Conflict with WPSHOW Posts

I am using WP Show Posts and CRP is adding in related posts where they shouldn’t be. Essentially after the post excerpt. CRP shows the related posts if the blog article uses the readmore tag and not if it doesn’t. I’d like to disable CRP on all posts like this.

Also see:

As another example. In the example above, I wouldn’t expect to see any CRP output.

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

You could try to do the manual install of CRP by using echo_crp() by editing your theme. You can disable the Automatically add option in the settings page

I was thinking maybe you could help me write a function or some css code to conditionally hide the output of CRP if the showposts class is being called on the page.

You could do CSS code. This could work – you will need to add it to your theme’s CSS or in Customizer.
```
#tab-mobility-and-movement-articles .crp_related {
display:none
}
```
However, this would still be pulling the posts from the DB which isn’t ideal – that being said if you have the cache enabled within CRP then it will be fast

That won’t really work, because I’d have to go through every page and post on the website and manually insert this css code. So what I would need is some css code to use that will hide CRP code if it’s within a showpost class.

That should work if you add it to the header.php of your site or use a plugin like Add to All. I think you can add that in Customizer as well.

I’m not sure how or when the showpost class is being pulled as I’m not familiar with that plugin.

One potential option is to add a filter function to get_crp to return false if showposts is being pulled in.
