Dear Professor Chen,
I am a new user of citespace, and for practice I am using the demo dataset (terrorism).

I start the clustering function, and in the upper right corner, I see "#clusters 87", but in the summary table of clusters (Clusters > Summary Table | Whitelists) there are only 8 clusters.

What am I doing wrong?

I am using version 6.2.R6 basic (mac).

Thank you in advance,
Best regards

You didn't do anything wrong. By default, CiteSpace shows clusters on the largest connected component only. If you want to see more clusters, use the menu Filters and adjust the setting for Show the Largest k Connnected Components, then repeat the process to refresh the display.
