First “You Might Also be Interested In:” Below content now working
Hello, the “You Might Also be Interested In:” displaying recent or related content directly under the social buttons under the post content (as is advertised in the theme demo) is not working. The second one below the comments is working fine. At first, I thought that this might not be working because I did not have enough posts to populate it. I only have 7 posts right now. But then I was looking at a site in the showcase that uses the Magazine theme that has hundreds of posts. Theirs is not displaying either.
Is there a setting or something that I am missing?
Thank you,
Dave

Sorry, meant to say “Not Working” in the question title!
Hello, I am still waiting for a reply to this question. Does the Magazine theme no longer provide the “You might also be interested in” directly below the post content and above the comments section? It is advertised this way in the Magazine Theme demo.
Thank you,
Dave
Hello Dave,
An automated email is sent whenever this ticket gets updated. Please do check your spam folder.
The section – You might also be interested in is still present and comes from this code in single.php
<!– “Recent Posts Code” Start –>
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH.”/includes/recent-posts.php”);?>
<!– “Recent Posts Code” End –>
Please see if this is present on your site otherwise you can re-download the theme
Hello Dave,
I just checked the things again,
There are 2 sections named ” You might be interested in”
1st) Which comes Below Social Codes – These are Related Posts. You can change the title to Related Posts if you want
2nd ) Which comes Below Comments – These are Recent Posts minus top 4 posts displayed in the header.
The 1st section ” You might be interested in” comes if there are related posts to show. It works when it matches the tags between 2 or more posts. So try adding some similar tags to the posts and you will see this section coming.
Thank You
Ok, I thought that might be the case. I just looked at the file and see that it is calling tags for that. However, I do not use tags, (apparently why it was not working). Is there a simple way to replace tags with the current category? I don’t really want to go in and add tags just for the sole purpose of making this function work.
Hello,
Sorry, the related posts system work through tags only. You can also replace that code with the below recent posts code which comes after comment. So it will show 4 posts permanently and to make sure these 4 posts are not the same as 4 poss below comment, you can increase the offset limit from 4 to 8 in the code which is below the comments
Great idea, worked like a charm. Thank you,
