[BULLSEYE BILL]

I just noticed the Similar Thread feature on the bottom of the pages. Nice!
Thanks Barry!

Oh, there it is! I enabled the feature yesterday but looked allover for it to appear on the board. Finally gave up.

Thought I'd try it and see how useful it is. It puts another load on the server so I suspect I'll be getting another notice about using up my allotment.

Just finished viewing a thread by BjornBee (9-26-07 04:16PM) about CCD.

The "Similar Threads" shows a "flow and weather question".

What is "similar" about these posts?

This is useful vbulletin feature.

Dave : let's give it time and you will see it is nice feature ;)

There are parameters that affect the performance of this feature. I'll play around with it and see what happens. The search results are scored by relevance. A setting defines the minimum score a thread must have in a "similar threads" search to qualify as a similar thread.

The finer the setting, the greater the load on the server which means another upgrade probably.
