# Related articles

Related articles help readers navigate between articles the author selects that relate to the article. For example, you can link a troubleshooting article to its corresponding setup guide so readers can easily find context. The added articles appear at the bottom of the article on the Knowledge base site.

> [!NOTE]
> ** NOTE
> 
> - Only published articles can be used as related articles.
> - The related articles appear only in the Knowledge base site.
> - The related articles will not appear in the Knowledge base widget.

### Dual linking

If the **Dual linking** checkbox inside the Related articles panel is checked, the current article is also referenced as "Related" in each of the added articles. This means the relationship is bidirectional — both articles will show each other in their respective Related articles sections on the Knowledge base site.

### Auto relate

Turn on the **Auto relate this article to all related articles** toggle on the **Article settings** panel to automatically link the active article to other related articles. When enabled, this article will appear in the Related articles section of every article it is linked to — without needing to manually add it from each of those articles.

### FAQ

#### If a reader doesn't have access to an article, will it appear under the Related articles section in the Knowledge base site?

No, if a reader lacks access to a specific article, the link to that article will not appear in the **Related articles** section of any other articles in the Knowledge base site. Only articles accessible to the reader will be displayed in this section.

#### Why are related articles appearing on the article page, though no related articles are configured manually?

This can happen because the **Dynamic Related Article Recommendation** (AI setting) is enabled, which auto-populates related articles regardless of manual configuration.

To resolve this:

1. Navigate to **Settings** (**) > **AI settings** in the left navigation bar in the **Knowledge base portal**.
2. In the left navigation pane, navigate to **Eddy AI settings**.
3. Expand the **AI search suite** accordion and turn off the **Dynamic related article recommendation** toggle.

Once the **Dynamic related article recommendation** is turned off, related articles will not appear unless you manually add them.
