Thanks for your ongoing help. I tired and I copied and pasted and here is what happens. It runs the actual BB code and sentence into the first post.

example
just me doing a test of posting* *Auto Merged Post;*[dl]*[/dl]hey this is my second test of a double post

It seems that whatever code I place in "Double Post Spacer" appear as text in the post. And does not move the second post down a line or two.

example
First post[dl]Second test post

ok thank you. I got it.

For those who want to exclude the Admin ONLY from the PRevent Double Posting Feature use the below code:

If you wish to add more Usergroups, simply enter their IDs inside the Array Parenthesis (separating by commas), like this:

This was posted way earlier int he Thread, but I added to the last post just in case someone installs it and needs the info (to save them some searching)

Thanx for posting - but where exactly do you add the code?

Jacquii.

PoetJA-1975, no problem ... you paste the code here:

AdminCP > vBulletin Options > Doublepost Preventing > Additional Condition (experts only)

Nice! Thanx very much!

Jacquii.

Hello guys -- reading all these posts has made me more confused. I should learn how to code. Here is my problem - i downloaded the mod. There are no errors being displayed. But it doesnt work right.

wHen a member doubleposts within the Timespan (eg two weeks) the post is merged with his/her earlier post. But it remains as aN individual post. if this is not clear then this is what i am saying.

Member makes post A. He then makes post B in the Timespan. Next Post A & B get merged as one post in their own window. But post B still remains in its own window. So instead of one merged post you get Post A & B(merged) and Post B(the doublepost also appearing) in its own window

How do i get this resolved? Since many use this mod how did they resolve this? Are there any codes and where should i place them? Most important - how do i put a separation or an actual line separating the two posts?

Should I try Andreas plugin (post #157 in this thread) instead? (Made in 2005)
I am a noob so please go easy on me.

Andreas plugin is working great for me on 3.5.4. I had too many errors using the other one.

i will try that then and post what happens. i am on 3.67 PL1

EDIT:
Yes- Andreas plugin worked on 3.67 PL1 -- just fine.

But it has the same problems some mentioned - it puts the new post on the same line as the old one without separating them.

Andreas suggested using a line separator yet for someone who knows nothing about coding where in XML the file do i place this line separator.

And how can i exclude administrators from being affected by the mod? can someone help me here with the codes to use and where to put it in the xml file (andreas plugin is attached to post #157)?

Thanks!!!
