   I am using a piece of code to pull similar posts into a particular area on each post page. The code is working in part - the links it pulls together are fine - but the text it displays for the links is taken from the page being viewed, rather than the destination. This is true for the title and thumbnail.

   I expect this is a fairly easy fix so please excuse my ignorance! Any help appreciated, code below.

   Thanks!

   <?php
     $tags = wp_get_post_tags($post->ID);
     $tagIDs = array();
     if ($tags) {
       $tagcount = count($tags);
       for ($i = 0; $i < $tagcount; $i++) {
         $tagIDs[$i] = $tags[$i]->term_id;
       }
       $args=array(
         'tag__in' => $tagIDs,
         'post__not_in' => array($post->ID),
         'showposts'=>5,
         'caller_get_posts'=>1
       );
       $my_query = new WP_Query($args);
       if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
         while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
   <?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail($page->ID, 'mini-thumbnail'); ?>
           <div id="similarbook"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?> - <?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'bookauthor', true); ?></a></div>
         <?php endwhile;
       }
     }
   ?>
