    Hello,

    I would like to ask if it would be possible to add a feature that would allow to list only the posts of a selected category – in the category archive page and the single post page.
    This would mean that the post-per-cat script would list only posts of the same category as the currently displayed post.

    Thanks for the great plugin!

    Thanks for support and questions!

    Hum, good question.
    I not sure about a solution because in the blog I’m doing I’m just using one category for each post. I prefer to use tags for multiple keywords.

    In post-per-cat last version you can already include and exclude categories by their ID and filter out parent categories, so that’s already a help.

    The wordpress version I’m using (2.7.1) has no way to say, for each post, which is the most relevant category. If this was possible then it could be used as a way to filter post listing in the sidebar: you could choose to list posts for all the categories in currently displayed post or just posts from the most relevant category of the currently displayed post.

    Creating post-per-cat options for each post seems a bit too much of a trouble.
    So the most straight forward solution would be to list posts in all the categories the currently displayed post belongs to.

    Well, I’ll try to give it a bit more thought.
