All the info I am finding is for an old version of the dashboard I believe.

Please share some knowledge

Interesting that they were removed, especially since I just got a pingback from another wordpress.com blog. Guess they were using Zemanta.

Thanks for the info!

Note that Zemanta only operates when you use the Visual editor and not the HTML editor.

If not then you are referring to "possibly related posts" which can be enabled here > Appearance > Extras

I've asked him about them, and they are supposed to be a feature. I went to where he said to go, bottom right in a new or edited post. It isn't there. I checked the screen layout and clicked every single box, still nothing.

Where do I get this 'related articles' feature?

Not the WordPress staff that I know. During the past seven years they've always cuddled up to me, whispered sweet nothings in my ear, made me feel like life was OK.

Or, maybe I was just drunk at the time.

Seriously, they're always brusque. And if you look at your Global tags under your posts, you'll see they're no longer Global; staff are making big changes, so it'll probably be a week or so till this is sorted, if history is any guide.

You can even configure it so that it only pulls posts from your own blog; of course, that way you're excluded from the worldwide network of Zemanta users.

It's one of the few free services I am an unqualified fan of.

I was not familiar with the file you mentioned. If the staff does not have a way of fixing the WordPress feature, I will certainly try using Zemanta,

Though I know you are referring to possibly related posts as found under Extras, I wonder if your were aware of Zemanta.

Under the Appearance/Extras section of my Dashboard the following has never been checked: "Hide related links on this blog, etc." Some of my posts that once had many related posts, now have none.

Is there something else I need to check for?

I've read some of the other support posts about this topic, but I did not find a relevant answer except that the staff is working on improving this feature.

I generally like the feature, but occasionally it drags in a totally irrelevant post that I would like to tell it not to include (like gospel contests for a post on science fairs). I'd like to have the ability to exclude these posts, so that the search algorithm could go on to the next hit (which may be more relevant). I think that providing blog owners the ability to check an "exclude" box for each possibly related post would help WordPress improve the relatedness search and make the bloggers happier about the feature.
