About this plugin
ntrnllnk links your posts automatically—without any manual input:
- Related posts: After each post, it lists the most closely related ones under “Further reading.”
- In-content links: In the text, it links the first mention of another post’s subject—like “Agatha Christie” to the post “The Best Books by Agatha Christie.”
To relate posts, ntrnllnk compares their words (from titles, headings, text, categories, and tags) and the links they share. It works out related posts in the background and keeps them up to date, so visitors don’t wait for it. It’s optimized for English and German content; other languages work, too, with limits.
The list ships without styles, so that it looks like the rest of the content. It can also be placed manually, via the [ntrnllnk] shortcode or ntrnllnk_render(), and filters allow changing its markup and the in-content links.
A report under Tools → ntrnllnk shows each post’s related posts, with scores, and its in-content links, as well as posts without a list and posts no list includes.
The full documentation, including all settings and how scores work, is available on GitHub.
