   Hi all,

   I am trying to execute a query with query_posts, combining category__in and tag__in parameters. Well, it returns nothing :) Is it possible to combine these two parameters anyway?

   $post_categories = get_the_category($post->ID);
   $post_tags = get_the_tags($post->ID);

   //print_r($post_tags);
   $tags = array();
   if (is_array($post_tags)){
   foreach($post_tags as $tag) $tags[] = $tag->term_id;
   }

   $categories = array();
   foreach($post_categories as $cat) $categories[] = $cat->cat_ID;
   //print_r($categories);print_r($tags);
   query_posts(array( 'category__in'=>$categories , 'tag__in'=>$tags , 'post__not_in'=>array($post->ID) , 'caller_get_posts'=>1 ));

   Hi,

   Here is the code for displaying related posts based on the current post categories and tags:

   <?php
   //for use in the loop, list 5 post titles related to tags and categories on current post

   //Getting categories of the current posts
   $post_categories = get_the_category($post->ID);
   if ($post_categories) {
   for($i = 0; $i < count($post_categories); $i++){
   $my_categories .= $post_categories[$i]->term_id . ',';
   }
   }

   //Getting tags of the current posts
   $post_tags = wp_get_post_tags($post->ID);
   if ($post_tags) {
   foreach($post_tags as $tag) $my_tags[] = $tag->term_id;
   }

   echo 'Related Posts';
   $args=array(
   'tag__in' => $my_tags,
   'cat' => $my_categories,
   'post__not_in' => array($post->ID),
   'showposts'=>5,
   'caller_get_posts'=>1
   );
   $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
   if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
   while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
   //Add code for display posts
   endwhile;
   }
   ?>
