Hi,

Previous to the latest update, everything was working fine. Related links (txt links) were being displayed.

Since the update, no matter what settings I change in the plugin, the txt links, are now being displayed as images boxes, which I do not want.

I’ve tried everything, to the point of turning off the limited number of plugin I use, and then turning each one on, to test if that makes any difference – unfortunately it doesn’t.

Please assist, thanks

Cheers

I would like to have CRP’s underneath pages which appear after clicking a highlighted tag in articles. e.g.

https://domain.com/tag/colombia/

I have not been able to find any option to insert CRP’s into this type of pages.

How can this be achieved?

Hello, I can’t save the “Location of the post thumbnail” field, after saving “Do not display thumbnails, only text” the checkbox returns to its original position.

Months ago, I noticed my very large site (over 370k posts) slowing down to a crawl, and then becoming unresponsive until the DB was restarted. I found #sql-temptable-*.MAD and .MAI files collecting in the tmp directory – it was a backlog of queries that the server couldn’t keep up with, as robots and users hit the site. Running mysql -e “show full processlist” | grep -v “Sending data” revealed this, and further diagnosis showed CRP was the WP plugin doing these expensive queries.

Disabling CRP as soon as the #sql-temptable files begin appearing, allows the DB to catch up, and doesn’t destroy performance. This is a very crude way of protecting the DB server from the CRP plugin – I would rather see the plugin monitor itself, and refuse to run the query if SHOW PROCESSLIST tells it there is a backlog of queries forming.

CRP is the best plugin of its kind in the “Related Posts” category. The query it runs seems essential to its success story – and so would a proactive check (as suggested) to assure it doesn’t take the DB server down in high-load periods. I’m sure any admin would rather see the plugin briefly/automatically stop listing Related Posts, and play it safe.

Thanks!

The plugin generates the elements <picture> containing <source>
inside <source> there should be a srcset attribute but it’s missing, this violates the HML5 specs:

checked with the HTML5 validator:

The email address that you sent the confirmation email is not active. the real one is [email protected] please fix it so i can try the addon and if good I’ll move to pro.

please send the rsespond also to the right address.

Hello:)

Thanks for the useful plugin!

Posts other than the ones selected in ‘Manual related posts:’ are also being displayed.

is it possible to display only the selected “Manual related posts” ??

Hi,

I am currently using the RankMath plugin, and I noticed that the title is displaying the placeholder {current year} instead of the actual year. Please check the screenshot – https://app.screencast.com/Zf7Jjk2RFcJyl

Please advise on how we can resolve this.

Hi,

I have been using your plugin for a while, and it seemed to work fine. The output is generated via a shortcode [crp show_excerpt=1 show_date=0] and manually added to certain posts.

Now on a recent post, I added the shortcode – and nothing was added. The output still worked on the other posts though. So in an attempt to fix it, I went to Tools > Related Post Tools and clicked on “Clear Cache” and “Recreate Indices”. The latter ran for a while – and after that, the output seemed to have disappeared on ALL posts.

After I toggled some of the settings, I managed to get the related posts back for some of the posts – but on others, the list is still empty.

Please help – what can I do to make it work again? Whenever I add this shortcode, a selection of 3 posts from the same category should be displayed.

Thanks,

Astrid

I inserted 3 manual related posts on the linked post. They did not show up, but instead display the CRP generated posts. I noticed this recently on another post. Seemed to correlate with latest update. (Ver. 3.5.3)

Hi,

I just installed Contextual Related Posts plugin. The related posts plugin works on my blogpost pages but not showing on the home and other subpages. In the general settings ”Automatically add related posts to” all boxes are enabled.

Why is my text gray? I’ve already tried a lot of CSS codes, but they don’t work. help me make it black?

Hi

I would like to propose a suggestion regarding the “Rounded Thumbnails” style. I have noticed that increasing the opacity of the black background behind the article titles in this style would significantly enhance readability. This adjustment could improve the user experience by making the text stand out more clearly.

Please consider reviewing this suggestion and implementing the necessary changes if feasible. Thank you in advance for your attention and cooperation.

Best regards

Hi! I’ve been using your plugin for quite a few years now and I love it! Thanks for developing it. Just recently, I noticed that text under the thumbnail sits out of alignment (vertically) with the thumbnail. I’ve tried adjusing the size of the thumbnail, but it hasn’t helped. Screenshot below.

