I'm very excited about this module, but I haven't been able to get it running at all. Have I missed a step? This module would be a great boon for a project I'm working on.

Thanks for the help!

Expected behavior: Expected to see Uniqueness block on sidebar and dropdown on node-title field.
Actual behavior: No display of block. No node-title field dropdown

Steps taken:
Clean Drupal install, empty content database
Download/install Uniqueness
Enable Uniqueness block in options
Go into Blocks control and add Uniqueness block to side bar
Create Page of content
Create a new page of content with same title.

Versions,
Drupal 6.19
Uniqueness: 6.x-1.x-dev (2010 Oct-21)

Have you gone to a content type and enabled it there? Admin > Content management > Content types > (edit a content type and expand the Uniqueness fieldset)

I guess we could add a message to the settings page if the module hasn't been enabled for any content-types to make that extra step more clear to the user...

Or add a link to the content type admin page in the intro to the settings page. Something like:

{Uniqueness module provides a way to avoid duplicate content on your site by informing a user about similar or related content during creation of a new post.} Enable Uniqueness searching for each desired Content Type.

If a user administers the module long after its been installed, there would still be helpful text available.

Attached patch shows a message on the settings page if uniqueness search hasn't been enabled for any content types yet. I'm not really happy with the text atm, any suggestions?
