In reply to: [Related Posts by Sovrn] Specifying sites to show related postsHey,
thanks for reaching out and for the kind words – but I am afraid to say that this is a bit too ambitious for our plugin, sorry!
Really sorry for the inconvenience, take care and have a lovely day,

Hey,
thanks for reaching out – I’ll gladly help! Would you be so kind and give me a link to your blog, so that I can take a closer look? Also, a screenshot of (y)our plugin settings would be really helpful.
Looking forward to your reply,

In reply to: [Related Posts by Sovrn] adsense ads above the Zemanta pluginHey,
thanks for reaching out – I’ll gladly help. If you don’t mind me asking, which theme do you use? Also, do you have by any chance the “Related Posts” widget inserted in the “Primary Sidebar”/”Footer Widget Area”,…? Please check the screenshot.
Looking forward to your reply,

In reply to: [Related Posts by Sovrn] Why did you remove the statistics?Hey,
thanks for reaching out!
Unfortunately no, you can’t check them via our website. The reason why we ditched it in the first place was, that most of our users either did not use it or if they were somehow collecting their visitors/clicks data, they were doing it via the Google Analytics tool, which is a much more efficient than the one we were offering.It’s also why I would like to recommend it to you, since I’m sure it will do more than an adequate job for your needs. Here’s the link to its plugin page with a very neat description video (have a look): https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/
And please do let me know if you have any more questions what-so-ever, since I’ll be more than glad to help you out!
Take care & have a lovely day,

In reply to: [Related Posts by Sovrn] Moved from nRelate to Zemanta – nothing showingHey Gregor,
thanks for reaching out!
Unfortunately our plugin works only for posts not pages at the moment. You can configure it to show related posts on pages also but again, only if you have some posts on your blog – those will show up.Really sorry for the inconvenience, take care and have a lovely day,

In reply to: [Search Everything] Plugin not searching IssueM plugin articlesHey Kimberly,
thanks for reaching out – I have installed the “IssueM” plugin, added a new article and then tried searching for it…and it worked. Please make sure you have “Search custom taxonomies:” option in the plugin settings checked.
Let me know how it goes, take care and have a nice day,

In reply to: [Search Everything] no tag searchHey,
really sorry to hear it doesn’t work but I have re-tested this on my side and again, it works – which theme do you use? Would you be so kind and check if the search works with “Twenty Fourteen” theme?
Best,

In reply to: [WordPress Related Posts] 2.8 version brokenHey,
sorry for not replying any sooner. You could try to regenerate thumbnails with the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin but please make a backup before you do this (better to be safe than sorry).
PS: have you tried setting the featured image?

In reply to: [WordPress Related Posts] No thumbnails on 75 to 80 postHey,
have you made the changes in the “Custom CSS” box as well? This should help you out:

In reply to: [WordPress Related Posts] Excluding CategoriesHey,
thanks for reaching out but unfortunately excluding works as it should. It prevents related posts to show up in that category.
You can still remove the unwanted posts manually – via the “Edit Related Posts” button. I know this is inconvenient and time consuming but I can’t think of any other way, sorry.Best,

In reply to: [WordPress Related Posts] Images in posts not being detectedHey,
sorry for not replying any sooner. You could try to regenerate thumbnails with the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin but please make a backup before you do this (better to be safe than sorry).
Now, there is another option but it is a bit complicated:
First, go to your create-new-post page or — even better — in one of your previous already-published-posts. On the right top corner you should see the ‘Screen Options’ button; click on it for the drop-down menu to open. After that, tick the box next to ‘Custom Fields’.Now you should be able to see a new box below the editor called ‘Custom Fields’. Create new custom field, name your image that you would later like to use it as a thumbnail for this specific post (something like “My thumbnail”), enter the URL of the image you would like to use and finish with the click on the button “Add Custom Field”. Of course, don’t forget to save this draft, or publish the post when you’re ready.
After that, visit the settings of (y)our plugin and scroll down to the bottom. The option called “Use custom field for thumbnails” should now be available, tick the box next to it, and select the value you’ve set up before (if you used “My thumbnail”, select that one).
Now, the important thing is this: the value of the Custom Field stays the same for every new post, while the URL of the image (obviously) changes. In other words: the name of the Custom Field stays the same, images change. That’s because once you set up your settings in the plugin settings (when you choose which value our the Custom Field our plugin should use for the thumbnails), you won’t have to change it again in the future. This way you save yourself a lot of time.
Once you have set this up, you just add a Custom Field with every new post, set the image you want to use for the thumbnail, while the name stays the same.
Let me know how it goes,

In reply to: [WordPress Related Posts] Hide Related Posts on Specific Posts?Hey Sharon,
thanks for reaching out!
There is a way – I would suggest you to put that specific blog post in a new, specifically created category, and then exclude that category you just made from your plugin settings page.Let me know how it goes or if you have any more questions regarding anything & I’ll do my best to help you out!
Take care & have a nice day,
Petra
