@dan @ben YEAH! I think I finally figured it out…

It seems to be a **Markdown parser issue** , specifically related to how the Markdown files are named.

I tested several Markdown files with different file names.

Normally, when you create a new Markdown page via the Elements tool (“Create a new Markdown page”), the files are generated like this:

```auto
2025-month-day_title.md

```

However, when Markdown files are named simply:

```auto
one.md
two.md
three.md
four.md
five.md

```

…the **related items feature does not work** , even though all parameters in the frontmatter are identical.

But as soon as the Markdown files are renamed to something like:

```auto
site-one.md
site-two.md
site-three.md
site-four.md
site-five.md

```

…the related item functionality works again.

So it looks like the parser has trouble when the file name contains **no hyphen or underscore before the first segment** , which many people might run into if they name their blog articles only after the title.

As a result, this can cause issues when generating related items, because the system expects a certain naming pattern before the first “-” or “\_”.

Attached is a Markdown file overview from my test project.

**Red = related items do NOT work**  
**Green = works**

It looks like the Markdown parser always commits to only one “version.”

I tested this by deleting all Markdown files.

After uploading them again, all the files that were previously marked red suddenly worked, and the green ones stopped working.
