Prevent Doubleposting

This is why i really want a Mini-Hack section here, please Chen

What this hack does:
When a User posts to 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 would not be done, if he has an attachment in his new post or the old post is older than 1 hour (you can change this timespan yourself )

Known bugs: None

Hope someone can use it, i do

Believe this hack includes just 1!! codehack.

How about adding an Edit Reason, too (Like Firefly's Edit Reason hack)? That way we will know that they added to the message instead of just editing it.

Ya can there be somewhere where it would say DOUBLE POSTING FEATURE and then under that it would show the message instead of just having a Break in the post and then the new edited message.

Can you show the update. Maybe it has somehting to do with the cache. This is all i see

PHP Code:

      $lastpost = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM post WHERE threadid = '$threadid' ORDER BY postid DESC");
      if($lastpost[userid]!=$bbuserinfo[userid] || (time()-$lastpost[dateline])>3600 || ($attachmentid and !$foruminfo[moderateattach])) {
            $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO post (postid,threadid,title,username,userid,dateline,attachmentid,pagetext,allowsmilie,showsignature,ipaddress,iconid,visible) VALUES (NULL,'$threadid','".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."','".addslashes($postusername)."','$bbuserinfo[userid]','".time()."','$attachmentid','".addslashes($message)."','$allowsmilie','$signature','$ipaddress','$iconid','$visible')");
      } else {
            $DB_site->query("UPDATE post SET pagetext='".addslashes($lastpost[pagetext]."\n\n".$message)."' WHERE postid=".$lastpost[postid]);
            if ($visible) {
            $goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=".$lastpost[postid]."#post".$lastpost[postid];
              } else {
            $goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";
              }
              eval("standardredirect("".gettemplate("redirect_postthanks")."","$goto");");  
              exit;     
      }

Normally you can simply add this for yourself.

I won't add it to the hack because it's no standart in vb, so who hasn't installed chens hack would get an error.

I haven't installed chens hack so i don't know exactly how it works, but as i think adding one line and changing one should be enough

[BigJohnson]

bump. we both posted at the same time hehe.

@Big: hmm, must have something to do with the cache thats what i have in the attachment:

PHP Code:

      $lastpost = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM post WHERE threadid = '$threadid' ORDER BY postid DESC");
      if($lastpost[userid]!=$bbuserinfo[userid] || (time()-$lastpost[dateline])>3600 || ($attachmentid and !$foruminfo[moderateattach])) {
            $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO post (postid,threadid,title,username,userid,dateline,attachmentid,pagetext,allowsmilie,showsignature,ipaddress,iconid,visible) VALUES (NULL,'$threadid','".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."','".addslashes($postusername)."','$bbuserinfo[userid]','".time()."','$attachmentid','".addslashes($message)."','$allowsmilie','$signature','$ipaddress','$iconid','$visible')");
      } else {
            $editedbysql="";
            if ($showeditedby and $lastpost[dateline]<(time()-($noeditedbytime*60))) {
               $editedbysql=",edituserid='$bbuserinfo[userid]',editdate='".time()."'";
            }            

            $DB_site->query("UPDATE post SET pagetext='".addslashes($lastpost[pagetext]."\n\n".$message)."'".$editedbysql." WHERE postid=".$lastpost[postid]);
            if ($visible) {
            $goto="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&postid=".$lastpost[postid]."#post".$lastpost[postid];
              } else {
            $goto="forumdisplay.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&forumid=$threadinfo[forumid]";
              }
              eval("standardredirect("".gettemplate("redirect_postthanks")."","$goto");");  
              exit;     
      } 


Ya can there be somewhere where it would say DOUBLE POSTING FEATURE and then under that it would show the message instead of just having a Break in the post and then the new edited message.

UPDATE post SET pagetext='".addslashes($lastpost[pagetext]."\n\n".$message)

replace the \n\n with whatever you want

O thanks so much worked amazingly well.

[Neo]

amazing someone finally made this hack Oo... i had this like 4 month ago funny. Nice job.

[Xenon]

and i has also wondered why no one has made that already

[X-Fan]

I'm not finding this:

PHP Code:

(NULL,'$threadid','".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($title))."' 


in newreply.php - I've got:

PHP Code:

(NULL,'$threadid','".addslashes(htmlspecialchars($subject))."' 


Where $title should be. Any suggestions?
