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, attachments will be added to the old post as well.
This will be done until the old post is older than 1 hour (you can change this timespan yourself)
by changing $do_bump in the script, you can define wether the post's time will be altered or not.

Enjoy, and don't forget to click install

Notice: If you have installed the Proxy ip to real ip conversion or Proxy Detector v3.1 Hack, then you should probably take a look at this post.

Great hack! I've installed myself, and works wonders. My mods are staring in awe. ~_^

Now, I'm wondering if it's possible to do what Baptizer suggested? I would really like a little line stating when the edit was made. Thanks again. *clicks install*

Xenon,

Thanks for this.

I am trying to tweak it so that it always merges the post, no matter what the time limit is.

So what would I need to change to prevent double posting, full stop?

Will definately click install when I can do this.

Cheers for the help in advance,

JD.

very easy, just remove that line:

AND dateline > " . (TIMENOW - 3600) . "

and that part:

PHP Code:

AND $threadinfo['lastpost'] > TIMENOW - 3600
