This plugin checks to see if there are already similar threads when we write new topic (using AJAX).
If yes, we can simply check them.
Admin can configure:- Additional (X)HTML code before related threads list (in global template)
- Fulltext / LIKE search mode
- Minimum length of phrase
- Open links on new / the same window or tab
- Excluded forums
- Excluded words
- Search on the same forum
- Max search threads age
- Display forum info
- Delay from press last key to search
- Change all plugin templates

Great idea. Will prevent a lot of double posts
I saw something similar on vB forum.
Well-done!
i tested this in my forum but i cannot get this working..

Does this plugin need something like mybb editor?
This should be very useful
Could you elaborate a bit on how much extra load that would cause on a large forum?
We use this on polish MyBB support (~61.000 posts, ~12.000 threads) and there aren't any problems with server load. When you use fulltext mode, queries are very fast.
@bestblackhatforum:
I checked this - plugin was installed and activated correctly on your forum, but there is a problem with you javascript files: firebug informs about 5 errors.
there was a 1.4* plugin with similar function but without this "filter" to exclude private forums.
Thanks, useful feature
Great plugin, thanks a lot!
One thing: I have upgraded to the latest 1.1 version, but when I check for "Plugin Updates" in my AdminCP, it still says that I need to upgrade to 1.1. Anything I can do to clear this?
Version 1.2:
- Add loading indicator option
- Add option to search in the same forum
- Add option to get forum data
- Move link data to templates
- Move additional code to templates
@Kodaks:
Now it should be ok.

Thanks for the update.
I upgraded my plugin by deactivating, then re-uploading all the files, then re-activating plugin. The plugin now does not seem to work. Nothing is displayed on New Thread when I start typing in similar thread names. The old version worked fine, and I made no changes to the settings.
