Similar Articles
Does anyone know a 5.x way of creating a "similar articles" section (panels2?) like they do on theonion.com? There is a nice contributed module called similar but it displays items in a block (how do I show that block in panels2?), and I want it to look like theonion.com. Thanks! Sean
This is probably a question better posed to the forums or #drupal- support. And the Panels 2 documentation page http://drupal.org/node/201914 should give some ideas for getting started.

HI Sean, I've put a module which integrates with views called similar nodes http://drupal.org/project/similarnodes. I wouldn't say it's 100% there, but it works fine on my setup, and on a production site, so if you want to take a chance, I feel like it gives you the best flexibility...

On our new (dev) site, I'm doing this using: - a nodereference field to link 'similar articles' to a CCK node - the 'Node from reference' relationship in the panel page to get the nodereference field to show in the display See the 'see also' block on http://dev.indymedia.be/en/node/105 to see how it looks. - bruno Jacob Singh wrote:

There's also Related links (http://drupal.org/project/relatedlinks). I remember working with it a while ago, and it looks like it's still around and being developed. -c. -- Colan Schwartz Telephone & text chat (Skype): colanjs CMS Consultant | Openject Consulting | http://www.openject.com/
