SearchWP knows a lot about the content on your site. Showing visitors related content can help extend their stay by exposing entries related to the one currently on display. If you’re currently using another related content solution, this extension can also lighten the load on your server by reducing the overhead of maintaining a separate related content index, or running heavy database queries at runtime.
Like SearchWP itself and its other extensions, Related was built with developers in mind. It’s as much a customizable system as it is a turnkey solution.
By default Related doesn’t do anything, but you can opt in to having Related automatically append related entries (per post type) on its settings screen
Related ships with an auto append default template designed to fit in well with your theme, but that’s not enough. There is a full template loader built in, allowing you to easily completely customize the look and feel of your related content.
The template loader is great because it allows you to completely specify the markup and style used for your Related content without having to muck with hooks or dequeueing assets or behavior that’s getting in your way.
If auto appending isn’t your style, you can programmatically utilize Related to find related content, and do what you want with it!
