    Perhaps a different approach would to ask anyone with PHP programming experience to write something that combines both the Primary category plugin and the Other Posts from Cat plugin so that the Other Posts from Cat plugin only takes posts from the Primary Category that post is in. Would anyone be interested in doing this? If so, please quote an hourly fee and estimated time it would take.

    Thanks.

    Thank you for the reply. I looked at this plugin actually. The problem lies in that I need the category posts that show up in the sidebar to be dynamically generated based on the Primary category of the current post being viewed.

    I will have so many different categories that in order to do one for each post, I’d have to make hundreds of different templates and assign each post to a different template that specifies the category to show on that post page. At least I think that’s what I’d have to do based on my understanding of this plugin. With this plugin you have to specify a category name or ID rather than it automatically grabbing it from the current post. If I’m wrong on that, I hope someone will enlighten me. Perhaps for the Value, I can use an argument as opposed to an actual Category Name or ID #??

    I’m sure I could use something like this in combination with something else or tweak the code a bit to get it to work, but unfortunately I am not a programmer. 🙁
