 * Just upgraded to the latest version and instead of getting the related posts 
   box that will show all of the related posts when words are typed it has disappeared.
 * Also a new post that I added (without putting in any related posts) the layout
   got messed up – there was no “Related Posts None”
 * I re-installed an older version and it works again perfectly.

 * Hi hauruapai,
 * Can you check if you have selected any post types on the plugins settings page?
 * And can you explain a little more about how your layout got messed up?

 * Oh my God, I thought I was the only one having this trouble. How the layout got
   messed up? Well, for starters, some of the parts at the end of the post (e.g.‘
   Tagged with: blah blah’, ‘File under: blah blah’) which used to be enclosed within
   the same div box as the post are now outside the enclosing bordered box. And 
   because of this, I have to scroll down to the bottom to see my right sidebar.
 * As to the plugin’s interface in the dashboard, it’s unresponsive.
 * Right now, I have disabled the plugin. Please help
 * (Hey hauruapai, where can I download an older version?)

 * Hi noelmoralde,
 * It’s really hard for me to tell what’s going on from the information you give
   me. Is there somewhere I can see the problem?

 * @ noelmoralde
    I always keep backups of old plugins which is why I could upload
   an older working one. And yes, what you described as a layout mess is exactly
   what I got to – except you explained it better than me!
 * @ microkid
    I went to upgrade the plugin again so I could get screenshots of 
   what is happening for you and seems that the gremlin has moved out of the admin-
   it now displays properly. I also did a new post and added a related article and
   it was all good but when I did a new post with no related posts it messed up 
   the layout again
 * [http://inthetravelworld.com/](http://inthetravelworld.com/) is where you can
   see the post without a related one and messed up layout as well as a post with
   a related post and no messed up layout
 * Now that I see what the new layout in the admin for related posts is I will try
   and describe what it was like. (It is ok there now)
 * There were no tabs for Posts and Pages – instead they were just listed under 
   each other – hyperlinked
 * It then said related without the box
    Under that Search Items – A little box 
   and Title Content Both with the buttons
 * Then that again. Here is an idea of what it was like:
 * —————————————-
    Posts (0) Pages (0) related Search BOX HERE Title Content Both
   related Search BOX HERE Title Content Both ——————————————
 * The only place where there were boxes was where I put BOX HERE above
 * For posts that already had related posts it was as follows:
 * —————————————-
    Posts (2) PostTitle x PostTitle x Pages (0) related Search BOX
   HERE Title Content Both related Search BOX HERE Title Content Both ——————————————
 * Hope this helps 😀

 * Ah! Now I understand.
 * The plugin loads its own CSS file in the admin. This file has been altered in
   the new version, but your browser was still displaying the old cached version
   of the file.
 * So if you run into this problem, hit shift + refresh or empty your browser cache.
 * [@noelmoralde](https://wordpress.org/support/users/noelmoralde/) does this solve
   your issue?

 * Nope – that has not fixed my sample of the no related posts plugin:
 * I hit refresh a few times
    F5 a few times Cleared the browser cache
 * and still got the messed up layout 🙁
 * Any other ideas? 🙂

 * Ah, I’ve solved the issue. There was an HTML bug that occurred when a post had
   no related posts and the “Display this text” option was turned on.
 * Please install the new version (3.0.1) and let me know if it works now.

 * Perfect – I installed the new one on the site, hit refreshed and all of the messed
   up payout is fixed 😀
 * Thank you so much for your time and effort – it is truly appreciated 😀

 * Excellent! Maybe you could take the time to hit the “Works” button in the Compatibility
   box on the plugins page:
