    I’m confused on where I would put the post ID in order to make this work. It could be a syntax thing, but I would appreciate if someone could actually show me an example using the ID’s below

    My post ID is 11170
    I would like to this post ID -> 11230 to appear in the related posts plugin.

    Where would I insert the two ID’s in the example below?

    function jetpackme_append_related_post( $hits, $post_id ) {
    // $post_id is the post we are currently getting related posts for
    // Add 1036 to the front of the hits array
    array_unshift( $hits, array( ‘id’ => 1036 ) );
    return $hits;
    }
    add_filter( ‘jetpack_relatedposts_filter_hits’, ‘jetpackme_append_related_post’ );

    Try the following:

    function jetpackme_append_related_post( $hits, $post_id ) {
	// $post_id is the post we are currently getting related posts for
        if ( 11170 == $post_id ) {
    	    // Add 1036 to the front of the hits array
	    array_unshift( $hits, array( 'id' => 11230 ) );
            // Remove the last element of the array
            array_pop( $hits );
        }

	return $hits;
}
add_filter( 'jetpack_relatedposts_filter_hits', 'jetpackme_append_related_post', 20, 2 );

    Thanks for your reply. Using this code didn’t change anything.

    Sure, here is a link to a post http://rollingspoke.com/pedal-mode-monday-vol-16/

    The post ID in the link is -> 10997
    The related post I’m looking to have appear -> 8329

    I have the following in the functions.php

    function jetpackme_append_related_post( $hits, $post_id ) {
	// $post_id is the post we are currently getting related posts for
       if ( 10997 == $post_id ) {
   	    // Add 1036 to the front of the hits array
	    array_unshift( $hits, array( 'id' => 8329 ) );
           // Remove the last element of the array
           array_pop( $hits );
       }

	return $hits;
}
add_filter( 'jetpack_relatedposts_filter_hits', 'jetpackme_append_related_post', 20, 2 );

    That code is correct. Could you try to add it via a plugin instead, like this:

    Let me know how it goes.

    Thanks for the zip file, it worked for this particular post. But what if I want to do the same for other posts?

    I duplicated the code in the plugin and just changed the ID’s to correspond to a different post and related post, but that didn’t produce any results.

    If you want to add more posts, you can indeed duplicate the function in the plugin and change the post IDs. It’s worth noting that you’ll have to change the function name as well, in both places where it’s displayed (when declaring the function and when hooking it into jetpack_relatedposts_filter_hits).

    Oh I missed the change when hooking into jetpack_relatedposts_filter_hits.

    Everything works great now, thanks so much for you help!
