It would be great if the forum used AI in the search function or create function to identify similer to . . well there it is in the create new topics. I am so used to just closing pop ups that I was closing them before realizing that they were updating based on what I changed. Would be better if it display possible similer topics below the input and display fields of the create new topic component.
Or better yet when someone goes to hit reply it forces them to look at similer topics before it posts. If the click on a similer topic it suggests how they could automatically move the details the intially entered into the topic they were creating to the reply to the new topic.
