[Support request] Displaying related posts?

[Tharindu]

Hello,

Thank you for the great theme and support.

Just wondering how you can display related posted (filtered via tags). I tried jetpack but it’s not doing a very good job. Please guide me in the right direction.

Thank you. 🙂

You’d need to find a plugin. You could try WP Show Posts: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-show-posts/

It lets you show posts by categories or tags – but it doesn’t display related posts to the current post automatically.

I am already using wp-show-posts. But would like to use an automatic related posts plugin if I can. 🙁 I tried using custom side bar plugin but it’s too conflicting with my site.

Hmm, I’m not too sure of any off the top of my head. But here is a list of a few that might be helpful: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/5-best-related-posts-plugins-for-wordpress/

Has this changed since 2016? Is there a way to add related blog posts at the end of a blog post? It seems like an easy add based on categories/tags.

A plugin is still the best way to accomplish something like this.

Can you indicate plugin name

Hi there,

i use the WP Show Posts plugin and a custom function to hook the related posts in. I used it in the Merch site – this post explains how (under Related Posts heading ) and shows the output at the end of the posts.

Hello David Sir

thanks for replying can you tell me any easiest way for that because I have no knowledge of about related to web design/ developer.

The link David provided actually show you how to do it if you read the How I made the Related Posts section.

The easiest way would definitely be the plugin method as Tom suggested.

We don’t have an official suggestion for this but maybe try this one?

There should be some other options and articles reviewing them too if you Google “related posts for WordPress”.

Thanks Leo
