Hi, how can i display related post by category, not by tag?

To resolve this issue, you can open the \wp-content\themes\dw-minion\inc\template-tags.php
file. Find the line 124 to line 141.
Replace the following code:
function dw_minion_related_post($post_id) {
$tags = wp_get_post_tags($post_id);
if ($tags) {
$tag_ids = array();
foreach($tags as $individual_tag) $tag_ids[] = $individual_tag->term_id;
$args = array (
'tag__in' => $tag_ids,
'post__not_in' => array($post_id),
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'ignore_sticky_posts'=>1
);
} else {
$args = array (
'post__not_in' => array($post_id),
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'ignore_sticky_posts'=>1
);
} ?>
With new code:
function dw_minion_related_post($post_id) {
$categories = get_the_category($post->ID);
if ($categories) {
$category_ids = array();
foreach($categories as $individual_category) $category_ids[] = $individual_category->term_id;
$args = array (
'category__in' => $category_ids,
'post__not_in' => array($post_id),
'posts_per_page'=> 5, // Number of related posts that will be displayed.
'ignore_sticky_posts'=>1
);
} else {
$args = array (
'post__not_in' => array($post_id),
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'ignore_sticky_posts'=>1
);
} ?>
Hope this helps !
