It works with Posts, Pages and Custom Post Types, giving you a really simple way to make one post refer to another. Not to be confused with automated “Related Posts” plugins.
It’s probably most handy for Custom Post Types, where you may want to display a list of similar items based on factors that are indeterminable for an automatic algorithm.
Current Limitations
<ul>
<li>It’s only a one-way reference for now</li>
<li>It’s limited to linking posts of the same type</li>
</ul>
If you need help or have ideas for more features, please use the plugin forum.
<h3>Coming Soon</h3>
<ul>
<li>Admin panel for changing some basic options</li>
<li>Linking posts of different types</li>
<li>More flexible rendering of linked posts</li>
<li>Ordering of linked posts</li>
</ul>

FS Link Posts

FS Link Posts is a simple plugin to enable you to manually associate a post with other posts you’ve created.

WordPress has a built-in feature to install themes and plugins by supplying a zip file. Unfortunately, you cannot upgrade a theme or plugin using the same process. Instead, WordPress will say “destination already exists” when trying to upgrade using a zip file and will fail to upgrade the theme or plugin.
Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades fixes this limitation in WordPress by automatically upgrading the theme or plugin if it already exists.
While upgrading, a backup copy of the old theme or plugin is first created. This allows you to install the old version in case of problems with the new version.
Attention: Version 2.0.0 changed the functionality of the plugin. You are no longer required to select “Yes” from a drop down before the theme or plugin can be upgraded. The need for an upgrade is now detected automatically. So, if you are used to the old functionality of the plugin, do not be concerned about the absence of upgrade details on the theme and plugin upload pages. Simply upload the theme or plugin as if you were installing it, and the plugin will automatically handle upgrading as needed.

Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades

This is a great plugin, and works exactly as intended.

Works great!


This was a GREAT plugin and I used it for years, but WordPress core does this now, so the plugin is no longer needed.  Thank you for your great work all these years.


No longer needed

Easily upgrade your themes and plugins using zip files without removing the theme or plugin first.
