Link to the mod

This mod displays a list of similar topics at the bottom of the current topic page and when creating a new topic.

This mod needs MySQL 5.6 or greater. Tested on MariaDB 10.6+ and PostgreSQL 9.6+.

To change settings, go to Admin -> Modification Settings -> Similar Topics.

Looks great, using hooks, will try it :)

Shambles

Yep - looks good, and definitely worth a look :)

Working out of the box, very interesting!

One question: apart from setting the permissions in the mod's options, do we need to check anything else, permission-wise?

Bugo

Yeah, there are 2 permissions for every group:
1) Viewing of similar topics list
2) Viewing of similar topics list when creating new topic

Yes, I saw that :) What I meant was, that's the only two things I need to check, right? Because other mods have permissions options in the mod preferences but you also need to go to the permissions section in Admin...

Thanks - I wasn't aware of that. Maybe you could highlight the fact that these new permissions exist and that they aren't set by default?

Mod looks (and behaves) superbly, cheers.

Bugo

These permissions also available on mod's settings page (if it's not convenient for someone to go the permission section) :)

I can not find the seting area at modification center of admin's page. I installed by manuel. Now I can not see nothing any similar topic? Permission area has not similar topic setting. Is there a problem with related topics?

So they are. Sorry.

The "Ignored Boards" is actually showing stuff from my Recycle Bin, despite me ticking the box to hide that board. It won't be showing for regular members I guess, as it's in my Admin section.

Any topics from the Recycle Bin will be visible only to those who have access to this board.

Cool, but I ticked the box telling the mod to ignore that board.

Damned ticks; they never work

Bugo

Version 0.3: some fixes (install, check of ignoring boards etc.)

Hi Bugo,

I installed the mod and yet the feature where to show similar topics when creating new topic is not working correct. it just shows "Loading..."

is it suppose to show similar topics while writing new topic subject?

Bugo

Did you try to type any subject and then put cursor into message field?
