 * I really want to create a column inside a page for Similar “Stories from this
   author” All I need is a shortcode and I would be set? Is there one? Is there 
   a work-around that works? [@just0nequestion](https://wordpress.org/support/users/just0nequestion/)
   posted <?php similar_posts(); ?> about a year ago and it doesn’t work for me.
   I tried YARPP and it looks awesome but I can’t select author as a category (at
   least not that I could find, I would love to be wrong on that)
