Hi, I have created an information site using a pretty standard blog structure. It uses JA Morgan, though I think this may be a general Joomla question.

In the sidebar-2 position, I have a component I have called "Related Articles" of type "Tags - Similar". The various articles and categories all have tags.

When displaying an article with tags that match another article, the component shows the related articles exactly as I would expect, see https://thepeakconsultancy.co.uk/index.php/vision/vision-statement, for example. When I tag a category, that also appears in the Related Articles list (the "Vision" link is to a category, not an article). However, I cannot get the component to show on the Category page at all, e.g. https://thepeakconsultancy.co.uk/index.php/vision. This behaviour is the same whether I have Tags set to Show or Hide for the category. When I look in the menu module assignment for the associated menu item, the Related Articles module is set to Public, sidebar-2, Display-yes, Published=Yes.

Is there a known workaround for this? I found something on StackExchange from four years ago showing how to tackle this using override files but the code has changed from the example they gave and my PHP is not good enough to translate the changes to the new code.

Bit more digging, in modules/mod_tags_similar/tmpl/default.php, I added an echo line to the if (!$list) { ... } bit. The Related Articles module now appears on Category pages, with the text I echoed in place of the list. This suggests the module is working fine, but it is not being passed a list of associated articles.

Thanks in advance...
