Reply To: How To Build Your Own Related Posts Plugin On Epik

This is the code I added at the end.

/** Display related posts in Genesis based on Category */
function related_posts_categories() {
if ( is_single ( ) ) {
global $post;
$count = 0;
$postIDs = array( $post->ID );
$related = '';
$cats = wp_get_post_categories( $post->ID );
$catIDs = array( );{
foreach ( $cats as $cat ) {
$catIDs[] = $cat;
}
$args = array(
'category__in' => $catIDs,
'post__not_in' => $postIDs,
'showposts' => 5,
'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
'orderby' => 'rand',
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'post_format',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => array(
'post-format-link',
'post-format-status',
'post-format-aside',
'post-format-quote' ),
'operator' => 'NOT IN'
)
)
);
$cat_query = new WP_Query( $args );
if ( $cat_query->have_posts() ) {
while ( $cat_query->have_posts() ) {
$cat_query->the_post();
$related .= '<li><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to' . get_the_title() . '">' . get_the_title() . '</a></li>';
}
}
}
if ( $related ) {
printf( '<div><h3>Related Posts</h3><ul>%s</ul></div>', $related );
}
wp_reset_query();
}
}
add_action( 'genesis_after_entry_content', 'related_posts_categories' );
