Playing with relations
Posted in : Plugins & Widgets
Hey cuzz 
Of course, all the relations were of adult age and consent was given 
.... so, I've come back to a plugin that I was playing with months ago, but put on hold because I couldn't be arsed coding in all the tag stuff that it needed. However the latest version of b2evolution has tag support, so I can just do the lazy arsed bit and code the related posts component of it 
What does it do?
Well, apart from molesting your relations, it adds a list of related posts to each of your posts based on the tags that you've used for your posts, in a kinda "nearest cuzzin" way. This is all automated ( although I might make it a skintag thing at a later date ), so you just need to upload and install ..... and yer cuzzins are mine
As always, this plugin is supplied as is .... and if it molests yer granny then .... well, hell, she deserves a tad of excitement at her age huh? ... anyway, you can download it here .... let me know if it fails huh?

Swift update 23rd Oct
After a tad of testing by John the plugin has had a couple of glitches ironed out. It's also had a shedload of parameters added to it so that you can play with the layout directly from admin. The zip has been updated.
Update 24th Oct ( zip updated )
The plugin has now been "widgetised" which allows you to have individual settings per blog, and a new setting has been added to the plugin settings to turn widget support on/off
Note : To use the widget abilities you need a container in your post loop where you want the related posts to appear. Obviously you also need to install the widget in the container as well
Another update 24th Oct ( zip updated )
Thanks to Gary a couple of bugs with rss feeds and "only post with tags" have been cured
