I have just implemented on my website (thesacredseduction dot com) and I had no problems implementing this plugin. I’m using WordPress 3.0.1. There’s 1 thing though now there’s no need to manually enter the code. In the latest version of this plugin there’s a link “Placement.” Just activate “Output after Post.”

Thanks for an excellent article.

I am not trying to be difficult here, its just that what you want to do is not as simple as me saying put the code on line 10. I need to see your templates, and that kind of discussion is better done outside of a comment system on a blog.

It’s Ok – I don’t really want to explain myself twice – a reply here would have been appropriate as my question just relates to this plugin tutorial and not the actual WFA course. Never mind, I’ll try getting an answer elsewhere.

Just PM me on the course forum with details of your problem.

Hi Andy

I’m not really having problems with the course itself. I’m just stuck at the configuring of the plugins part as the place I’ve reached in the WFA course doesn’t go into that. I’ve managed to source some of the info on the net, it’s just that I’m stuck on the Similar Posts plugin. I’ve read your tutorial above, but still have uncertainties & I’d be grateful if you could guide me with an answer.

Perhaps if you update the WPA course you could cover configuring of plugins in detail as some of the instructions that come with the plugins are a bit techie. Searching the internet, there doesn’t seem much on plugin tutorials for beginners and I’ve found it very frustrating and time consuming making sense of the information I did manage to find. I’m sure there must be others like me as WordPress become more popular as a publishing platform. Maybe this could be your next course!?

Many thanks
