+Hugo determines the _next_ and _previous_ page by sorting the site's collection of regular pages according to this sorting hierarchy:
+
+Field|Precedence|Sort direction
+:--|:--|:--
+[`weight`]|1|descending
+[`date`]|2|descending
+[`linkTitle`]|3|descending
+[`path`]|4|descending
+
+[`date`]: /methods/page/date/
+[`weight`]: /methods/page/weight/
+[`linkTitle`]: /methods/page/linktitle/
+[`path`]: /methods/page/path/
+
+The sorted page collection used to determine the _next_ and _previous_ page is independent of other page collections, which may lead to unexpected behavior.
+
+For example, with this content structure:
+
+```text
+content/
+├── pages/
+│ ├── _index.md
+│ ├── page-1.md <-- front matter: weight = 10
+│ ├── page-2.md <-- front matter: weight = 20
+│ └── page-3.md <-- front matter: weight = 30
+└── _index.md
+```
+
+And these templates:
+
+{{< code file=layouts/_default/list.html >}}
+{{ range .Pages.ByWeight }}
+ <h2><a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">{{ .LinkTitle }}</a></h2>
+{{ end }}
+{{< /code >}}
+
+{{< code file=layouts/_default/single.html >}}

+{{ end }}
+
+{{ with .Next }}
+ <a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">Next</a>
+{{ end }}
+{{< /code >}}
+
+When you visit page-2:
+
+- The `Prev` method points to page-3
+- The `Next` method points to page-1
+
+To reverse the meaning of _next_ and _previous_ you can change the sort direction in your [site configuration], or use the [`Next`] and [`Prev`] methods on a `Pages` object for more flexibility.

+
+Code defensively by checking for page existence:

+```go-html-template

+ <a href="{{ .RelPermalink }}">Next</a>
