Displaying related posts on single.php page

Hello,

I am wanted to display a list of posts in a table format that are in the same category as the single post being currently view. How could I accomplish this?

Hey Joel,

What you can do is set a variable for the 'catergory__in' parameter in your WP_Query that was dynamically set when loading the single.php then add a code block that called that same variable and add a list of items that calls "the_permalink()" and "the_title()".

Look at more information at the Codex.

I have an example on another machine when I get to that office I will post a code block for you
