Today, I received one notification about the update available for MicroKid Related Posts plugin that I have been using it since version 2.3. It was changed from 2.3 to 2.4. According to its change log, there were 4 main things that changed:

1. You can now add drafts and planned posts as related posts, without them appearing on your site before they are properly published.
2. Added shortcode support: you can now place the [ related-posts ] shortcode within the content of your post to display the related posts anywhere you want.
3. (For advanced users) Added a parameter to the MRP_get_related_posts function to optionally get the related posts in an object, so you can easily use it in other plugins or your own custom way of displaying the list of related posts. For documentation on this, see [the API section](http://www.microkid.net/wordpress/related-posts/#API “Microkids Related Posts API functions”).
4. (For advanced users) Added a parameter to the MRP_get_related_posts function to optionally include unpublished posts to the related posts list. For documentation on this, see [the API section](http://www.microkid.net/wordpress/related-posts/#API “Microkids Related Posts API functions”).
