Two simple functions for getting the ID of next and previous pages (not posts) in Wordpress. Forked from the "Next Page, Not Next Post" plugin by Matt McInvale. http://wordpress.org/plugins/next-page-not-next-post/

README.md

Functions

Next Page: next_page_ID($id) Previous Page: previous_page_ID($id)

$id: The ID of the page you're trying to get the next or previous page for.

Examples

$next_ID = next_page_ID('41);
$previous_ID = previous_page_ID('41);
$next_url = get_permalink($next_ID);

echo '<a href="' . $next_url . '">Next Page</a>';

Hi could you please help me. I have tried to use a code to do next and previous with shortcodes in function but the ID order of page is not followed...
Could you please tell me how to

1. amend my code to use it with ID order of same category
   or
2. Use your code but with image and category
   Thank you so much for your help. I think it because I used Elementor in wordpress that it messed things up :(
