Here Is a Good Solution Folks:

I copied all the contents of Template : mrnasesimilarthreadcheck_header
Then I edited Template: newthread
I put my cursor right below $postpreview and pasted the contents I copied from Template: mrnasesimilarthreadcheck_header

I saved it.

Now The Mod works perfectly. Muwahahahaha Enjoy!

What's the thing called in vbulletin options? I can't find it. I only see it installed in the manage products!

can anyone help.

You are talking about vB 4? I cant found $postpreview, I have only {vb:raw postpreview} and paste this template doing nothing...

I am on VB3.84 , The option is in VBoptions, Message Posting and Editing Options, towards bottom in that category, I also modified my /includes/functions_search.php , searched for LIMIT and changed 5 to 7 on 2 parameters to make it 7 results instead of 5, of course you will have to update counters in maintenance and update your similar threads again for the new amount to show. ENJOY!

With the above you can also put a if condition on it to exclude or include certain forums or usergroups. <if condition="in_array($forumid, array(1,2,3))"> or not in forum <if condition="!in_array($forumid, array(1,2,3))">

Installed and working on mousepad.mouseplanet.com. I changed the template to use the newer version of jQuery. I would like to have it only search the specified forums but do not want to hard-code those forumIDs into the templates. How can I reference the array that the AdminCP code uses for the list of excluded forumIDs?

you can do usergroups which only have access to certain forums

Hey there someone can fix this?

Have you uploaded all the files to the correct place?, what version of vb are you using?

Any chance of getting this on vBulletin 4?

4.1.3 no working ? :(

thx alot

but can i use this hack with another idea like stop spammer or add same function to this plugin

Didn't work for 3.8.7

I want this for 4.0!!

does work with vb4?

Have you tried it with vb4? just looking at the source code (and i'm no guru! :)) it doesn't look version specific.

Works fine for me on vb3.8.7

Hoping a new release is made for vb4... perhaps with a few options in the ACP?

Hello,

seems not to work on vbulletin 3.8.7 - there is no "Check for similar threads?"-Option in the AdminCP.

Is this available for vB 4?

any possibility to get for vb 4.1.2 or upper

look carefully, it's not in it's own category :)

Wondering the same thing?

Anyone have an answer? Can we all get together and pay someone to do it?

I am in, can we find someone to code this for vb4.
I am not sure but can we post it under Request for Paid Services.

For vB 4, the same one like this here is the xml attached
If you have Auto tagged modification installed from here (vb org( the attached xml doesn't work

If you do have the Auto tagging modification installed then use this mod instead:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=233309

It should work, if i remember rightly it was one of the ajax features in the auto tag mod that needs turning off (or in this mod cant remember which) and they live happily together :)

Simon, could you let me know which one and what to do? As i have tried and read how to make them work together but not able to.

It's been quite a while but in the auto tagger i believe i turned ajax for new thread off and it all worked ok !

Finally got it done, works wonderful.

Hi nit233,

I also need this Add-On for my vB 4.1.11.
Would you mind sharing how you get it work?

If this will be a paid Product for vB 4, just drop me a line.

Greetings,
Bryan

To anyone interested, I've created a vB4 version which is available here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=281113

Can You rebuild this plugin to work with "Automatic thread tagger" (with "Ajax" function active).
Now if You have active "Ajax" in "Automatic thread tagger" searching for similar threads doesn't work.

Is there a way to get this addon working with vB 4.2.0??

Thx.

does not work on 4.2.0 patch level 2

Sir this is for vb 3.8. you are in the wrong section!


Thanks , very usefull! This is also one of the greatest addons on here!

Not working on vBulletin 3.8.7

Its no were to be find in the "vBulletin Options" and then "Check for similar threads?"

Needs to be updated.... But a very nice mod!

Works fine for me!!!!

I musta give it one more try! Lets see! Thanks for your response!

Hi Does this mod work with 4.x version?

Is there a similar mod for 4.x version?

IMPORTANT NOTICE

This is for people who cannot find the options, all I help you out with something that took me hours to find because of a simple wrong by the developer

The developer is says, Go to your vBulletin settings and search for 'Check for similar threads?'.

Which is Totally wrong... Took me hours to find out!!

Here is what you should do after its Installed:

1: Go to your ADMINCP,
2: Click on vBulletin Options, and Choose vBulletin Options
3: No you should look for "Message Posting and Editing Options"
4: Now you should be in the right place, Look for "Check
for similar threads?" And Wolla!

Enable it from there, and you are good to go! Go back and try to make a new thread!
Good luck
