This application automatically displays similar existing topics while a member is creating a new topic, helping prevent duplicates and encouraging better discussions. As soon as the user finishes typing the topic title, the app searches the community using the IPS Core Search engine and shows an expanded list of relevant topics directly on the posting screen. Some benefits for your community include Elasticsearch compatibility, fewer duplicate topics, improved content discovery, enhanced posting quality, and cleaner forums with reduced moderation effort. How it works: User starts creating a new topic When the title field loses focus, the app: Builds a search query Executes a Core Search request Matching topics are shown instantly below the title field Users can review existing discussions before posting Settings: Number of topics to display Minimum topic title length Can view Similar Topics View Similar Topics in (specific forums)

This application adds a Share This Post link to posts that are not visible to guests, to easily and quickly copy the post URL. Because IPS does not provide this option, users must manually copy the post URL from the post date, meaning registered users lose the ability to easily share posts when guest access is restricted.

This application utilizes Perplexity AI or Google Gemini AI to generate replies to new topics automatically. Replies are processed via a background task (running every 5 minutes) to prevent delays during topic creation. All automated replies are written in the same language as the original post, helping to increase engagement and responsiveness across the community. Perplexity AI is a paid artificial intelligence platform focused on delivering fast, accurate, and well-sourced answers. It combines large language models with real-time web search to produce clear and concise responses grounded in up-to-date information. Initially, only English is supported, with additional languages planned for future releases.
