duplicate topic and search issues

So I wanted to post something. however needed to specify a target forum which I forgot so it errored out. So I select the forum and then resubmit which then it tells me that there is a duplicate topic out there which I cannot find to save my life. tried changing the title as well as adding a little more to the body and get the same thing.

Also trying to search for a topic and could only search in the community??? as no forum posts showed up in the search. not sure what Im doing wrong here.

Whatcha looking for?

finally got my questions to post…after I retyped it.

I’ll have to give this one some thought – the duplicate check was updated so it is done against memcache rather than looking up the post in the database. (with a query that will never use an index)

Right now the cached post is stored for an hour but I don’t think anyone would want to wait an hour before trying again.
