custom pagers

Joined: 08/03/2009

so, there is an EXTREMELY well-worded tutorial on custom pagers, etc (granted, it's specifically geared for a web-comic, but it's still awesome) over here

i followed this 3 times, even going so far as to just literally use the terms he was using ("comicname" and such for all of the fields, node types, etc) on try 3.

and no matter what i do, i cannot get custom pagers to show up.

i have the recommended version. i've tried switching between themes.

i dont understand. has anyone else faced this type of confusion?
