THIS TOPIC IS APPARENTLY NOT SIMILAR TO ANYTHlNG?
-
Continuing the discussion from Why the fucking fuck does discourse override the ctrl + f shortcut?:
Actually the "similar topics" thing appears to not even check anymore?
The half a dollar question is, did it disabled, regressed, or bugged?Editted for Kuro - Where's my "U IZ A SIMILAR TOPICMAKER" toaster? I didn't get one for this, nor for other topics I started and copied EXACTLY the same text as other existing topics.
Maybe they were... too similar... it's a similar topic toaster, not a duplicate toaster, after all?
-
So, did you get the toaster or not?
Filed Under: Could have at least solved the question in this topic!

I was almost proud of you for reintroducing the null characters in titles.
Then I saw you use a lower case L and was severely disappointed in your lack of effort.
-
So, did you get the toaster or not?
I didn't, that's why I posted the new topic. Otherwise it would have just remained a reply in the original topic.

So it's a setting @PJH turned off or down here only then?

No - the algorithm was actually tweaked to not return (as many) irrelevant results.
..... I think.....
Now I'm not sure, because using the exact title doesn't give me anything.

That was my point - I was copying exact topic titles and bodies and still not getting any results.

Looks like a regression. I'm not getting anything on meta.d, either.

odd - meta.d still seems to be working on the json call at least:

http://what.thedailywtf.com/topics/similar_to.json?title=Hello+hello+is+this+similar+to+anything&raw=Hello+hello+is+this+similar+to+anything
Compared to http://what.thedailywtf.com/topics/similar_to.json?title=Hello+hello+is+this+similar+to+anything&raw=Hello+hello+is+this+similar+to+anything which is always blank 100%
and of course the 500 server internal error when the topic title to search is too short, that's extra lovely: http://what.thedailywtf.com/topics/similar_to.json?title=Hello&raw=Hello

Well, I didn't get a popup. I necro'd this, which seemed to be related, if not the exact same thing:

@sam figured it (or something) out:
-
Yeah they've apparently been screwing with it for a few days now.
It seems to work on meta(most of the time) but not on anyone else's install, which probably explains half the regression bugs - it's a "WORKS FINE ON MY BOX" problem.

Just confirmed that WTF has the
max_similar_results
set to 0, so that's why it's not showing up anymore.

Thankfully.
No complaints about it, just wanted to know if it was intentional or not.

Wonder what would happen if I set it to 100....
