I'm developing a site in drupal 7 that needs a related content block. The problem is that I tried Similar entries and Similar by terms modules but it looks like they are not compatible with views 7.x-3.0 I'm using, yet.

There is an error message when I install both modules and in the bug reports I found posts with errors just like mine but without good solutions.

I was thinking until the modules are ready, maybe, I can, somehow, use views and show random content based on the taxonomy term in the node and not show the current node.

Is there a way to use contextual filters and use arguments from taxonomy in the current node?

If you know some other way or module to achieve something similar please point me in the right direction.
