One member regularly makes double posts

Featured Replies

Posted

I have 1 member using Edge on Windows 10 that regularly (at least once a day) makes double posts, today he made a triple post.

Any suggestions I can offer him to have this stop happening?

Thanks

Is he rapidly clicking the submit button?

I presume not, but I tried that here when I made this post and it only posted once.

He confirmed he only clicks once.

4.1.12 release notes, not sure if it applies here, for example if you're not on a windows server

Additional Information

Important Fixes

In addition to many smaller bug fixes and performance improvements, the following important fixes are included:

  • Support departments in Commerce could not be deleted.
  • Member groups could not be deleted.
  • The summary when submitting a calendar event may show the wrong time.
  • Double posts may occur on Windows servers.
  • Using very high limits for the number of questions per poll may cause errors.
  • Setting up the REST API may fail.

Thanks @DesignzShop, I thought I remembered reading about preventing double posts somewhere.  Sadly I am on a linux server for this site.

Make sure SW they clear their browser cookie cache and have them attempt it again. I had several users with issues last upgrade and this worked for all of them. Not sure if it applies here, but always worth a shot.

Thanks again, I regularly suggest they do that with IPS.  It's a real pain, and I get a lot of grief over it.

I'll suggest they try this.

Is this in creating a new topic or a reply to an already created topic?

Creating new.

They must be accidentally (or not knowingly) clicking the button multiple times as that's the only way I can reproduce this.

OK, thanks.  They did confirm they are not doing this though. 

It only seems to happen with this one user, so I'm not worried, nor is he.  

Try this.

Thanks, I will!

I wonder why this isn't stock?

  • 6 months later...

what if you set the flood control - does that stop it?
