Anyone know what vBulletin mod DP uses for "Similar Threads"

    Just curious if anyone knows what mod DP uses for their 'Similar Threads' section. What I'm referring to is when you're viewing a posted thread and scroll all the way to the bottom you see 5 'Similar Threads".

    I'm pretty new to vBulletin and not sure if that may just be in the admincp and I have to enable it somewhere... If that's the case where would I locate that option? Thanks!

    Admin Control Panel > vBulletin Options

    You can find the option there.

    There are 2 settings that you have to configure. 1 is 'Thread Display Options (showthread)' and the other 1 is 'Message Searching Options'. After you set both of these settings to Yes, update the counter.

    Thanks for your reply. I have done this and the similar threads actually show inside the first post of the thread. How do I get them to show in their own box like on DP please?

    It should display in its own box by default.

    Probably you have installed a mod which display similar threads under the first post.
