## FAQ

### How can I report security bugs?

You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program.
The Patchstack team helps validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities.
[Report a security vulnerability.](https://patchstack.com/database/vdp/45c54496-f99c-4a70-9774-f9dcfbc770b9)

### Why should I use this plugin?

Because it will increase the page views on your site, improving engagement and reducing
your bounce rate.

### Can I use the Inline related Posts plugin along with another Related posts plugin?

Yes you can! Our plugin puts fancy boxes INSIDE the content, not at the end of it.

### Will this plugin break the structure of my content?

NOPE. Our algorithm knows HTML tags and avoid placing the boxes in the wrong place!

### Do you have some others fancy box styles?

Yes! We have other cool styles and features in the PRO version. Check it out [https://intellywp.com/intelly-related-posts/](https://intellywp.com/intelly-related-posts/)

### Will this plugin slow my website?

Absolutely Not! Inline Related Posts is built with lightweight code so you won’t
notice any difference in speed using it.

### What Are the Shortcode options?

 1. [irp] — use this to place a box where ever you want.
 2. [irp posts=”183,179,191,195″] — this will display a box with a link to random post
    from the posts lists.
 3. [irp cats=”3″] — target only posts from the selected category(s) (use a comma separated
    list to add more categories)
 4. [irp tags=”18″] — target only posts with the selected tag(s) (use a comma separated
    list for more than one tag)

### 󠀁[div class](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/div-class/)󠁿

 [nikkinick](https://profiles.wordpress.org/nikkinick/) Octubre 26, 2024

<div class=”intelly-related-posts”> You can add so that the block is like this? 
There is unfortunately no unique content we can trigger. The style tag doesn’t have
any id or attribute. This is very inconvenient for the site to work, if you exclude
the insertion of advertising in this block.
