I have just started out with Hexo (originally used Jekyll) and I am not a web developer (yet) so if the answer to my question is obvious, my apologies.

I'm working on a communal site for books, eg. Wattpad, Inkitt, Tapas, etc. and I want to know if there is a way to control which posts show up under the prev/next links. When someone is reading the chapter of a book, I want the next post link to be the next chapter of the same book. On Jekyll, I just followed the instructions in this post. How do I do this with Hexo/NexT? It seems like I would do about the same thing but I'm not sure.

There is a discussion about it: hexojs/hexo#2270

So, I would use this?

let target = post.next;
while (target.categories.data[0].name !== 'your_category' && target.next) {
  target = target.next;
}

I made a demo according to your needs: https://github.com/next-theme/books

Run

git clone https://github.com/next-theme/books
cd books
npm i
npx hexo s

Thanks!

I think that this theme will not work for what I want. It is an awesome theme though, thanks anyway!
