Description

Problem

Site owners using Neve cannot customize the default link text labels ("Next" / "Previous") rendered in the single post navigation section. Currently, altering these labels requires custom PHP filters or child theme overrides.

Desired Behavior

Provide customizer input fields under Appearance > Customize > Blog > Single Post (Post Navigation section) allowing site owners to define custom text for the Next Post and Previous Post navigation controls.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Text input settings for 'Previous Post Label' and 'Next Post Label' are available in Customizer under Single Post options.
  • Defaults remain 'Previous' and 'Next' (or theme defaults) when left empty.
  • Custom string inputs are safely sanitized and translated/rendered in place of default navigation labels on single post templates.

Customer Context

A Neve Pro customer on a Personal Yearly plan wants to change the default post navigation button text on single blog posts from 'Next' and 'Previous' to 'Next Post' and 'Previous Post' without editing PHP code.

Root Cause Analysis

The customer needs to modify the single post navigation link text from default 'Next'/'Previous' to custom labels ('Next Post'/'Previous Post'). Currently, Neve's single post options (Appearance > Customize > Blog > Single Post) offer layout control and element reordering, but lack setting fields to customize post navigation labels without custom code or translation overrides.

Reasoning

The customer wants to customize the static labels ("Next" and "Previous") used in the single post navigation links in Neve to say "Next Post" and "Previous Post". Currently, Neve does not provide customizer settings or options in Single Post controls to edit these navigation text labels.
