Prevent Doubleposting

When a User posts into a thread where he already has the lastpost, no new post will be added. The lastpost of him will be edited and the new text is put after his first message.
This will be done until the old post is older than 24 hours (you can change this timespan yourself)

Nothing more to say about that, it's the quite same as my vb3.0 version.

This Mod should run with 3.6 as well

For vb 3.8 there are two alternative updates ;

yeah, i have to look at the ajaxprocess, so it updates the last post instead of just doing nothing until a reload.

the hack itself works as designed, just Ajax doesn'T ^^

for the ajax thing, it's kinda tricky... the quick-reply have to be interacting with the Edit ajax of the last post if you are the author of that one, so if you post from the quick-reply, it will be connected to the EDIT of the last post you've made instead of posting a new one with the quick-reply ajax...

the problem with that situation, or at least the logic behind a problem, is that if someone else posts when you use the quick-reply, your post will be merged with your last post, even if someone posted between the two... logic applyed tell that it's not a problem, because if you use the quick-reply, you don't know if someone else reply afterward, so you don't actually reply to that last one...

someone is lost here?!

i'll see with what i can come up

vBulletin should just have a function built in to autoban doubleposters. That would make everything so much easier for us all! lol

autoban doubleposters ?!... i think you did not quite understood the goal of this hack... but anyway...

Definatly keeping an eye on this one

I fixed the AJAX process by adding..

		$vbulletin->url = 'showthread.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "p=$id";
		eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_automerged', true, true));

at the bottom of the "if ($isdoublepost)" before the "} else".

You need to add a new phrase "redirect_automerged" too.


edit: It works but is printing the message twice.
