Related content plugin. PlatformPro

[gisela01 0]

Hi. I just installed the "Related" plugin. They say:

"To display the related posts, simply add:

<?php echo $related->show(get_the_ID()); ?>

to your template, inside the WordPress loop"

I'm new at this and haven't found a way to do this... Any help please? Thanks

Hi Gisela! First know what the loop is so you can recognize it in the template.postloop.php file. http://codex.wordpress.org/The_Loop Then copy that file from platformpro to platformbase and add that php code where ever you want *inside* the loop. Ricardo

Hi Ricardo. Thanks for your answer. I recognized the loop and identified the Post and Page Content. I placed the line

<?php echo $related->show(get_the_ID()); ?>

but the single post page wont display what I expected. In fact, once I paste the code line, The right columns, the share icons, comments, etc. disappear Thanks again

Do you have a link..you may be breaking the html of the page?

Hi Adam, I had to edit the plugin code a bit. This is what we placed inside the loop (both posts lists and single post page) and it works great

 <?php
	 the_excerpt();
	 global $related;
	 echo $related->show(get_the_ID());
	 ?>  

Thanks!
