis Next time I'll be better :)

Thank you very much! It worked like a charm. Here's the code I used using slim.

ul
  li.previous
    - prev_article = current_article.previous_article
    - if prev_article
      a href="#{prev_article.url}" rel="prev" title="Previous article: #{prev_article.title}" Previous
  li.next
    - next_article = current_article.next_article
    - if next_article
      a href="#{next_article.url}" rel="next" title="Next article: #{next_article.title}" Next

👍 this is great, exactly what I need, but it doesn't work: this is the error I get :

undefined method `previous_article' for nil:NilClass

what can I do ?
I use :
middleman 3.3.10
middleman-blog 3.5.3

current_article.previous_article is nil? Seems like you either don't have a previous article from the current one or you are not on an article detail page.

I am on the article page and I have a previous article from the current one. What I try to do is very simple just have homepage, with last article full, and at the end the title of the previous article (linked). and the article page would be exactly the same with the title(linked) at the bottom of the article before it.
I've put this code into my template article like this <%=current_article.previous_article%> and what it returns is just a #

so on a fresh install of middleman with the blog and all, I have this at the end of the layout.erb template, at the end of the page and It doesn't work I get syntax error...

  <ul>
    <li>
      <% prev_article = current_article.previous_article %>
        <% if prev_article %>
        <a href="#{prev_article.url}" rel="prev" title="Previous article: #{prev_article.title}"> Previous </a>
    </li>
    <li>
      <% next_article = current_article.next_article %>
        <% if next_article %>
        <a href="#{next_article.url}" rel="next" title="Next article: #{next_article.title}"> Next </a>
    </li>
  </ul>

thank you, but still doesn't work, on the article page this code generates a "next" link and when I click it I see this http://localhost:4567/2015/03/26/flowers-are-blue/#{next_article.url} in chrome address bar. and nothing else happens: see screenshot : http://cl.ly/image/2j3F282g3O2z

This no longer seems to work with Middleman 4. Any updates?
