In version 1.1 of Embedded Posts, we have added an autocomplete function when searching for a single post by its title. Feedback from one of our users indicated frustration as this only allowed a direct match before displaying anything… occasionally, a typo could sneak in, and Embedded Posts would not show the desired posts.

In rare instances where you have two pieces of content with the same title, Embedded Posts will only return one result. You can manipulate this slightly by adjusting the sort order in the Embedded Posts settings panel. However, we think the best option in these circumstances is to use the Post ID, as it is a direct and unique identifier for the content you need.

A key feature of Embedded Posts is the ability to include various post types, like pages and custom post types (CPTs), in the block.

However, we felt the interface for displaying selected post types wasn’t as smooth as we’d like. With Version 1.0.11 of Embedded Posts, we’ve streamlined this experience, making it more intuitive and polished.

We noticed that placing an Embedded Posts block on a page could affect any subsequent loop queries—whether it’s another Embedded Posts block, a standard Query Loop block, the powerful Advanced Query Loop block by Ryan Welcher and probably many others…

Since this wasn’t ideal, we’ve addressed the issue in Version 1.0.10 of Embedded Posts to ensure smoother, independent functionality across all query blocks.

WordPress handles certain characters slightly differently, which can affect how Embedded Posts searches for Single Posts with special characters in their titles. Currently, we’ve identified & and < as characters that needed attention.

With Version 1.0.9, we’ve resolved this issue, improving search accuracy for posts with these characters. We’ll continue to monitor for any other special characters that might need adjustments!

By default, WordPress limits taxonomy archives to posts only. But since Embedded Posts now supports taxonomies on pages, we thought it would be great to extend this functionality to show both posts and pages linked by categories or tags.

With Version 1.0.8 of Embedded Posts, taxonomy archives can now display related posts and pages seamlessly!

Embedded Posts enables you to add post taxonomies to standard pages, making it easier than ever to find related posts of any type.

In previous versions, this functionality wasn’t as optimised as it could be. With Version 1.0.7, we’ve addressed this issue for smoother performance and improved efficiency.

WordPress has released an updated version of the platform, so we’ve updated Embedded Posts to match!

WordPress has introduced WordPress Playground—a platform that lets you run WordPress instantly on any device, no hosting required. It’s the perfect environment for building, experimenting, testing, and growing.

With Version 1.0.4 of Embedded Posts, we’ve added Playground compatibility, allowing you to explore and test Embedded Posts without needing a WordPress installation.
