check for duplicate posts?

[Funhaven]

Hi, I have tried searching and come up empty. When we posted on VB it automatically checked for duplicate posts and since switching to Xenforo I can not find where to turn this feature on or is it an another add-on?
Thank you.

There is similar threads functionality available with XFES 2.2.

ES 2.2 Thread 'Enhanced Search 2.2 - Similar Threads'

Jul 22, 2020

In the beginning, XenForo Enhanced Search (XFES) was intended to be a simple drop-in replacement for MySQL full text search, primarily aimed at large forums whose operation would potentially suffer when attempting to search very large database tables.

As a drop-in, XFES only made use of the enhanced search index and speed for the formal search system, but with version 2.2 we are starting to leverage more of the power afforded by the Elasticsearch back-end.
