Displaying related posts is a very great way to help visitors staying longer on your blog. You can use a plugin, but you also can use tags and a custom code to show related posts. Let’s see how to do!
Twitter is getting more and more popular each day. To make this benefit you, why not add a nice little “Tweet This” button to each blog post? Put this somewhere in The Loop in single.php.
If the user of your theme wants to style a single post differently than all of the others, the only way for you to make this easy for them is by giving each post a unique identifier. To do this, simple make use of “the_ID” in The Loop.
If, for whatever reason, you don’t want certain categories to be displayed, paste this code into The Loop. Note – Replace “6″ with the number corresponding to the category you want to block. <?php if ( have_posts() ) : query_posts($query_string .’&cat=-6′); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
