   Is it possible to have a different list of links for each page?
   Page A gets related link list A,
   Page B gets related link list B, etc.?
   My client will want to update the lists, so this is very close to what I need.
   Thanks.

     Yes, Bill, you can have a different list of related links for each page and post.

       Sorry to bug you again, but how do you add this to a page? Shows up fine in posts but not pages.

               Thanks for the plugin, just what I wanted! However, still not loading in pages in the admin, any chance you could get that updated :)

     Sure I added related_exlink_1 to http://reboltutorial.com/blog/category/parsing/

     Maybe it’s because I use WordPress Mu ?

       Well I haven’t tested it with WordPress MU, sorry. I’ll try to come up with a fix whenever I have some time.

   Should this work in 2.8.6. I don’t seem to be able to have any links saved when updating posts.

   Thanks for the great plugin, but I found a bug with strict HTML:
   The command in line 115 & 127 run always, so there are blank -tags. In HTML strict they are illegal, so I have add this statements in the code:
   at line 116: $set = false;
   inside the if: $set = true;
   and after line 127: if (!$set) $out = null;
   with this 3 lines the plugin creates HTML strict code

   Greetings

   Phil
