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 ;

2. The one everyone complains about - no ajax refresh (unless you alter the time stamp, then you get two versions of the same post).


So, since I wanted this on our forum I have fixed both locally - this is what I have done.


1. To fix the timestamp ;

Find ;

PHP Code:

// set info 


Add below it ;

PHP Code:

$dataman2->set('dateline', TIMENOW); 


2. To fix the ajax issue, use this nasty hack ;

Find ;

PHP Code:

    if ($isdoublepost)
    {
        $id = $doublepost['postid'];
        $dataman->save();
        
        //now add edited by
        if ($dp_settings['editedbymsg'] != '')
        {
            $vbulletin->db->query_write("
                REPLACE INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "editlog (postid, userid, username, dateline, reason)
                VALUES ($id, " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . ", '" . addslashes($vbulletin->userinfo['username']) . "', " . TIMENOW . ", '" . addslashes($dp_settings['editedbymsg']) . "')
            ");
        }
    } 


Replace with ;

PHP Code:

    if ($isdoublepost)
    {
        // Ugly hack added by Paul M to fix ajax merge //
        if (!$vbulletin->GPC['ajax'])
        {
            $id = $doublepost['postid'];
            $dataman->save();
        
            if ($dp_settings['editedbymsg'] != '')
            {
                $vbulletin->db->query_write("
                REPLACE INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "editlog (postid, userid, username, dateline, reason)
                VALUES ($id, " . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . ", '" . addslashes($vbulletin->userinfo['username']) . "', " . TIMENOW . ", '" . addslashes($dp_settings['editedbymsg']) . "')
                ");
            }
        }
        $vbulletin->url = 'showthread.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'] . "p=$post[postid]#post$post[postid]";
        eval(print_standard_redirect('redirect_postthanks', true, false));
    } 


Seems to work okay for me, feel free to try it.

That fix was for the file edit version, Xenon dropped that in favour of the plugin version now available. There is no ajax fix for the plugin version (which is why I don't use it, I've stayed with the file edit version )

But they both show the same time, Paul.

BUT it would be great if you edited the description to include the known issues and bugs

thanks!

[Xenon]

Well, there aren't any known bugs right now, just not all features from vb3.0 are imported...

That's because whoever it was posted twice inside one minute - seconds are not included.
