   I would like to put related posts on page template. I already have peace of modified code that works on page template. But, it shows only recent posts because it needs some modification to be done.

   Can you help me with this one.

   Thanks in advance!

   Hello,

   So, you have a PHP code that generates a list of posts, and works OK. But, you want to change it so it retrieves related posts instead of recent.

   Is that right?

   If so, please upload your PHP script, I will modify it and send it back to you.

   No, infact, I would like to get related posts at the bottom of page according to relavant keywords of page. Is this possible?
   So far I have PHP code actually the same as one that generates related posts at the bottom of posts.

   Ok, here it is.

   I'm using it as short code, but it can be used as function as well.

   Hello csanyigroup, sorry for the late reply.

   It would be easiest to group your posts by tags. Open up /wp-content/themes/infocus/lib/functions/widgets.php and on line 169 you should see this,

   $posts = get_posts("category=".$cat."&numberposts=3&offset=0");

   You can group the query by tags by doing this,

   $posts = get_posts("tag=bread,baking,gardening&category=".$cat."&numberposts=3&offset=0");

   You can get the tags like so, $tags = get_tags();. That should be able to get you started.

   Our next update is nearing completion and we have included shortcodes for this so if your having trouble it would probably be best to wait for it.
