Description
The plugin provides an easy way to automatically assign your posts to relevant categories. The plugin looks up your post title, content, excerpt and tags, matches the key words with already available categories and automatically assigns the post to those relevant categories.
This plugin will be really helpful if your website has a huge number of post and post categories. The plugin minimizes the effort of manually assigning each and every post to relevant categories.
For example, if you create a post with a title “IPhone 5S Reviews” and you have categories like “IPhone”, “Reviews” available, then the post gets automatically assigned to these categories.

- Compatible with older WordPress versions, down to 3.0.
