As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This is an updated version of the popular modification, previously released by Xenon. It is released with his kind permission.

Basically, if member posts in a thread where they were the previous last poster, then if the conditions are met, their new post will be auto-merged into the previous post instead of creating a new "double" post.

A number of options are provided ;

Time Limit - if more than xxx minutes have passed since the last post, no merge is done.

Timestamp Spacer - if enabled, a timestamped spacer is added between the old post text and the new post text.

Post Timestamp Update - if enabled the newly merged post will have its post time updated to the new time, otherwise it retains the time of the original post.

Spacer Colour - allows you to set the colour of the spacer between merged posts.

Usergroup exceptions - Allows you to exempt certain usergroups from the doublepost merges.

Forum exceptions - Allows you to exempt certain forums form the doublepost merges.

All settings are located in vBulletin Options > Doublepost Prevention.


To install just unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.


History:

v3.8.001 : First Release for vB 3.8.
v3.8.002 : Phrased the post separater.
v3.8.003 : Added JS Template - removing need to edit quick reply javascript file.
v3.8.004 : Updated spacer options.
v3.8.005 : Updated timestamp spacer to fix issue with large merge times.

Today I've noticed something strange with. If try to post the same thing (same post) it didn't check as usual for a duplicate post and it's added to the original message. Can someone confirm this ?

Turn them on one by one until it breaks ?

Yeah, but how do I uninstall the thing it did? Because when I disable it, it doesn't come undone.

Also, is there any good way to narrow the search? Because I have a few dozen products installed, including arcade, url rewrite, Itrader... It would take a long time to disable and check all of them, and members would notice.

Disabling and uninstalling this are the same thing as its purely plugin based. The most likely reason it breaks is either you have a custom style (with custom editor_clientscript) or some other plugin is editing the editor clientscript. Impossible to say. This appends code to the editor_clientscript template (code).

It works fine, and has no effect on server load, so I would suggest you look at your server more closely.

In think that could be a problem with some of my users connection (bouncing or something) because even when I was not using your mod, I've noticed some double (exactly the same) posts for some users, even with Vb flood checking like you mentioned. But always when I tried to reproduce the only thing I can get is vB message of double post.
