you rock rock rock !

this looks great. Two questions:
1. Can this be used in the php widget sidebar?
2. Can you specify that you want to show posts from only the current category?
thanks

Hi Jeff.

1. I must first test.
2. If a post appears, it will automatically use the current category.

It seems to work in the PHP exec widget

Is it possible to display image links instead of text links with this plugin?
My website is very image oriented so it would be much handier if I could somehow display the first image of the post instead of a text link.

leverpostei, not yet, I write it for me later.

When I use this with the PHP exec widget, it does not output the properly nested

link

structure. It is missing the and . The plugin is fairly easy to add those in, but I thought I would update you. Thanks.

The form stripped out the email. What I meant to say was that using the php exec widget, the plugin doesn’t add the nested “ul” tags for the list.

I look at this.

Thanks very much for this wonderful plugin. Love the options.

parametres for category id??

Very nice plugin! But I also want to show the post that’s allready showing. Just so that it is in the list. Too bad this only shows related posts and not the post itself.

Is there a way to to this?

hello,
I could not find the file single.php
can you tell me where this file is. I’m using guru-theme

Thanks

great plugin

how do you change the font size and put a title for the related posts?

thanks

Hi, I have a blog about music, therefore my posts are all cateogorized, but they all differ from one another.

I mean, under the category “Jazz” “Pop” “Rock”, all posts talk about jazz, pop, rock,… but about different records and artists.

I would like the plugin to do what its name says: related posts by category, no matter what they talk about. If a person comes to my website using a search engine, chances are that the other post in the same category may interest them as well…

Could this be achieved with this plugin or should I look somewhere else? (I’ve installed it and no related posts show)

Regards and thanks for your time and effort

How to display the last posts from the parent category. For example:
I have the main category Sports with subcategory: tennis, footbal, basketball, etc
If my last article in category Sports is asigned to subcategory Tennis, then the plugin will show my last 5(or any other number of posts) from Tennis category.
All i want is that the plugin to show my last 5 from the parent category: Sports and not to show my last 5 from tennis.
How to make this?
You can see the plugin in action here: http://www.shtiri.ro
Thanks in advance!

@Tcmo6
I implement your request in the next update.

Thanks man. i am waiting for that.

Will you be adding exclude?, the ability to remove a list of cats would be great.

Great idea – I was just looking for this functionality. I have already added to two websites.

I have tested in a couple of categories, it was working fine. But today, I noticed, it also list posts from categories other than the current one.

The posts that is being listed under a different category looks to have some relation with the current category – either it contains the exact current category keyword(description of the category) as part of the content or as a tag. (Each post only belongs to one category)

I was going to add the plugin to more sites but will wait now if it could be solved. Hope you can have a look to this problem.

Thanks

Related posts by category shown in random order is exactly what I’m looking for my blog. Thanks a lot!! =)

I use my wordpress to build my online store where I sell my hand knit hats (made by me) and I was looking for a plugin that could display a link to all of the items in my shop on each single page article. I easily accomplished this with your plugin simply by adding a new category (made by david) and assigning that to each item in my shop. I now have a convenient list of all items listed on each page thanks to your plugin. Thank you so much for creating it.

Fantastic plug-in, thank you very much!

I just have one query. I am using private posts on my site, do you have any idea on how I would modify the plug-in so that it finds and displays these posts to authorised users? Currently the plug-in doesn’t seem to recognise any private posts. I’ve found the following links which I thought would help, but I’ve still not been able to get it to work with the plug-in…

Many thanks!

Great plugin. big thanks to Sergej Müller

Hi,
Can you add one title option to this awesome plugin. for example,
You’d like to see (the title I want)
blah blah blah

How can I do to include thumbnail image for each link ?

Thank you

Yes, in comming version.

Ok, thank you for immediate reply !

Hi,

It works great, i got a lot more pageviews after installed

Great plugin! Thank you so far! :)

My goal is to include only posts that are older than the current, so internal linking would work static. Currently even old articles show links to the newests posts.

Is it possible to configure this? Or is an update in work? I think it would very great if that was possible!

hi–can you use this for displaying posts from categories bound to the current user: i.e how would you factor in a user_id where that is tied to a particulapr post and display only those posts relevant to the current user?

thks

Sam

tnx a lot

Hello,

First and foremost this is an excellent idea! I love the concept. I am however not able to get it working! I’d like to have it work in my right hand sidebar and have not certain exactly which code to put. The long list starting with UL or the single line of PHP mentioned above. And in the “single.php” file, I’m not sure where to put it.

Any assistance is appreciated!

Thank you,
Rocky

Super Plugin, vielen Dank dafür. :-)

Gruss

How should I make this plugin active ? I activated is, but it isn´t working…

Please put <?php new RPBC(array(params)) ?> in your single.php template for display a list of similar posts. See “Mode of operation” below.

Hi,
I really like this plugin, it’s the best one for related posts, but is there a way to add also the posts’ date near their titles?
Thanks in advance

@elena
Not yet feasible. Must be first programmed.

I copied the HTML above (
‘post_date’,
‘order’ => ‘DESC’,
‘limit’ => 5,
‘echo’ => true,
‘before’ => ”,
‘inside’ => ‘» ‘,
‘outside’ => ”,
‘after’ => ”,
‘rel’ => ‘nofollow’,
‘type’ => ‘post’,
‘image’ => array(50, 50),
‘message’ => ‘no matches’
)
);
} ?>

into my single posts.php. It does make recent posts show up, but with no title like “Check out these recent posts” and the thumbnail images & text are hard left justified with tiny text and tiny bullet points. How do you add a title, increase the small text, and maybe center the whole list?

Hi Sergej, thanks for this plugin.

My question is : why is my site displaying a double style type?
One is the » and the other is a dark circle.
I hope you don’t mind to check my website, the url is in my comment’s website field

Nevermind I got it work by adding this in css = ul {list-style:none;}

Happy New Year!

works perfectly with my theme ,thnx for this and please make more plugin like these!!
