# Next and Previous Posts Error

 * I host my blog on my ISP webspace and own a URL that points to this space. In
   Options I’ve set the WorpessURL to the ISP address and the Blog URL to the purchsed
   URL.
 * Everything appears to work fine except Next Entries and Previous Entries in the
   default theme (next_posts_link and previous_posts_link). These somehow append
   an extra word into the link and it fails.
 * e.g my ISP url is website/blog
    my purchased URL points to website blog with 
   the settings above in options “Previous Entries” links to website/blog/blog/
 * How do I change this behavious – Ive looked in vain for where next_posts_link
   gets it information from – I’m no perl expert either so keep it dead simple please.
 * Cheers,
    Matt

 * Just hit your site and I’m not seeing the problem you’re describing. Clicked 
   back through several pages without an error. Problem solved?

 * No, I’ve found that setting the Options -> Blog URL to the same as the WordPress
   URL fixes the problem (and I did this as a temporary fix) but I need the links
   to look like the purchased URL.
 * I’ve switched it back for now so you can see what I mean – please have another
   look.

 * I think I have been mis-using the WordPress URL and Blog URL parameters.
 * If I set the WordPress one to the purchased URL though, I loose all the graphical
   formatting 🙁 How do I get the links generated in my blog to reflect the purchased
   URL without paying for web hosting and without loosing the style formatting of
   the site?
 * (Or can’t this be done yet?)

 * I don’t think there is a solution. WP doesn’t work with this kind of redirects
   and tricky URis.
