If the date of the doublepost is different to the date of the original post, then the date will be added to the timestamp. If the date is the same, then only the time is added. All you have done is added the date when its the same as the previous post. Which is not necessary IMO.

This is true but only if you have set the option

Bump Thread
Update the timestamp of a doublepost. to NO,

It will trigger the phrase:
On top the original date and time is shown

We sure would go for that option but, as we tested, then the new post will not appear in the list unread posts. This will only happen if we set the option Update timestamp of a doublepost to YES.

If we choose this option, the phrase will show only the time of the new and the previous post like I posted before. I have tested this with older posts of a different date, there is no date shown in the phrase. Also tested it with a new install on a testforum, same result, no date is shown. Is there an option that I am missing?

------------------------EDIT----------------------

It seems to be a problem with the forum language that is set.
If the forum language is set to original english, the date is shown, our forum is set to Dutch.
Maybe somebody else recognizes this and can tell how to solve this?

----------------------EDIT-2--------------------------

It seems that if there is a locale set the date will not show in the phrase as I described before.
If I leave the locale empty and all date overrides it works like it should.

Sorry if this was asked already. When it automerges the doublepost the date it uses is the servertime. I am 7 hours behind. How do I get it to show based on my time settings?

You dont, there is no timezone facility in the seperator functionality.

So I might as well delete this mod then. =/

Is there a similar mod with that feature?

Your choice. There is no released mod that does it.
I think the only other DP mod does something like "Posted x days, hours, mins ago" rather than the actual date and time.

That's awesome. Thank you.

Hi Paul.

Great mod, BTW.

We are running version 3.8.005 Prevent and plugin DoublePost 2 consistently causes a number of slow MySQL queries from this mod in the mysql-slow.log

We have been tracing a possible database deadlock issue and have been using the mysql-slow.log to look at our slow queries.

Did I miss any discussion about this in the thread?

Any thoughts?

FYI, Paul... here is an example slow query that we see in the logs:

That query is not from this modification.
