How to Display Related Posts in WordPress — JetEngine + Query Builder

Related posts are a classic WordPress loop filtered to match the current post's taxonomy. JetEngine's Listing Grid — its visual loop builder — combines a Query Builder (what to display and under what conditions) with a template editor (how each item looks), so you can build this without writing a single query in PHP.

In this tutorial, Mark from Wicky Design shows two approaches: a direct Posts Query with the current_terms macro, and an alternative using the Query Builder for more advanced filtering.

✅ What you'll learn:
• How to set up categories and assign them to posts
• How to create a listing item template (loop template) for related posts
• How to configure the Listing Grid widget on a single post template
• How to use the current_terms macro to match posts by shared taxonomy
• How to exclude the current post from the related posts loop
• How to build the same query using the Query Builder as an alternative
