Add Related Articles in Custom Sidebar

Hi there,

Just like the topic title, i am customizing the Post template and i am in the middle of creating my own sidebar. and so i was wondering how can i add related articles box (or rather, how to filter the posts with same category) inside the custom sidebar widget that i created?

In terms of ‘related’, other than same category, is there any other way to define it?

Thanks!

Hi Calin,

Thanks for the reply. Hmmm, in that case, is there a shortcode that i can echo in some php code to show the related articles?

This is because i think i can use related articles, but i wish to put it at the sidebar instead of bottom of the post.

Hi Calin,

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately, i am a bit confused with your suggestion on adding code from wp-content/plugins/td-composer/mobile/includes/modules/td_module_single_mob.php into posts sidebars -> wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newsmag/parts/single…

How can i do so?

To make it clearer, please go to this link: http://verztec-online.com/clients/annals/recurrent-vascular-events-in-ischaemic-stroke-patients-with-diabetes/ and look at the Sidebar on the bottom right side. I am trying to add Related Articles inside sidebar here.

So basically, i want the Related Articles box (located at bottom of every Posts) to be shifted into the Sidebar instead.

Hopefully this is illustrating my situation better.

Looking forward for your advice!

Thank you in advance.

Hi Calin,

I have found a solution for this by adding these code below:
$td_mod_single = new td_module_single($post);
echo $td_mod_single->related_posts();

.. inside the Posts’ single template file.

Thanks again for the suggestions!
