This article goes through how to relate an entire Document Center folder to a page using the Related Documents Widget. By doing this, as a user updates the folder, such as adding or removing documents, it will automatically update on the page housing the Related Documents Widget.

This appears to present both published and draft documents through the widget. I was hoping/thinking part of the 'dynamic' response was only posting published documents to the widget. Was I hoping wrong, or am I setting something up wrong?
Kevin, I am going to submit this to support for review. The widget should not be showing draft documents.
