  Good idea. I added a requirements section:

  Display Related Posts on Your Blog

  A few days ago I got over 100 views on my other blog, cloudverse.wordpress.com. Following that the related posts option appeared again on Settings>Reading. I assume WordPress staff did some clicking around on that blog? Thanks for that. I’ll try to generate similar amount of traffic for writingskin.wordpress.com to see if it works for that blog too.

  That was me :) I was testing to make sure increased traffic was the right answer.

  Awesome! Keep in mind the traffic cannot be from anyone while logged in as a blog owner or administrator. Aim for at least 100 views, and note that it could take a day or so *after* that for the setting to appear — I was keeping an eye on cloudverse.wordpress.com and I didn’t see the setting after the site got some traffic, but that was only about 1 day after the traffic appeared.

  Thanks for helping out with the Cloudverse blog :)

  I generated some traffic for Writing Skin, enough so that the option now appears on Setting>Reading. I’ve chosen and saved the ‘Show related content after posts’ option, but nothing is appearing on the posts.

  I checked the latest post: http://cloudverse.wordpress.com/2014/01/07/temporal-orbits/

  And I can see related posts appearing there. Can you try clearing your browser cache as a troubleshooting step?

  Whoops, I mixed up the blogs when I did that last check.

  I checked http://writingskin.wordpress.com/2013/09/13/we-think-in-black-and-white/ and I see that related posts are missing there even though the setting is visible and turned on in the Settings > Reading page. I’m really not sure why they’re not showing up for that 2nd blog, but I’ll see what I can find out.
