Show related posts with wordpress post without using any plugin

Just copy paste the following code in your functions.php file.  You will find this file in your wordpress theme folder.

social_media_blog

function get_related_posts($post_id) {
$tags = wp_get_post_tags($post_id);
if ($tags) {
echo ‘Check some Related Posts<br>’;
$first_tag = $tags[0]->term_id;
$args=array(
‘tag__in’ => array($first_tag),
‘post__not_in’ => array($post->ID),
‘showposts’=>10,
‘caller_get_posts’=>1
);
$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
$the_permalink = get_permalink();
$post_title =  get_the_title();
$related_post = ‘<a href=”‘.$the_permalink.’”>’.$post_title.’</a><br>’;
echo $related_post;
endwhile;
}
}
}

You just need to use this function in your loop using “get_related_posts();” this function.
