Title:
Helpful text when there are no earlier entries
Area:
entries
Summary:
We should have some indication of why there is no "previous" link when paging back through recent entries or the reading page
Description:
This comes up fairly regularly in Support, where someone is confused because they can no longer go to previous entries on their read page.
I think we should cut down most of the confusion by adding text on the last page to the effect that:
* read page : You cannot view earlier entries ( because of 14 days / x entries limitation blah blah OR link to an FAQ or something )
* recent entries page: You cannot go back ( because of x entries limitation blah blah OR link to an FAQ ). Try using the per-date archives [link] to see any earlier entries
This suggestion:
Should be implemented as-is.
