'Next Post' and 'Previous Post' appear out of nowhere?

    I am working with the portfolio theme and have a static front page (home). On the front page you just see rows of pictures/posts with no title that you can click on to see a gallery. When I refresh the front page or I leave a gallery with the 'going back' arrow to get back to the front page, some of the pictures/posts on the front page suddenly have a title saying, 'Next Post' or 'Previous Post'.
    When I delete them, the front page is clear again. After I refsh the front page or go back to it via the arrow, it happens again, why?
    Don't know what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks!

    The blog I need help with is franziskaloeding.wordpress.com.

    Hey there,

    I've taken a look at your blog, and I'm not currently able to reproduce this issue with Safari. Can you please take a screenshot of what you're seeing?

    Cheers,
    P.

    Hey there,
    thanks very much for helping!
    Screenshot might take a little as I do not quite know how to do it, must ask tonight... :-)
    I also get the ´Next Postand ´Previous Post on my I pad though...and in Firefox...does that help?
    Also if you click on a picture and afterwards go back to home via the arrows, or refresh the page or click on ´HOME` ...always happens :(
    Thanx, Franziska

    Hey there,

    I'm not able to reproduce your problem in Firefox or on iPad.

    We have a guide to taking a screenshot located here:

    It's quite simple--just follow the steps and you should be good to go. If you have any problems following them, please let me know where you get caught and I'll be happy to help.

    Best,

    If I wait a while and then refresh the page again, it´s all gone.

    Hey there,

    After several more tries, I've reproduced the problem.

    The strings that are appearing are the titles of the posts you've created. If you head to the "Posts" page in your dashboard, you'll see several posts named "Next Post" and "Previous Post". If you remove these titles, this output will disappear.

    Best,
    P.

    Thanks again!

    Only I have never created those titles, they just appear out of nowhere.
    After I delete them, they reappear after a while.
    I have already deleted those titles several times...
    But without success, they keep reappearing.

    Greetings from Franziska

    Hey there,

    It looks like the posts no longer have an associated title, and that refreshing doesn't cause the issue that appeared earlier. Further, the blog's log doesn't seem to indicate any out of place edits or additions.

    Can you let me know if everything is cooperating fully for you now?

    Best,
    P.

    Unfortunately it´s still happening.
    when you open one of the pictures/posts, look around in it and go back via arrows or via ´HOME` you get it again. First one and whilst looking around, more appear again :(

    Thanx, Franziska

    Could it be that this premium theme is not designed for the display of posts that have no titles? Have you posted to the Premium Themes Support forum to get help form the theme designer?

    Read-access to the premium themes forum is now open to all users so you can search to see if your question has been previously asked and answered there. The premium theme forums are at http://premium-themes.forums.wordpress.com/ with separate sections for each theme.
    http://premium-themes.forums.wordpress.com/portfolio/

    If you are not successful when searching there is a link for the specific Premium Theme support forum for your theme under Appearance -> Themes in your blog’s Dashboard, but do note that the premium theme must be active and you must be signed in as the user who purchased it in order to see it and post to it.

    Good question, thank you!
    I wondered that myself already but didn´t follow that idea yet.
    I will look into that tomorrow as it is now getting late here in Amsterdam...
    Thanks for showing me the premium-themes.forums, I did not know them either.

    Thanks again,
    Franziska
