This Drupal module attempts to provide context for content items by
|
| 7 |
displaying a block with links to other similar content. Similarity is
|
| 8 |
based on the taxonomy terms assigned to content. Blocks are available
|
| 9 |
based on similarity within each of the defined vocabularies for a site
|
| 10 |
as well as a block for similarity within all vocabularies.
|
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
What does this really mean? How should you use this module?
|
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
1) Create a freetagging vocabulary called "Tags" assigned to the content
|
| 15 |
types on which you'd like to display the "Similar" block.
|
| 16 |
2) Enable the block called "Similar entries from the Tags vocabulary".
|
| 17 |
3) Add keyword tags to the content.
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Done!
|
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Now when you go to the page for a tagged content item, a block will show
|
| 22 |
up displaying other content in descending order of common tags (terms).
