1280758 - Readability strips out links for previous/next page on faz.net

Status: NEW

(Toolkit :: Reader Mode, enhancement, P3)

Hi,

unfortunately, there are no links (buttons) for the next or previous page in Reader View.

If you want to go to the next page to continue reading, you have to close the Reader View, then click on the link for the next page in normal view and change back to Reader View. Reader View makes reading more complicated than easier. This should be changed or the Reader View feature is useless - at least for me.

Regards,
Ettore

I have the same problem on fanfiction.net (which kind of sucks, because the multi-page stories are there more norm than an exception).

However, I thought, whether it would not be a good idea to support in the View Reader mode <link rel="next"> and <link rel="prev"> relations with some kind of UI, and then we could start lobby for introduction of these tags on appropriate websites.
