  • Here’s a code I use in the single.php to show the thumbnails of other posts in the same category.
    Might help you started ??

    $category = get_the_category(); //get first current category ID
	$this_post = $post->ID; // get ID of current post
	$posts = get_posts('numberposts=500&orderby=rand&category=' . $category[0]->cat_ID . '&exclude=' . $this_post); ?>
	    <?php foreach($posts as $post) { ?>
	    <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>">
        <?php the_post_thumbnail( array(150, 150) ); ?>
        </a>
	    <?php } wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
      </div>
