Yet Another Related Posts WordPress Plugin

Posted: 06 Nov 2008 02:00 AM CST

This will be my second post in as many weeks about related posts plugins, but after reviewing the related posts by category plugin last week, another plugin was brought to my attention.

This plugin is called the Yet Another Related Posts Plugin, but it is much more than that.  I mentioned in my last post that my favorite related posts plugin has not been updated in several years and doesn’t contain features like adding related posts to your feed.  YARRP separates itself from the rest with their advanced features, including:

  • Improved algorithm for finding related posts that also takes into consideration categories and tags
  • The ability to set a threshold on the relevancy of the posts that you want to show
  • The ability to display the related posts in your RSS feed
  • The automatic integration of the related links below your posts

As with any good plugin, you get a number of options which you can control from the WordPress dashboard:

I’m currently experimenting with this WordPress plugin on one of my low traffic sites and if I’m impressed, I will probably use this on all of my Wordpress installations.    Do any of you use this plugin?   Are you pleased with it or do you prefer a classic like Related Entries?

Hold President-elect Obama to his promise: Fight global poverty


AlterNet: The Mix is the Message

rule

 

Dear Reader,

We have just entered a new era of change and reform.  The historic decision made by the American people focuses new eyes on our nation and it is more important than ever to ensure President-elect Obama sticks to his promises. Join CARE and tell the president-elect to make fighting global poverty a central part of his foreign policy.

Dear Reader:

Now that we have a new president, it's time to tell him: stick to your promises to help the world's poor. In these difficult economic times, it is more important than ever for our new president to hear from us that fighting global poverty is still a priority.

Tell President-elect Obama that you're counting on him to keep his campaign promises:
  1. To double annual foreign assistance, providing at least $50 billion in aid by 2013 for HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis. That aid will ensure that at least 4.5 million people are on anti-retroviral treatment by 2013 and prevent 12 million new infections.


  2. To make the U.N. Millennium Development Goals a part of American policy. By the end of his first term, Obama promised to show progress in meeting these goals, including reducing by half the number of people living on less than a dollar a day and suffering from hunger.
Tell him that one of the keys to helping the world's poor is prioritizing maternal and child health. In the developing world, one woman every minute dies needlessly in childbirth. These women aren't dying because the health community doesn't know how to prevent their deaths; they are dying because the world is failing to help.

As you may know, CARE is a leading humanitarian organization fighting global poverty through the empowerment of women. Women and girls, when equipped with the proper resources, have the power to help their families and entire communities escape poverty.

Tell the president-elect to make fighting poverty a central part of his foreign policy. Ask him to stand with you in solidarity with the 1.4 billion people who live on a little more then a dollar a day ... the 72 million children who are not in school today ... the one woman who dies every minute from pregnancy-related causes.

Thank you for your support,
