older
From Textpattern CMS User Documentation
<txp:older>
The older tag is both a single tag and a container tag. Should be used in a page after an article tag.
Textpattern will replace this tag with a link to the next list of articles in the sort order. The container tags wrap the text or tag assigned to the link. As a single tag it outputs the URL for the previous list page.
An article list consists of the assigned number of articles set by the article tag. If there are no articles available having Older status (articles ranked lower, or later, in the present sort criteria than the present bottom of page article) <txp:older> will not display unless the showalways attribute is set to 1. It is normally seen used in tandem with newer.
Given a <txp:article limit="5" /> tag on the page in question <txp:older> will page down five articles at a time from the most recent post back in time to the oldest.
