New Module: Related Entries
Yesterday, Erskine Design released the Related Entries Module, a “re-loaded module version” of the Better Related Entries extension (Google cache version, as the URL redirects to the new Erskine article).
Erskine developer Glen Swinfield explains:
The module works by extending the EE weblog class, it runs a query to get related entries and inserts a pipe-separated list of the IDs of those entries into the tag parameters. It’s as if you had added the IDs yourself in the tag only it’s dynamically getting them for you.
Because the Ed_related class extends the EE Weblog class the ‘entries’ method is available and unaffected so all of the usual parameters can be used.
That part about using the usual parameters? Sweetness.
