Nifty Related Posts

A WordPress plugin that adds related posts by category to the bottom of your single post template.

Mevabi

Mevabi – Related Posts Inline lets you automatically insert related posts directly inside your post content — not just at the bottom. Keep readers engaged by surfacing relevant content right where their attention is.
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Two placement modes — Insert related posts at the end of the content, or distribute them inline evenly throughout paragraphs.</li>
<li>Three modern layouts — Choose the style that fits your theme:
<ul>
<li>Design 1 · Solid + Arrow — Full-color card with a large right-hand arrow CTA. Section title displayed above the box.</li>
<li>Design 2 · Grey · Centered — Subtle light-grey card, centered text, section title inside the box. No arrow.</li>
<li>Design 3 · Image + Arrow — Same as Design 1 but with the featured image displayed on the left side of the card.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Fully clickable cards — The entire card area is a single link; no awkward partial click zones.</li>
<li>Per-design color customization — Every color (background, hover, title, excerpt, arrow, section label, border, border-radius) is individually configurable via native color pickers in the admin.</li>
<li>Optional post excerpt — Show a short, clean text excerpt (shortcodes and HTML stripped automatically). If the post begins with a shortcode it is skipped and the first real text paragraph is used instead.</li>
<li>Typography controls — Set font sizes (in any CSS unit) for the section title, post title, and excerpt independently.</li>
<li>Match by category or tags — Choose which taxonomy drives the “related” logic.</li>
<li>Link target — Open related post links in the same tab or a new tab (with proper <code>rel="noopener noreferrer"</code>).</li>
<li>Section title — Define a custom heading shown above (or inside) each related posts block.</li>
<li>1–3 posts — Display one, two, or three related posts per block.</li>
<li>Lightweight — No jQuery, no external libraries; vanilla JS + a single small CSS file.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
