My b2evolution Version:

Hello everybody!

I want badly this thing on my blog:
http://www.linkwithin.com/learn
(I'm sure you've seen it around... Basically it display related posts at the bottom of each post with thumbnails).
It should work also with b2evo, and I've requested Linkwithin support twice with no result... I guess I'm doing something wrong copying the code snippet... Do you know exactly where I should put it?
Does any of you guys successfully implemented this widget on a b2evo blog? Heeeeelp!
Do you know if another similar alternative widget (with thumbnails) exist?

My blog is www.dailysuze.com - and you're all invited btw :D
I'm running b2evo version 3.3.2 released on 11/09/09

Many thanks in advance for your help and ciao from Italy!

As a starter; good news is, i believe you can use a combination of plugins to achieve that.
(btw you dont need anything from that website-plugin-)

a-We already have a Related Posts Plugin by ¥åßßå

b- and Avatar plugin by sam2kb allows you to add "Post avatar" to every post.

So what you are going to do is

1. install both these plugins;
2. insert a "widget container" right below your post -or wherever you want em to be displayed-
3. and use these two together in that container

Well, actually I think Linkwithin support people made it... Just like they promise on their site... Anyway, Linkwithin is working great (and getting better and better while the finish scanning my blog).

Just thought to let you know guys. In case someone else wanted just this widget and had my same problems, what I can suggest is to follow instructions on Linkwithin site and be patient (in case you can re-send the support request with the online forum or email, as a kind of reminder...)

Thanks anyway for your suggestion!

Don't let me forget to do that, I'm currently doing long days and am liable to forget, but it's not chore to implement as a setting ... so don't let me forget ;)

I won't, but honestly it's not high on my agenda. I just landed a new job and am redesigning my other website, in between doing other stuff too. If I remind you in 10 years it'll probably be too soon ;)

It's tested on 3.3.1 of b2evo; I can email you the file if you want. (Yabba's currently working on a redraft of it for me, which may get it to work across blogs too, not just related posts only for the blog you have the widget on)

I appreciate that.

I did manage to put it on, but something is wrong as it only shows the same three related posts for every post.

PM me your email address and I'll send it through. I also had the same problem with getting it to show the correct related posts but have solved the issue within my hacked file so hopefully it will work for you too.
