Yep, agree that it could be worded better - basically that means to see if any other threads have info that you can use to solve your issue. But when posting, this (from the forum welcome) applies:
Posting your own topic is smiled upon. Unless you are using the same version of WordPress on the same physical server hosted by the same hosts with the same plugins, theme & configurations as the original poster, do not post in someone else's thread. Start your own topic.
