    Hey guys,

    I am looking for an easy to use related posts plugin. I have tried a few (Yarrp, similar-posts) But I cannot get either of them to work.

    Which one do you guys like to use??

    Thanks!

    I'd actually say NRelate is my favorite related posts plugin. I previously used YARP as Rakesh suggested and it is pretty well put together.

    Yeah! Yet Another Related Posts plugin gives you lots of features and an option what to focus on - Tags, Title, Body, Category etc.

    be careful that certain related posts plugins are more resource hungry and consume cpu. Rather than computing the whole post body, title etc, the simplest way to pull related posts is using tags and this way puts less strain on your server.

    That's another reason I love NRelate actually. It's set to load after everything else in the post comes up so it doesn't change the load time of your actual content.

    I have recently written a related posts plugin as I was tired of too complicated algorithms used by everyone which were slowing down my page load time. All i wanted was simple, fast efficient plugin to display related posts from same category. So decided to write one for myself and I am using the same on my website. You can download the same from wordpress.org (KC Related post by category).

    For demo and link to download Related Post Plugin with Thumbnails
