Like”]

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 5.0+
 * PHP 7.4+

## Встановлення

 1. Upload the `zyonix-related-posts` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory,
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings  Related Posts** to configure the plugin.
 4. That’s it! Related posts will now appear automatically after your post content.

## Часті питання

### Related posts are not showing up. What should I do?

Go to **Settings  Related Posts** and make sure:
 1. The correct Post Types are 
checked under “Show On Post Types”. 2. At least one option is checked under “Matching
Logic” (Category, Tag, or Author). 3. “Auto-append to Content” is enabled.

### Can I show related posts manually instead of automatically?

Yes! Disable “Auto-append to Content” in the settings, then place the shortcode `[
zyonrp_related_posts]` wherever you want them to appear.

### Can I style the related posts section myself?

Yes. Add styles to your theme’s stylesheet targeting `.zyonrp-related-posts`.

### Does it support custom post types?

Yes. All public post types are listed in the “Show On Post Types” setting so you
can enable related posts for any of them.

### What does the shortcode support?

[zyonrp_related_posts count=”5″ layout=”grid” title=”Related Posts”]

All three attributes are optional and fall back to your global settings.

## Журнал змін

#### 1.0.3

 * Critical fix: replaced get_the_excerpt() with direct post_excerpt/post_content
   reading to prevent the_content filter chain firing on every related post item—
   the root cause of page load blocking.
 * Fix: post meta cache re-enabled so has_post_thumbnail() and get_the_post_thumbnail()
   do not fire individual DB queries per post.
 * Fix: post_content_cache now built for both read_time and excerpt, not just read_time.

#### 1.0.2

 * Performance fix: plugin no longer runs an unrestricted WP_Query when a post has
   no category/tag assigned, which caused slowdowns on large sites.
 * Performance fix: added update_post_meta_cache and update_post_term_cache=false
   to avoid unnecessary DB queries.
 * Performance fix: permalink now cached per post item instead of fetched twice.

#### 1.0.1

 * Fixed Load More “has_more” logic that caused the button to never hide.
 * Security: validate post status and password protection in AJAX handler.
 * Performance: PHP shuffle pool fetch avoids ORDER BY RAND() full table scan.
 * Performance: post content cache avoids N+1 DB queries for read-time calculation.
 * Security: post types validated against registered public types on every request.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release.
 * Grid and List layout options.
 * Excerpt, publish date, and estimated read time display options.
 * AJAX-powered “Load More” button.
 * Shortcode `[zyonrp_related_posts]` with count, layout, and title attributes.
 * WordPress Widget support.
 * Order By option (Latest, Most Commented, Random).
 * Thumbnail size selector.
 * Open links in new tab option.
 * Auto-append to content toggle.
 * Default options set on plugin activation.
 * Full input sanitization, validation, and escaping per WordPress coding standards.
