• Hi, the first thing i want to say is how cool and useful this plugin is, but mostly for an average user.

    When it comes to development, Yuzo really lacks something, which is customizing the template itself. I’m using an old version of this plugin ( below 5 ) and i had to modify it’s template to i can implement my schema.org markups, and achieve a custom HTML output. Now if i update the plugin, i have to do this all over again.

    I believe, there should be a very simple option for developers, so i am respectively requesting a new feature to be added to this plugin, if possible:

    Can you add a feature so that we can call yuzo inside a post or a template, and feed the called function with a post/category/etc id, and then get an array of related posts/categories/etc as return?

    This way we can simply use the returned IDs in any way we want.

    This shouldn’t be hard to implement, and i assume many developers will like it.

    Best regards,
    Jack

    Hello, do you have any examples of what you ask for, something that you can guide?

    Hello,

    Yes, for example consider this in a content.php or a loop:

    <?php yuzo_manual_feed($post->ID); ?>

    This function would return an array of IDs of related posts, instead of outputting an HTML. Like the following:

    Array(45, 133, 202, 281, 507)

    This way, we can run a foreach and use the IDs in our own desired HTML structure.

    It would be easy to implement this feature, but since the plugin changes with every patch, i might need to update my code each time, not to mention it might cause fatal php error before updating. But if you can add it, you can update it too with each patch.

    I can even write the function for you, in case you don’t have the time for it, if you are willing to add this feature.

    Regards,
    Jack

    I understand, but in the version Lite or Free could not add this, for the reason that the code is made a shampoo, that is, it is not ordered.
    It is very easy to add this functionality in the Pro version since the code is totally ordered.
