What would be really nice is a way to specify an order to certain nodes. So that those that are linked have a "next" and "previous" link that will go forwards or backwards in the list.

This would be really helpful for comics, webrings, and other areas.

Maybe this could be tied to the taxonomy system.

you almost get this with taxonomy. associate all nodes with a term. then view just that term. the nodes will come out in reverse chrono order (is there a way to use a weight system instead?). as for paging (next 10, previous 10, etc.) - see pager.inc which was recently sent to this list. hopefully paging will soon hit CVS.

we should work to get the missing pieces in place as this is valuable functionality.

with taxonomy and paging, this is now possible. if someone imagines a different need related to this, feel free to reopen this item.
