Hello,
I’m using the Newspaper theme and noticed that on a single post that belongs to a subcategory, the related posts section only shows posts from the same subcategory, but not from the parent category.
For example, if a post is in “Books > Fiction”, then related posts only show other posts in “Fiction” but not from the parent category “Books”.
Is there a way to include posts from both the subcategory and its parent category in the related posts?
I’ve tried overriding the single.php and using a custom function, but I’d prefer to use the theme’s native related posts system if possible.
Please guide me on how I can achieve this.
Thank you!
Hi,
This is how the options have been made to work, so using the option for Single – Related by category will display only articles from the same level, now if there is only one or 2 situations you can use the filter Single – Related from taxonomy and set the – https://i.imgur.com/ndkcbyc.png

Hi Rajender Singh,
I see that you are using standard templates and not cloud templates, but the mode that the block works is the same, the Related Articles will display only article s on the same level, so if you are in a subcategory, then will display only articles from that subcategory. If you want to change it you’ll need a developer that know how to change the code in wp-content/plugins/td-standard-pack/Newspaper/includes/shortcodes/td_block_related_posts.php file so it will work as you need.
Thank you for your understanding!
