Similar content widget block not available

[The Old Man]

Have you come across this before? The Similar Content widget block isn't available on my site for some reason and it isn't already in use on the page (I just double checked!).

I checked another one of my sites with the same full suite, same latest version and it is showing there under System blocks in the page editor:

  

Is there anyway to reactivate it, please?

Many thanks!

No idea what URLs you took those screenshots from, and away from my laptop so can't check if for you...but pretty sure that the widget is only available on content pages, so if you are on a forum index then no widget, but if reading a topic, you gotta widget.

Thanks @Nathan Explosion

Yes that makes sense. I just double checked and both screenshots were definitely taken when I was looking at a forum topic, one from each site.

I would need to know which site, so I can take a look for you. If its not already on the page then it should be available.

Thanks Marc!

That's done!

You cant see the similar content block, because the similar content block is already on that page in the top right. Its not showing anyhing, because there is nothing it deems to be similar

[The Old Man]

But when I go to the page editor there is no block there. There's only one which is a list of topics. 🤪

Its present, just not showing content because there is no similar content.
