Possible unexpected results on new ES Similar Content

[shiobi]

Hello.

I set up the new Similar Content widget that uses ElasticSearch on my community. I like how it works without the tagging system (we don't use that). However, I noticed when I use this widget on topics, I also get content like Status Updates (with an 404 URL) and articles from Pages. You are able to reproduce this creating a test topic whose title is the same as an existing status update (or article), or viceversa.

I think you should be able configure which apps this widget will filter.

If you want more details I can send them via PM.
Thanks

If you could update your access details on file, and indeed send me details of items on your site I can look at.

On taking a closer look at this, it is indeed correct. There is no way in which to exclude these at present. It will show similar content from anything which is indexed in the search index. That would indeed include statuses
