Users will now see a list of related topics at the bottom of a thread.  :cheers: 


These should provided additional related context to threads of a similar or related nature.

Is there a cut off age of the threads? I know this forum isn't terribly old yet, but other forums have people resurrecting threads 15 to 20 years old after finding them at the bottom  :o

Not at the moment no, it's a useful add on on three fronts.


1. I like how it will surface old threads for indexing and increase the footprint in search engines.

2. We can optionally split new responses off in old threads and effectively start new ones, especially if the advice has changed substantially.

3. It may entice old users back into the fold via notifications too.


There are a lot of useful existing threads here which just fail to see the light of the day, so hopefully this will help surfacing good stuff.
