   Hi there! I couldn't find a plug-in that did exactly what I was looking for and ended up writing the code (poorly) myself in php. I'm hoping that someone can shed some light on this.

   I currently want to add a Related Resources bar to my pages that looks for posts that are tagged with the page name. For example, on the Employee Recognition page, I want to show posts that have been tagged with Employee Recognition.

   Here it is, working:
   http://www.scarlettpromotions.com/ILR/solutions/employee-recognition/

   Here is the code I used. You can see it is not optimal!

   <?php
   if ( is_page(array('Employee Recognition', 'Sales Incentives')))
   {
   $resourceTag=get_the_title(); ?>
   
   <?php if ($resourceTag=="Employee Recognition")
   {
   query_posts('category_name=blog&tag=employee-recognition+employee-recognition&posts_per_page=2');
   
   } elseif ($resourceTag=="Sales Incentives"){
   query_posts('category_name=blog&tag=sales-incentives+sales-incentives&posts_per_page=2');
   
   }elseif ($resourceTag=="Recession Package"){
   query_posts('category_name=blog&tag=recession-package+recession-package&posts_per_page=2');
   
   }
   elseif ($resourceTag=="Celebrate Years of Service"){
   query_posts('category_name=blog&tag=celebrate-years-of-service+celebrate-years-of-service&posts_per_page=2');
   } ?>
   
   <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   <p style="padding-bottom:3px;">Blogs</p>
   <ul style="padding-bottom:10px;">
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   // the Loop
     // the content of the post ?>
     <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
   
   <?php endwhile;?>
   </ul>
   <?php endif; ?>
   
   <?php
   if ($resourceTag=="Employee Recognition")
   {
       query_posts('category_name=white-papers&tag=employee-recognition+employee-recognition');
   
    } elseif ($resourceTag=="Sales Incentives"){
       query_posts('category_name=white-papers&tag=sales-incentives+sales-incentives');
   
   }elseif ($resourceTag=="Recession Package"){
       query_posts('category_name=white-papers&tag=recession-package+recession-package');
   
   }
   elseif ($resourceTag=="Celebrate Years of Service"){
   query_posts('category_name=white-papers&tag=celebrate-years-of-service+celebrate-years-of-service');
   
   } ?>
   
   <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   <p style="padding-bottom:3px;">White Papers</p>
   <ul style="padding-bottom:10px;">
   
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   // the Loop
     // the content of the post ?>
      <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
   
   <?php endwhile;?>
   </ul>
   <?php endif; ?>
   
   <?php
   if ($resourceTag=="Employee Recognition")
   {
       query_posts('category_name=in-the-news&tag=employee-recognition+employee-recognition&posts_per_page=2');
   
    } elseif ($resourceTag=="Sales Incentives"){
       query_posts('category_name=in-the-news&tag=sales-incentives+sales-incentives&posts_per_page=2');
   
   }elseif ($resourceTag=="Recession Package"){
       query_posts('category_name=in-the-news&tag=recession-package+recession-package&posts_per_page=2');
   
   }
   elseif ($resourceTag=="Celebrate Years of Service"){
   query_posts('category_name=in-the-news&tag=celebrate-years-of-service+celebrate-years-of-service&posts_per_page=2');
   } ?>
   <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   <p style="padding-bottom:3px;">In the News Articles</p>
   <ul style="padding-bottom:10px;">
   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   // the Loop
     // the content of the post ?>
      <li><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></li>
   
   <?php endwhile;?>
   </ul>
   <?php endif; ?>
   
   <?php //Reset Query
   wp_reset_query();
   
   ?>
