Mevabi – Related Posts Inline

Description

Mevabi – Related Posts Inline is the WordPress plugin that automatically inserts related post suggestions directly inside your article content — not just at the bottom where readers have already left. Surface the right content at the right moment, reduce bounce rate, and keep visitors reading longer.

Whether you call it inline related posts, automatic related posts, in-content post suggestions, or simply a related posts widget, Mevabi handles it all from a single, clean settings panel — no shortcodes, no Gutenberg blocks, no coding required.

Why Inline Related Posts?

Most related posts plugins append a block at the very end of an article — after readers have already decided to leave. Mevabi places related content inline, evenly distributed throughout the body text, so post suggestions appear exactly when reader attention is highest. The result: more pageviews, better time-on-site, and stronger internal linking for SEO.

Key Features

Placement & Display
Two placement modes — Append related posts at the end of the content, or distribute them inline evenly between paragraphs for maximum engagement.
1–3 related posts per block — Choose how many post cards appear in each insertion point.
Match by category or tags — Control which taxonomy drives the related posts logic so suggestions are always contextually relevant.

Three Modern Card Designs
Design 1 · Solid + Arrow — Bold full-color card with a large right-hand arrow CTA. Section title displayed above the card box.
Design 2 · Grey · Centered — Clean light-grey card with centered text and the section title inside the box. Minimal and elegant, no arrow.
Design 3 · Image + Arrow — Like Design 1 but with the post’s featured image displayed on the left side of the card for visual impact.

Full Color Customization
Per-design color control via native WordPress color pickers — background, hover state, post title, excerpt text, arrow, section label, border color, and border-radius are all individually configurable.
Changes reflect immediately with no need to write CSS.

Typography Controls
Set font sizes (accepts any CSS unit: px, em, rem, %) independently for the section title, post title, and excerpt.

Content & Excerpt
Optional post excerpt — Show a short descriptive excerpt below the post title. Shortcode tags and HTML are stripped automatically so the text is always clean.
Smart excerpt fallback — If a post begins with a shortcode block, Mevabi skips it and uses the first real text paragraph instead.

UX & Accessibility
Fully clickable cards — The entire card surface is a single anchor link; no confusing partial click zones.
Link target control — Open related posts in the same tab or a new tab (with proper rel="noopener noreferrer" for security).
Custom section title — Define your own heading label shown above or inside each related posts block (e.g. “You might also like”, “Keep reading”, “Related articles”).

Performance
Lightweight and fast — Zero jQuery, zero external libraries. Vanilla JavaScript plus a single minified CSS file. No impact on Core Web Vitals or PageSpeed scores.
No external API calls, no tracking scripts, no bloat.
