1. Upload the folder WPRP to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress

    Is is self hosted or wordpress.com?
    You can't upload anything to wordpress.com you are stuck with the widgets they provide if it is self hosted you ftp it. Tell us which it is.

    yeah it is not self hosted you can not add anything to it, you have to use the widgets they offer only.

    Only self hosted wordpress blogs allow you to add anything you want.

    So unless there are some themes there that include in their code that ability you can't use it.

      Possibly related posts walk-through
      Here is a walk-through for setting up your blog so "Possibly related posts" display at the end of your posts:
      --> Dashboard --> Appearance --> Extras

      Remove the check mark from -->
      ___ Hide related links on this blog, which means this blog won’t show up on other blogs or get traffic that way

      Click "Update Extras"

      Special note: If you want ONLY the related earlier posts from your own blog to display on your then there is no automatic way to do that. I add mine manually to every post prior to publication.

      I hope this helps you. Happy blogging!
