Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

GR Auto Related Posts is designed for performance and ease of use. It automatically finds and displays a list of related posts based on shared categories, helping you increase reader engagement and lower your bounce rate.

With a simple settings page, you can control everything:

* Simple & Clear Positioning: Use radio buttons to choose exactly where related posts appear: before content, after content, in the middle, or after a specific number of paragraphs or headings.

* Smart Inputs: The number input field for paragraph/heading count only appears when you select that option.

* Manual Mode: Don’t want automatic insertion? Just use the [gr_related_posts] shortcode to manually place the list anywhere.

* Customize the Title: Change the heading that appears above the related posts list.

* Control Post Count: Choose exactly how many related posts you want to show.

* Choose Display Style: Select between a simple text list or a list with post thumbnails.

This plugin is intentionally built to be super lightweight, with no unnecessary scripts or complex database queries, ensuring your site remains fast.
