Drupal 4.7.4
Similar Entries Current release (as of 02/02/07)

Installed the module and made sure 2 nodes of the same type had at least one word in common in the description field (I am using CCK, but that shouldn't do anything wrong I would think). I setup the block and restricted it to only show on the selected page of node/*. Set teaser text to yes (no doesn't seem to work either), set the taxonomy category filter to none, and have all the taxonomy categories listed.

I re-indexted the site, and went to view the 2 nodes, and neither showed that the other was similar. Trying to figure out what I may have done wrong. Does the related node have to have something in common in both title and the body?

Title: Similar entries isn't working. no similar nodes are being shown. » add CCK support for the MySQL MATCH
Version: 4.7.x-1.0 » master
Category: support » feature

Normally, most of what I would say here would be based on the bottom of this URL: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/fulltext-search.html

In this case, I get to say similar only matches regular nodes. CCK might as well be named Custom Content Kit, and this is a general purpose module. Albeit, it could change to add support, but it'll probably take a patch submission from someone else cause I don't have much interest in doing it myself.
