I don't know if anyone else experiences this or not but it's kind of an hassle. Google is using dates from the related topics table to grab the oldest and apply that as the indexed date related to the entire page.

I have a particular situation in a thread created two weeks ago that Google returns as being from Apr 2012. Apr 2012 is the oldest of the related topics that this topic has.

Does anyone have any pointers on this? I found this:
https://support.google.com/customsearch/answer/2364585?hl=en

And I'm trying to get it setup, but I don't know if it will help or not.


Cheers

Edit: I'm thinking that most likely the best way to prevent this is to make the related topics available to logged in users only.

Edit2: I opted to just hard code it:
$topic['last_post']['time']
to:
$context['user']['is_logged'] ? $topic['last_post']['time'] : ''

This doesn't go to the right Topic where browsing a board normally, i had to turn it off.

any idea why ?

Niko was last active exactly a year ago today. I think it's safe to assume this mod is abandoned. Can anyone suggest an alternative?

I have installed this Mod without any error, but after configure the settings as it said, related topics box doesn't appears anywhere. I'm using v2.0.13 with Anecdota Theme, it's a bit strange, i don't think it could be related with the Theme, but if anyone knows let me know to ask to Theme's Author.

Thank you.

When trying to rebuild the indexes got this error message:

Incorrect string value: '\xC4\x8Denja...' for column 'subject' at row 110
File: /var/www/html/Sources/Subs-RelatedFulltext.php
Line: 71

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 2.0.15, while your database is at version 2.0. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.


any help will be appreciated!

I had this mod working well on my old forum but on a new SMF 2.0.17 it breaks the code when wanting to access a topic and give this error message:

Wrong value type sent to the database. Integer expected. (id_msg)

When wanting to rebuild the index I get this error:


The used table type doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes
File: /var/www/web7/htdocs/Sources/Subs-RelatedFulltext.php
Line: 29


Any thoghts?

You're running it on a modern MySQL instance that uses InnoDB tables by default, and this mod expects MyISAM tables.

Don't use this mod; use the other one that's actually maintained.

Forgive the ol' bump up, Arantor, but what other plugin? SMF's Customize only showed one mod for "related".
