ciao , io non riesco ad’eseguire la query di installazione e non trovo nel readme la spiegazione per poterla eseguire manualmente. Uso wp 2.3.1
Hey! Great plugin! I managed to get it work, but I am having photos from flickr in my posts, and it doesn’t work, would there be any wy to get it to work? Thanks a lot!
@Ruud: It seems to be an apache misconfiguration problem.
@ Loop: You can find the setup query, opening the related-post-thumbnail.php file. Look at line 47.
@Paul: Related post with thumbnail works only with local images.
Hi! Great plugin. How do I set it up like you have so that the thumbnail is on the left and the text on the right?
@Brandon: it’s a pure css hack.

Hi, I can’t seem to get the SQL part. It asks me for “related-posts.php” and I don’t have it (downloaded from your website). So what could be the problem?
Nice work Mick, I was wondering if there was a way to manually control the related posts?
Something weird happened where the images just stop showing up, no errors no nothing, I can’t even trace my steps backwards to think what I did wrong…
Ok thats weird, I just put back visual text editor, and it somehow works again…
Sorry for asking so many questions, so let me just consolidate everything.
Is it possible manually select post related? And how do you install the script on localhost, the scripts keeps saying that it can’t be found.
Very Cool. Gonna ake use of it now!

@gofree: I don’t know if it could work on WP2.5. Give me some days and I’ll reply you.
Stò rifacendo la grafica per la nuova versione del sito, ma il tuo plugin con 2.5 sembra non generare nessun output, qualche idea? Grazie.

Ciao dynamick, c’è un errore nel plugin, almeno l’ho scaricato e quando si esegue lo script dal pannello lancia
********************
/wp-content/plugins/related-posts.php?setup
********************
il plugin sta tutto dentro la cartella related-post-thumbnail quindi penso il link dovrebbe essere
********************
/wp-content/plugins/related-post-thumbnail/related-posts.php?setup
********************
e comunque il file si chiama related-post-thumbnail.php
ho provato a lanciare a mano
********************
/wp-content/plugins/related-post-thumbnail/related-post-thumbnail.php?setup
********************
in questo modo ci prova ma mi restituisce errore
Sorry, you must be at least a level 8 user.
sebbene sia loggato come admin.
Hi, this plugin looks awesome, but i haven’t been able to try it out on wp 2.5. Are you planning on a new version for 2.5 ? Thanks, and keep up the good work!
Ciao, ho installato il plugin, ma quando clicco su “this script” mi esce una nuova paginqa con:
“Not Found
The requested URL /wp-content/plugins/related-posts.php was not found on this server.
——————————————————————————–
Apache/2.0.51 (Fedora) Server at web.bbxweb.it Port 80″
Come faccio a risolvere questo problema?
Grazie
Andrea
Mick, can you help me to find code to call image that attached with related post in your plugin?
reply here or in my email, thanks..
Mick, this is cool wp plugin so i’ll waiting for your plugin run in wordpress 2.5.1 :wink:
any updates for a working version for 2.5.1? really looking forward to this.
e se volessi riportare i post di una determinata categoria?
This is a great plug in :)
Not found wordpress 2.6?
It seems that the plugin does not work on wp2.5.1 .
But It is amazing plugin!
Come on!
Con WP 2.6.5 mi da questo errore:
Fatal error: Image: Outputwidth and -height must be integers greater zero. in /web/htdocs/www.geeksource.eu/home/Blog/wp-content/plugins/related-post-thumbnail/class.ImageToolbox.php on line 898
C’è soluzione?
Ciao. Ho appena scaricato il tuo utilissimo plugin.
Ho controllato nel codice e ho visto che nella funzione related_posts() c’è la variabile $output che viene chiamata 2 volte: la prima per inizializzarla (fuori dal foreach) e la seconda per aggiungere in coda ” (all’interno del foreach).
Il risultato è che non stampa un bel niente, oltre a una lista di “palline” dei tag “li”. :-)
Sto provvedendo a correggere. Quando avrò finito ti avvertirò.
Un’altra cosa…
Poichè utilizzi un indice FULLINDEX dovresti avvertire che è necessario convertire la tabella “wp_posts” in “MyISAM” perchè è l’unico tipo di tabella che lo supporta.
Io ho convertito la mia “wp_posts” da Innodb a MyISAM e per adesso non ho riscontrato cambiamenti. Se succederà qualcosa ti avvertirò anche di questo.
Grazie per il tuo lavoro.
Ho sbagliato l’indirizzo email. Lo trovi su questo commento.
Giacomo, anche io ho la lista di palline… se riesci a correggere il tutto facci sapere!
