			::Ugh... I didn't see that one coming. Um, for the Madan no Ou pages, I didn't account for the fact that some pages would put in a number like "08" instead of just "8". That's why the template's not auto-navigating--it's trying to look for the nonexistent page "Madan no Ou to Vanadis:Volume 8 Chapter 1", and so on. Gonna be a drag to get around...

			::Anyway, there ''is'' a solution for both of your problems--the same solution, and one that I appear to have forgotten to write into the usage section... There're two more arguments called '''forwardname''' and '''backname''', or '''fn''' and '''bn''' for short. As its name implies, it puts up a custom name for whatever the next link is going to be. For V8 Prologue of Madan no Ou, you would have to put in '''\|f=Volume_08_Chapter_1''' and then '''\|fn=Chapter 1'''. The same for your hypothetical Chapter1 page--you won't have to put in anything for the '''forward''' argument (assuming all goes well), you just have to put in '''\|fn=Chapter 1'''.

			::(As a side note, underscores ( _ ) always count as a space when used in links, so Chapter_1 and Chapter 1 is pretty much equivalent. Only time they'll actually be necessary is on external links, where you actually have to distinguish between the URL and the substitute text. Of course, they're good for readability too.)

	:Yeah, a few of the project-specific cases churned out headaches, some I can work around and others which might be more trouble than it's worth. As far as I can see there's nothing this can't solve yet, though. SAO's "Author Notes" was specifically built against, and stuff like Zero no Tsukaima's Volume1 Story1 Chapter1 would ''usually'' work with the auto-navigate function, and for the ones that don't, one can manually insert the designated page by inserting everything after the volume number (e.g. <code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>SimpleNav\|Story1 Chapter3\|Story2 Chapter1}}</code> for the Story1 Chapter4 page). As far as I know this ''should'' work with all pages. -[[User:AKAAkira\|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira\|talk]]) 00:51, 18 May 2013 (CDT)		:Yeah, a few of the project-specific cases churned out headaches, some I can work around and others which might be more trouble than it's worth.

			:I already accounted for the space between number and Volume/Chapter, actually, and used a <code>#replace</code> for those cases, so the above two examples are no problem. It's only estimated to get messy if there's no space ''between'' the volume and chapter, for example Volume1Chapter2. Or if Volume and Chapter aren't spelled out fully and correctly, with the right cases.
