The given Related Post Widget has two major problems. First, thumbnails have to be embedded in the post, and it seems they can't be links from outside sites. So, it takes more time and space to put them in.
The other is that the related posts shown are just based on a post's "labels," and things like "search description," heading (h1), and other parts of a post, if possible, should be used to refine wat people see. For example, I have a fan-trailers of the Hitman movies on here, but my reviews of them aren't shown as related posts, and vice-versa. Videos only lead to more videos, and that only goes so far, when most of the content on there is writing.
Can you guys build something to fix this, please? A lot of us could really use it.
Thank You,
Eddie

Hi,
I just thought of something else. It might be something you already have, but I wanted to be sure.
I need to encourage more engagement with my audience, so I was just wondering what's the best widget to use so that visitors can suggest and vote on stuff for me to talk/write about and make? Similar to your Widget Wishlist and Company Man's Idea Board (https://companymanideas.com/). It's through Disqus, so I'll look into that, too
From,
Eddie

Hi Helga,
Thank you. If I come up with anything, I'll be sure to do that. Figuring out SEO and technical stuff right now, but that's probably pretty far outside of what you guys work on(?)
Also, you guys are free to tour my sites (Why We Watch and Personal Portfolio) for ideas too.
Thanks Again,
Eddie

Hello Eddie,
Thanks a lot for submitting your idea and for all the details provided!
This widget would be a really handy solution, I agree, and I really hope we will be able to think over its implementation in the future.
And yes, if you come up with any other ideas, you're most welcome to leave them all here in the comments. It will be a huge help for the dev team :)
Thank you very much for your help and contribution!
