This plugin is no longer available.
This plugin was born out of a necessity for a custom theme I was working on. For this particular theme, I needed to show text in the next and previous post navigation bar even if there wasn’t a next or previous post for the one you’re currently viewing. The standard WordPress template tags you would use in this case (next_post(), previous_post(), next_post_link(), and previous_post_link()) don’t offer this functionality, leaving you with nothing returned if there isn’t a post. This plugin changes that.
NOTE!!! This plugin only works (without a hack in your template) on single post pages.
Download: Post Links Redux

Initial release.

This would show “next post: Next Post Title” as a link if there was a post that came after the currently-viewed post, or “next post:” as plain text if the current post is the most recent.