Have I missed a setting somewhere where I can shift the text down from the thumbnail?

Thanks, Steve

Hi. I utilize the crp_list_link filter/hook in order to modify the output. I override the whole function because my output needs are siginificantly different from the default. Previously I could easily use functions made available by the plugin such as crp_link_attributes but these are now bound to classes and I’m unsure how to gain access to them. Any help appreciated.

hi,

I am fetching posts with the custom field with either word_count > 1000 or number_count > 1.

Very basic query.

Code below:

$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
  'posts_per_page' => 8,
    'meta_query'     => array(
    'relation' => 'OR',
    array(
        'key'     => 'word_count', 
        'value'   => 1000,
        'type'    => 'NUMERIC',
        'compare' => '>'
    ),
    array(
        'key'     => 'number_count', 
        'value'   => 1,
        'type'    => 'NUMERIC',
        'compare' => '>'
    ),
),
);

$posts = get_posts($args);  ## working as expected
$posts = get_crp_posts($args);  ## fetch 0 posts

get_posts() works as expected but get_crp_posts() fetches no posts, I been testing multiple times but canot fix it.

get_crp_posts() can work with only one meta_query condition but cannot handle OR relation.

Please have a look.

Hello!

I use your plugin via a shortcode in a layout template created in Avada Theme at the very end of each post.

The list of posts seems on most posts quite right, but on some posts no article is displayed.

What could cause this issue? I already tried deactivating the cache plugin, but that didn’t help.

I use a costum taxonomy for this, the related posts are coming from that custom taxonomy “Mitglieder”.

Thank you for any insight or idea!
Angie.

At the bottom of the page after the title ‘Gerelateerde artikelen:’ the 2 related posts are below each other. How can I put them next to each other? When I select to show 3 related posts, there are 2 next to each other and 1 below these 2.

Why don’t they give me a refund even if I send an email? Do you ignore some of them? If you do not properly refund, your behavior will be reviewed on the Internet. I am legitimately asking for a refund. Your program is English-based. I am on a Korean site. I would like a refund because your program does not work. Please refund me right away.

hi

I updated the Contextual Related Posts plugin to version 3.5.1. The new version offered the opportunity to opt in to receive email notifications for various issues.

Yesterday, I opted in and this message appeared on my blog: “Thanks! You should receive a confirmation email for Contextual Related Posts to your mailbox at ———.com Please make sure you click the button in that email to complete the opt-in.”

I have not received the confirmation email.

Hey, since the last update there is a warning popping up in /wp-admin/network (so only inside the network settings of a multisite, not inside the single subsites themselves):

Warning: Attempt to read property “settings_page” on null in?***/wp-content/plugins/contextual-related-posts/includes/admin/settings/class-settings.php?on line?1303

After upgrade to version 3.5, articles with the short code embedded do not load. When debugging, I see this error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 536870912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 266240 bytes) in?/wp-includes/functions.php?on line?7191

There is no problem with the bottom load of the related articles, only with the short code.

Hello, After updating to the latest version of my news site (database 4,5 GB over 300.000 articles) the site was down after 2 minutes with 500 error and no memory for my dedicated server. I guess it has to do with json requests (I am not a programmer). I will need help to update and purchase the plugin.

I had to downgrade and recover the entire site to have it working as before.

Please advice.

Hello,

I’m a WordPress developer. I’m looking for a filter in this plugin that will allow me to specify exactly the ID of the posts that I want the plugin to return as related posts. Could you tell me if there is a filter like this and a brief code example? Thank you very much.

Can related products be posted as links on to posts?

Hi,

Thanks for the nice plugin and I am using it long since. Recently I have created a Multisite and everything is working fine. I use shortcode to display related posts and use manual related post or Keyword.

Currently Manual Post search or Keywords are working on the same blog/site but I need to display related posts from other network or subsite of Multisites.

Will you please help me to display Related Post from Network sites? I think it maybe fancy but it will help me a lot.

Thanks

I am trying to center the CRP shortcode output on some of our pages. I have tried CSS, a recommendation from another post, etc and it will not change from left justified.

Any thoughts from anyone would be appreciated. It is located about a quarter of the way down the page.

Hello, how to make similar posts match only by category but not by other factors.

They don’t want the titles or tags, only posts from the same category.

I currently have an exact match, I want less accurate because of the category as the only factor.
