Prevent Doubleposting is one of the best Hacks ever.

Not when people are replying to specific posts.

I still believe that you should be able to reply to specific posts, not forcing you to "automerge" 2 posts.

I agree with Merk.

I really dislike the "automerge" function. What is the logic behind it? Is it suppose to save space? When was this hack implemented?

Great work Kirby, looks like that did the trick. No problems over the past hour of testing.

Thanks again for your time.

Actually, I like auto merge for 90% of the time because of bumps, but I heartily agree about responding to posts.

My comments were in response to a post prior to mine (since deleted) that made my post look like a loon out of place talking to thin air -- not a response to a merged post that came after me.

Yes I forgot about the "bumping" problem, that is why the automerge was developed. It's a shame a few have to ruin it for the rest, perhaps those that bump should be put into a "special" user group and the automerge would only merge their posts.

Hi Kirby,

I have been testing your plugin more carefully and it looks like threadfpdata_presave is not required.

Thanks again for a great plugin.
