Yet Another Related Post Plugin (YARPP) was just recently updated (March 3, 2012) and it calls a fatal error. This is in version 3.5 of the plugin and using WordPress 3.3.1.
The error should be something similar to:
– Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string in /home/blondish/public_html/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 805
If you are upgrading or have already upgraded your Yet Another Related Post Plugin, please check your website. If this fatal error occurs on yours, simply deactive, delete, and go to the YARPP download page in the WordPress plugin directory and download the previous full version of the plugin. The previous full version would be 3.4.3 and you can find it by going to the link that says “Other Versions.” Install that versiion, adjust the plugins settings, and you should be good to go.

Hi Nile, I was able to download that version before I read this post. Good thing is YARP already released another update to supercede the said version.

Hi Nile, thanks for the heads up!
At this point I do not have this plug in, but since you are recommending it I’ll take a look at the older version or wait for the correction.

Hello Nile this is not a plugin that I’m familiar with but I will get myself acquainted with it as you referred to it so favorably in reply to Marty’s comment! Thank you for the heads up these things are always good to know … great job! 🙂

This is the second plugin that I’m hearing has upgrade issues in as many as two days. Yesterday I heard that Pretty Links LIte had upgrade issues. Luckily the issue was fixed and most users had to revert to the previous version. Hopefully the issue is gixed soon. Thanks for the heads up Nile.

That related post plugin has been a major resource hog for years and I cringe when I see someone mention it as a plugin you should use. Effecient Related Posts is a better plugin for sure.

Hi Nile:
I did the update and I didn’t have any problems. Maybe I did it after they had fixed it because I didn’t do it right away.
