The Similar Topics which show at the bottom of a thread. How does that work? When the "The 128 drama!" thread was in the Engine Tech section it showed the old 128 threads. After "The 128 drama!" thread was moved to the David Vizard forum they no long show.

"Similar Topics" (currently) only worked back to topics upto 5 years of age. But that's not the issue here.

There's also setting on which (sub)forums to search in for similar topics, upto a certain percentage of similarity.
A few of the Vendor-subforums weren't set yet to include them. This was most likely the issue here.

There's also another setting related to the database 'engine' (MyISAM/InnoDB) which was not optimized.
I think the Similar Topics should now work better and also older topics will be included now.

Thanks! Some threads are showing up now but they are all older threads / more than 5 year. There are some threads with 128 in the title from the last few years which are not showing up. Does matter if some or all of these thread that are not showing were locked?

Thanks,

I don't think locked threads are excluded. At least there's no setting for that.
