I just installed Drupal as the base software for my new webcomic. I used t his tutorial to get most of it up and running:
http://www.robhamm.com/tutorials-and-essays/website-building-and-adminis...
My only real problem is that the pager (ye old next, previous, etc) is applying not only to the comic pages, but to everything (for example, the bio page).
To facilitate the webcomic I created a Comic Page content type. I then created a comicnav_view View so that all my Comic Page type pieces of content could be grouped into that view. It's that view to which I attached the pager to love through pages of the comic.
So, in theory, if I create a Story or a Page, they should not (I think) be included, but that is not the case (feel free to check out anivair.com/sevenroses for evidence of that). I'm not sure what it is I am doing wrong. I know that the changes I make to comiv_nav view (insofar as views go) seem to be applying to the default view (that is everything except the "Page Settings". my page technically defaults to ~/view, so that leads me to believe that only the stuff from comicnav_view (where I have the ~/view set as the default page) should be shoring up. I also have ~/view set as my default front page in Site Information, but I still don't see any reason that means that the comicnav)view should pick up anything except comic pages.
Can anyone be of any assistance here?

This actually sounds like the book module (in the drupal core) might be more appropriate, if all you're doing is wanting to have navigation through a set of nodes.

I do have a filter. it filters published nodes with the Taxonomy: Term category for that type of page.
Honestly, that's the only part I'm fuzzy on. My Taxonomy setup didn't flow 100% like the one in the tutorial (nor will it ever, since it's got a slightly different prompt).

Patched. It seems that my view didn't like the Taxonomy: term, so I based it on pages with a comic_image data type instead and pop! It works fine now. My drupal-fu was a bit rusty for a day or so (having not used it for a year or so) but I'm back on track now.
