When using it with [bd] Widget Framework choose renderer [Advanced] Template and NOT [Advanced] Template (without wrapper). Also you can add the code I gave you in conversation.

I have just changed thos , but I get a double "wrapper" now. It looked better with [Advanced] Template (without wrapper).

 

[BassMan]

Yes, I can see, I guess you're using both now: my code I gave you before and renderer with wrapper. Remove the code!

Thank you for the assistance.

It might be worth adjusting your documentation to mention which template to use ?

Yes, but it says in option description already. Maybe I'll highlight it in FAQ tab too.

Thank you.

@BassMan Any plans of porting it to XF 2?

No, because @AndyB already add an option with a widget. You can set this widget to thread view sidebar position.

From Similar threads overview page:

Creating optional widget:

This widget is used to display a similar threads block in the thread view sidebar.

1. Admin Control Panel -> Appearance -> Widgets
2. Widget definition = Similar threads
3. Widget key = similar_threads
4. Title = (leave blank)
5. Display in positions = Thread view: Sidebar
6. Click Save.
