    Hi!
    I’m loving to discover what this plugin can do. thanks!

    I’m experimenting with the shortcode since my coding knowledge is very limited (practically none) and some of the functions give no results:

    1. When adding [related_posts_by_tax format=”thumbnails” image_size=”medium” posts_per_page=”4″ title=”Quero Mais!” taxonomies=”Ciência”], which is one of the categories there are in common between the present post and other related posts, it displays nothing (blank)

    2. Extra question: What’s the simplest way for making the titles under the thumbnails also responsive (clickable)? Using the shortcode?

    thanks for offering so many possibilities with this plugin.
    rod, on my localhost for now

    Hi patternreplicas

    Is “Ciência” a custom taxonomy you (a plugin/theme) registered, or is it a term from a taxonomy?

    You need the taxonomy name by which it is registered. The Name should only contain lowercase letters and the underscore character.

    Can you post a link to your site?

    Hi! I’m so glad you’re there.
    I’m creating the site in my localhost, so I can’t share it except with PrtSc.

    As my coding skills aren’t good yet and I’m unsure about venturing into creating a child-theme, I’m considering creating a post default so it adds automatically the short-code at the end of every post; but also because I plan to add another shortcode below that one, that would display non-related posts. I couldn’t manage to do that with the shortcodes, because I couldn’t go far in experimenting with the taxonomies. Is it possible? Or we can only show related posts?

    “ciência” is a term I have chosen as a category when I created the post. I see the slug is “ciencia” and it didn’t work in the shortcode either.

    I managed to make the title as <h3>. It results well in the post, despite that it readjusts itself in the text and visual tabs.

    Thanks for your guidelines on how to make the titles below the thumbnails clicable. I like the display of this plugin and I saw a lot of them already! Thank you!

    Hi!
    I managed to use the include_terms and related=”false” attributes in order to display unrelated posts. So I guess this may work even better than the taxonomies attribute. If that’s the case, don’t bother with the question above.
    So I’ll aim at using this plugin’s shortcode twice in each post in order to display related posts + unrelated posts below. 2 in 1 ??

    So ciência” is a term.

    Use taxonomies="category" or use the include_terms parameter.

    Did you figure this out or are you having problems with this?

    Thanks!

    I used the include_terms parameter. And that’s how I managed to use 2 short-codes, one for related posts and one for unrelated posts.
