Description

I had trouble customizing the_posts_navigation() with arguments described in the Code Reference.

At link-template.php line 2299, there is the following.

		$next_link = get_previous_posts_link( $args['next_text'] );
		$prev_link = get_next_posts_link( $args['prev_text'] );

It appears that get_previous_posts_link and get_next_posts_link seem to be mixed up.

The naming of get_previous_posts_link() and get_next_posts_link() is a bit confusing in the context of this template tag.

get_next_posts_link() will return a link to the page of older (previous) posts , while get_previous_posts_link() will return a link to the page of newer (next) posts published after where you are in tim.

Does that make sense?

So prev_text is for the link to the posts previous to the list of posts you currently see.
