AlexWebsites Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I like the similar content block that seems to be triggered by tags used. However, when there are no tags used there is no similar content block and I think in some cases it would be good to be able to just put a default tag if one does not exist, to trigger the block to show something for content on the page and SEO. Maybe a setting within the block where you can add a default tag to be used to trigger the block on, if tags don't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 How would it determine which content is similar in that case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was first thinking of setting some default words in admin panel lets say, maybe if your community was around a certain niche...but that may be too broad. Maybe default tags by forum when you create a new forum if tags aren't entered to trigger? Or if there are no tags, maybe you take the title of the topic and strip out words that are over a certain amount of characters. I think the similar content block drives more engagement and if the user doesn't see anything, then it's a missed opportunity to stay on the site. I was just brainstorming on how to get something when no tags are used. So for those no reply/not tagged topics, it may bring in additional content on the page for people to click into.

andavis Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Where can we change the settings of the "similar content" block in the ACP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 There is no setting to change the similar content block in the AdminCP. Widget-specific settings are available when you use the sidebar manager to move and edit widgets inline on the front end of the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andavis Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Thank you. I wanted to exclude Pages Articles from the similar content block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
