Related Module pulling info from just title 2 Years ago Karma: 0  
First I'd like to say thank you so much, The related module for seyret is just what i was looking for.

I have a question about how the module knows what is relative.


The module doesn't seem to pull videos from the related category or desription only related information from the title.

I turned on Title and Tags, but what what tags does this refer to in seyret.

thanks for the help

The module takes keywords from the currently playing video and searches the database for videos containing the same keywords. It always searches in the title, description and tags fields.

For the most accurate results, you should select "Tags" only in the backend. Assuming the tags of the currently playing video are "boy, girl, man", it will search the database for videos that contain any of those words in their tags, title, description.

This will only work if you have tagged your videos. When you upload and add a video, you are prompted to provide tags. These are the ones takes as keywords by the module. If you haven't tagged your videos and you select this option, the module will have no input, and will therefore not search for related videos.

Older versions of Seyret didn't have the tags feature. Also, some people just can't be bothered to tag their videos. That is why we provided the (less ideal) alternative of searching by title. In these cases, you can set the module to find related videos by "Title". This is, obviously, less accurate.
