## Description

The All Related Posts plugin is a simple behavioral targetting plugin. It provides
a widget which will display a specified number of relevant posts based on the user’s
behavior. It however does not create a user profile or impacts user privacy.

This plugin combines functionality from several other plugins that show related 
posts in one way or another.

It looks for related posts in the order indicated below until it has found a per
widget specified number of relevant posts.

The widget can be configured to show one or more of the following:

 * **Posts related to seach engine search terms (tags and categories)**: This is
   based on the assumption that tags and categories corresponding to a user’s search
   terms are relevant.
 * **The first post a visitor came to on a previous visit**: This is based on the
   assumption that he previously followed a relevant link from a search engine or
   other website. If he returns now, he might be looking for it again.
 * **Posts related to the shown post**: This is based on the assumption that tags
   and categories are indicative for related posts. Better tagging will result in
   better related posts.
 * **Posts related to seach engine search terms (full post content)**: If your tags
   and categories do not correspond with a user’s search terms, a full content search
   may result in other related posts. As this search is relatively database intensive,
   it is performed last. Make sure to add your blog domain name to the list of to
   be ignored terms in the widget, to prevent all posts with internal links to match.

Multiple widgets are supported, enabling you to show different groups of links for
different scenarios with different titles.

**Note: If no relevant posts or pages are found, no widget is shown.**

The admin interface supports the following translations:

 * Dutch (nl_NL)
 * Slovak (sk_SK) (thanks to Branco Radenovich, WebHostingGeeks.com)
 * Traditional Chinese (zh_TW)
