What is Manual Related Posts?
Manual Related Posts is a plugin that allows you to manually specify related posts, rather than use a algorithm.
Once activated, this plugin adds a meta box to the Add/Edit Post screen where related posts can be chosen.
There is no limit to the number of related posts, and un-relating a post is simple, simply un-select the entry.

endforeach;
/ Display current posts related posts (Can we used inside a loop) */
foreach(fcnGetManualRelatedPosts() as $id) :
echo ‘’.get_the_title($id).’’;
