Is it possible to use WP Show Posts to show related posts like in the attached image.. (maintly the image not below or above the title but left aligned). thanks https://imgur.com/ATPPRSw
Hi there,
It's possible to left-align the featured image in the WPSP settings, but it's not easy to set the posts as "related" by default. How would the related posts be defined? Same category as the post being viewed?
Yes i am showing these as related based on category which is not a genius way because ideally there should be some relation based on keywords in the title.May be something that can be worked on in next releases.
But my problem right now is that the image alignment is only below or above title. There is no option for showing the image left aligned the title and excerpt..
There isn't any related posts logic as of right now, unfortunately.
For the image alignment, have you tried this option?: https://www.screencast.com/t/Xn8cc5QT

Any chance you can link me to that page?
I have edited the original post and added link to page. Thanks.
Can you double-check that the list is set to align left? The code is saying it's set to align center: https://www.screencast.com/t/Ni23w0TyT
Maybe it's a different list?
Hi. thanks it works...Right now its just a listing of latest posts.. i would like these to be based on some related algorithm. if that requires a lot of work and not on your feature list, then at least there should be an option to show random posts from within the category.. May be even the option to mix posts on latest date and randomness within the category/taxonomy.
It's only possible to query posts based on the current category with our PHP function for now: https://wpshowposts.com/support/topic/carousel-to-replace-prev-next/#post-8999
Then you can tell the list to display posts in random order using the list settings.
