No "related articles" appear

delinea

I do not know where my configuration error is

Can you point me to the section you are referring to?
Does it have a different url than the home page?

Cheers

The problem appears when I enter a news item (an article), the "related news" module does not appear. I'm sure it's a configuration problem of mine, but I can not find where the problem is

Hi,

First of all, you need to create a module type of Articles-Related and assign to article-bottom position + page you want to show: http://prntscr.com/jnjaug

This module will show related articles from viewing article WHEN those articles have the same Meta Keyword: http://prntscr.com/jnj9d7

For example, this article on our demo site: http://ja-magz-ii.demo.joomlart.com/index.php/en/world/19-us-canada/9-hudson-witness-stanley-laugh

It has meta keyword: Entertainment, the 'Related articles' will show all articles which have the same keyword 'Entertainment'

Hope this helps.

Regards

no, my problem is elsewhere with the configuration, as an example I have 15 news with the tag "mauricio macri", in none of them does the module appear below.
I think the problem may be in the general assignment of the template (default and default not sidebar) because I still did not understand that

Hi delinea

I added correctly the keyword 'Mauricio Macri' at your article with id = 433 and module is appearing correctly in this page

So it works correctly

Best regards

delinea

I appreciate it, but I do not understand, all the news have the key words, I do not know what the difference is, I do not know what he did, how he loaded it into the keyword ... all the articles have keywords (tags).
Excuse my ignorance, I do not know how to load it differently, if you can observe you will see that each article has the key words.

Hi,

I guess you're misunderstanding Tags vs Meta Keywords, they are different.

In article settings:
- Tags is added via the 'Content' tab
- Meta Keywords is set via 'Publishing' tab: https://prnt.sc/jnj9d7

As I explained in details above, this Articles Related module shows related articles based on 'Meta Keywords' not Tags.

Kindly check again.

ok, ok, now I understand. This means that the labels that I loaded are useless, I have to reload them in the key metawords.
Is not there a way to "copy and paste"? It's a terrible job

You can do it via phpmyadmin editing your #_content table articles and change or add your metakey via SQL Query

If you search on google for example queries it will take few minutes only

ok, you tell me how to search in google? that is, what phrase should I write to get results related to this probable solution?

You can search for how to UPDATE MySql table

delinea

Ok, I'm going to search.
Now I consult, this will allow that when loading the data in one can also (mirror) incorporate to the other field? or should I reload in each one again?

pavit

Hi delinea

You can use this query

UPDATEyourprefix_contentSETmetakey= 'Mauricio Macri' WHEREmetakey= ''

This will update all empty tables in metakey with Mauricio Macri value

If you want to update tables already having a value then you can use

UPDATEyourprefix_contentSETmetakey= 'Mauricio Macri' WHEREmetakey= 'your value'

Take always a backup of your table before to update it

I'd just like to underline Pavit's point please backup your database before editing any fields

Perfect, but the creation date appears, that's not useful, I need the publication date to appear. If this is not possible, nothing appears.

This has nothing to do with the query that added metakeys into your articles, you should set dates manually .

delinea

Sorry, it has nothing to do with the query I did earlier. It happens that now that I have taken the trouble to load the words manually, I realize that it loads the date of creation (what I do not know what it can do), I need you to upload the publication date, which is loaded correctly in each article, I did it as it should be when I loaded the news. Maybe I did not express myself well, it has nothing to do with the meta keywords

pavit

Could you clarify better your question ? because it is not clear what you want to accomplish now.

Actually latest articles are loading publication date on your website .

You want to change it ?

delinea

Please: I want you to upload only the publication start date, always, in all articles

Sorry but i do not follow you on this.
