[Plugin: Yet Another Related Posts Plugin] No related posts

And me?

@jacklabel, was it ever working for you? Did you try @azselendor’s solution, to try updating a post? Does that work?

Recently, i have the same issue as mentioned before. The related posts disapeared when i upgraded YARPP from 3.0.9 to 3.0.11.

Version 2.1.6 works well, but it hasn’t templates in it.

PHP/MYSQL 5.0, WP 2.6.5, MyISAM on all tables, and not a single caching plugin. Updating posts don’t help, and i’ve seen that score column in yarpp cache table has only 0 in it (recaching doesn’t change it). The same 0-s was in the ID column.

Seems like the ploblem is more fundamental than in caching plugins…

@ahaenor are you using the automatic display? The related_posts() in the template? Widget?

are you using the automatic display? The related_posts() in the template? Widget?

The list template, without widget.

Hi Micho,

@jacklabel, was it ever working for you? Did you try @azselendor’s solution, to try updating a post? Does that work?

Yes, was working for me. Try editing the page? Yes, I tried. Did not work. And the problem is in all posts. Not just a few.

Please really need help. I want to continue using your plugin.

What should I do now?

I think the problem may be rooted in yarpp’s caching system. Can templating version without caching be? Or, at least, with option to turn caching out.

Many people here are telling that 2.1.6 works well, but it lack templates hardly.

Only IMHO, of course.

@ahaenor – the new templating system is built on the caching system. The vast majority of users seem to have no problems with the caching.

@jacklabel – I apologize but I can’t think of any other thing to check. You may just have to use another plugin.

I seem to be having some of the same problems. I am running a copy of my blog on my localhost, where yarpp works just fine. In the online version however, all id’s and scores in the yarpp_related_cache are 0.
my confiugrations:
local version (working):
mysql 5.0.51a
php 5.2.8
wordpress 2.8.4
yarpp 3.0.11

online version (not working):
mySQL 5.0.45
php 5.1.6
wordpress 2.8.4
yarpp 3.0.11

I only have a limited number of plugins installed; online the problem doesn’t change when I activate only the ones I have running in my local version;
– akismet
– del.icio.us for WordPress
– yarpp

@juaron – so it’s working on your local version but not the online one? What if you only activate those three plugins on the online version and rebuild the cache then?

@mitchoyoshitaka thanks for your reaction. I reaally appreciate it. I already tried to only activate the same plugins as in the local version. I’ve now also tried to deactivate all plugins but yarpp and to build te chache then. I always get the message that my cache status is ok, and when I rebuild the cache it tells me all went well. When I look at the values of the date field in the related_cache table, those do all change correctly when I do the update, so apparently the table is being updated, but maybe something goes wrong in calculating the relations?

I also tried downgrading to v2.6.1 (with all other plugins deactivated) with no effect.

By the way, the plugin used to work until some time ago, but I couldn’t tell what I changed before it stopped working ??

Same as Ahaenor. YARPP stopped working about version 3.08.

I reverted to 2.1.6 after reading this forum post and it works well. No caching plugin.

Perhaps a conflict with another plugin? I’ve got too many to list here.

OK, I have not been able to get this plugin to work, ever. I tried recent versions, and no luck.

I’m able to use Efficient Related Posts no problem.

Anyone?

No idea? We have several WordPress installations. I tried it on another one, at https://www.technightowl.com/newsletter/ Got the excerpt part to function, with horrible formatting (everything run together with no separation). But no listed of related posts. We’re not using a specially altered template, and I’m wondering if maybe trying it is a waste since support is clearly not very timely. ??

Peace,
Gene

After downloading the older version of YARPP that windows2000 posted, and using the custom options for the related_posts function, I was able to get it to work again.

Using the older version by itself didn’t work. I also deleted the tables the new version of YARPP creates, but I don’t know if that has any impact on whether or not it worked.

In my template I changed:

<?php related_posts(); ?>

to:

<?php related_posts(array('title'=>1,'body'=>1,'tags'=>1,'categories'=>3)); ?>

Obviously, if you’re using the automatically display related posts option, you’ll probably have to manually include the function in your template.

The weird thing is, when I try to tell the function to consider title, body or tags (using 2 or 3) the function breaks at goes back to displaying “No related posts.” The only array of options that works is ‘title’=>1,’body’=>1,’tags’=>1,’categories’=>3.
