 | View Full Version : Double posts? Mike - Limestone 07-01-2009, 02:33 PM I have lately had two double posts when doing a quick-replies to threads. Anyone have any idea what could cause this? A bug, or am I accidentally double-clicking the submitt button? -mike anon-e-mouse 07-01-2009, 04:20 PM I had a dupe a couple of days ago but I think it only happened the once (at least nobody has reported me :P). On reports, we have no more (or less) reports of duplicate posts than the norm. darkeden 07-01-2009, 04:37 PM could we fix this by maybe having the ability ourselves to delete one if there are more then 1 posts? SoftWareRevue 07-01-2009, 04:46 PM I don't think vB gives us that option. Mike - Limestone 07-02-2009, 01:19 AM I don't think vB gives us that option. I believe you are correct. It does not seem to be something supported by the software. :( -mike semoweb 07-02-2009, 01:53 AM Ive seen this happend before a while back but it send's what ever i wrote multiple time's seems like some type of lagg issue. JohnJ 07-02-2009, 02:05 AM Is it not possible for VB to block double posts? I could have sworn I used a forum once that wouldn't allow duplicates (maybe it was a dream :P). teck 07-02-2009, 11:36 AM Dumb question but why not limit posting to 1 post per ~5 seconds? ldcdc 07-02-2009, 12:16 PM Is it not possible for VB to block double posts? I believe I've seen a forum noticing double posts, but I don't recall if it was VB based or not. Mike - Limestone 07-02-2009, 03:35 PM Dumb question but why not limit posting to 1 post per ~5 seconds? I believe WHT has that setting on. I would surmise that it may be some kind of bug, unless a double-click-post (if that is what is occurring) somehow evades that limiter. -mike MattS 07-03-2009, 01:20 AM Yeah usually there's a flood limit to avoid dupe posts. rebl 07-10-2009, 08:22 AM I've seen other forums have an automerge feature. The second post will appear like an automatically added "Later Edit". I think this is a very good feature for those who have something to add the the 15 minutes limit has passed already.

I personally find the feature annoying :) Sheikh Ahsan 07-15-2009, 05:07 AM Lol, you should avoid it seriously or they will count in spamming :p may be you have been turned down with some bug as double loop! or you got some problem with you mouse! JLHC 07-15-2009, 05:39 AM Well I have seen such occurrence in the past with other vB forums but not WHT. Not sure whether it is a bug but it only happened at that particular forum, and it did not happen anymore now. Mike - Limestone 07-15-2009, 02:33 PM I personally find the feature annoying :) I agree. =p -mike |
