[Plugin: Yet Another Related Posts Plugin] Use 2 times related_posts (); in the single.php longer wo

YARPP 3.4 actually made this type of coding simpler:

related_posts(get_the_ID(), array('exclude' => array('category' => 1)))

Let me know if that works for you.

Thank you for responding, unfortunately still no new version works with the code that you placed

Warning: Can not use a scalar value as an array in / wp-content/plugins/yet-another-related-posts-plugin/related-functions.php on line 34
No related posts found

Sorry sorry, I got the order of arguments wrong. related_posts(array('exclude' => array('category' => 1)))

With the code you placed I get this error

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class ‘YARPP_Cache_Bypass’ does not have a method ‘join_filter’ in /wp-includes/plugin.php on line 227

Below that shows me the list of related posts but if I call 2 times the function “related_posts()” in the single.php shows me 2 times the same list

example:

related_posts (array ('exclude' => array ('category' => 1)));

Excluding the category 1

• Post 1 Excluding category 1
• Post 2 Excluding category 1
• Post 3 Excluding category 1

related_posts (array ('exclude' => array ('category' => 10)));

Excluding the category 10

• Post 1 Excluding category 1
• Post 2 Excluding category 1
• Post 3 Excluding category 1

However in version 3.3 if I showed two different lists

Sorry, that’s a bug in 3.4… it’s fixed in 3.4.1b2:

(wait a few minutes for this link to work)

I have the same problem and 3.4.1b3 does not change this problem

Ah, I was able to identify the bug in the exclude code in YARPP 3.4. Here’s beta 4 which I believe fixes the issue. Please test. Thank you!

It’n not work.
the problem appears when I want to customize the posts related with :

if (function_exists(‘related_posts’)) echo related_posts();

in addition to this version of Yarpp slowed my site, it takes more than 20 seconds for a news appears

@marco first, there’s no need to echo relatd_posts()… just call related_posts(). Can you post exactly which customizations you’re using? Also, are all pages slow or just when you do certain things?

only within articles (single.php)

I re-installed version 3.3.3, and everything is back to normal : the site is again fast

Okay, @ciberwolf, I would appreciate it if YARPP 3.4.1b4 fixes your issues.

— never mind this. WP just pulled the 3.4.1 update and seems to be fixed, I think —

I think I may know what Marco is talking about.

<?php related_posts(); ?>

is supposed to call the list of related posts depending on your YARP options (whether you want to take into account post titles, or content, tags, etc).

After the update, these options don’t seem to matter because all posts seems to have a very high threshold number. A 100 mark was usual when loads of tags match, but 20-10s were more usual. With the new version, all the posts that get listed with the related_posts code are ranging between 200-130 so no posts are actually related.

It doesn’t matter which post you’re in, all the related posts are the same. There doesn’t seem to be any plugin clash either.

Still does not work I pass the parameters to the function and shows me the same list of related posts 2 times and in some posts I said there was no related posts

related_posts (array ('exclude' => array ('category' => 10)));
related_posts (array ('exclude' => array ('category' => 1)));

But the version 3.3 installed and everything works like a charm :S

@ciberwolf, I’m not able to reproduce that issue in YARPP 3.4.1. ‘exclude’ with the syntax you specified is working for me.

@siutouamy yes, there was a bug in 3.4 which messed up the shared taxonomy item computation… this is fixed in 3.4.1. Is that what you’re reporting?

The version 3.4.2 if I work, thanks
