How to change useless Avada’s post navigation to more useful?

Hello

On post page Avada’s developers shows 100% useless post navigation:

Previous Next

Free template (Sparkling) on my existing site shows post names. How to change this in Avada? I found this function in free template here:

https://github.com/mattyribbo/Sparkling-PGKO/blob/master/inc/template-tags.php

I don’t know where is this function in files of free template on my site. Can’t find it in functions.php

function sparkling_post_nav() {	
	// Don't print empty markup if there's nowhere to navigate.
	$previous = ( is_attachment() ) ? get_post( get_post()->post_parent ) : get_adjacent_post( false, '', true );
	$next = get_adjacent_post( false, '', false );
	if ( ! $next && ! $previous ) {
	return;
	}
	?>
	<nav class="navigation post-navigation" role="navigation">
	<h1 class="screen-reader-text"><?php esc_html_e( 'Post navigation', 'sparkling' ); ?></h1>
	<div class="nav-links">
	<?php
	previous_post_link( '<div class="nav-previous">%link</div>', _x( '<i class="fa fa-chevron-left"></i> %title', 'Previous post link', 'sparkling' ) );
	next_post_link( '<div class="nav-next">%link</div>', _x( '%title <i class="fa fa-chevron-right"></i>', 'Next post link', 'sparkling' ) );
	?>
	</div><!-- .nav-links -->
	</nav><!-- .navigation -->
	<?php
	}
	endif;

I don’t know what means arguments like ‘sparkling’.

Hello @Pasha4ur

Every theme has its own design, what you see there is Avada’s design decision when it comes to navigation, we do not show post names on single post navigation but Previous / Next only.

Looks like this works correct

if ( ! function_exists( 'pasha4ur_post_nav' ) ) :
/**
 * Display navigation to next/previous post when applicable.
 *
 * @return void
 */
	function pasha4ur_post_nav() {
		// Don't print empty markup if there's nowhere to navigate.
		$previous = ( is_attachment() ) ? get_post( get_post()->post_parent ) : get_adjacent_post( false, '', true );
		$next     = get_adjacent_post( false, '', false );

		if ( ! $next && ! $previous ) {
			return;
		}
		?>
		<nav class="navigation post-navigation" role="navigation">
			<h1 class="screen-reader-text"><?php esc_html_e( 'Post navigation', 'default' ); ?></h1>
			<div class="nav-links">
				<?php
					previous_post_link('<span class="nav-previous">%link</span>', _x('%title', 'Previous post link'), true, '', 'category');
					next_post_link('<span class="nav-next">%link</span>', _x('%title', 'Next post link'), true, '', 'category');
				?>
			</div><!-- .nav-links -->
		</nav><!-- .navigation -->
		<?php
	}
endif;

This will work too. Replace the pagination in your child theme’s single.php with this.

<?php 
  $previous = get_previous_post();
  $next = get_next_post(); ?>
<?php 
  if ( $previous ) { ?>
    <?php 
      previous_post_link( '%link', esc_attr__( get_the_title( $previous ), 'Avada' )); ?>
  <?php } ?>
<?php 
  if ( $next ) { ?>
	<?php 
	  next_post_link( '%link', esc_attr__( get_the_title( $next ), 'Avada' )); ?>
  <?php } ?>

Thanks for helping the fellow community member 🙂

Hello @Pasha4ur

Glad to hear that you have found a workaround. We also have an item opened on this particular request and our developers will be looking to add an option in future if possible!
