tried
after enabling just an message nothing else
so removed aswell

Hey, i installed it as well but after activating it it gives absolutely no result back... any ideas?

3.6.12 vB

After some initial difficulties I got this hack to work in 3.6.8

Had the same problems as many others, the first being finding the area to enable/disable the hack. After a bit of searching I found it.

VBULLETIN OPTIONS > MESSAGE POSTING AND EDITING OPTIONS.

Second to last setting, "check for similar threads" (set to YES)

So I turned the hack on and got the message when posting new thread indicating that it would search for similar threads but it never did. After reading every reply to this hack I followed the advice of others with the same issue. Rebuilding seach index did not solve the issue, but upon reverting jquery from 1.2.6 to 1.1.3.1 (version referenced by the author) the hack works fine.

The only two notable issues are that it suggests some rather old threads and you have to either click in the thread title box or move to the post text box to execute the search query. The latter issue is not really a big deal but I would like to limit the threads retrieved to the last 30 or 60 days. Might be something I can do with my regular search options to help out with this but it would be nice if a future version of the hack had some options to direct or limit the search.

I use fulltext search on my board and have went from 4 letter word minimum to 3 letter to see if it improves on search relevence, but with my size board this could ultimately be too resource hungry.

Overall I do like the hack, and the concept sofar, and it should save on at least some of the same old questions being posted over and over.

thank u for this
i have a persian forum when i crate a persian languge topic this mod dos not wordk :(
i am very angry :(

great

Working for me on vb 3.8rc1 with no modifications needed.

Hello, I've used this mod for quite some time and always through it did a great job. But someone today contacted me with a question and I don't know the answer. They were creating a new thread with the title Red sphagnum and some suggestions came up but were all pretty old, newest of the 5 being from 08-28-2005... Even though there was a thread titled sphagnum that was created on 11-22-2008. So we're confused on why that topic would not have been shown instead of the older ones. When I was testing it, I used his thread topic and sure enough it didn't show that thread from Nov. but it also isn't showing the new thread that he created today with the exact title I was using to test it... I'll add a screen show of this with the newer topic that was not shown in the results to the right...
Thanks for your time- it's a great mod!

Also- I'm using this on 3.7.... any word on if it works on 3.8?? If not, any plans to make it?
Thanks,
Andrew

I have been using this mod, and also have some problems with the 3.8 update (but don't know of this mod is causing our problems).

Will uninstalling the plugin/product change the edited files back to their original state?

Wait a second, I'll test it on vB 3.8.0 :)

When you uninstall it, it's completely gone.
