--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This modification has been withdrawn.
vBulletin 4.0.x and 4.1.x are no longer supported.

The feature is already built into the core vBulletin 4.2.x code.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This is a current version of the popular modification, originally developed for the early 3.x series by Xenon.

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.
Other spacer choices provided are no spacer, a default, or a custom spacer.

Spacer Colour - allows you to set the colour of the spacer between merged posts (if one is enabled).

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.

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

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

IP Address Check - Specifies if the poster IP should be checked, if enabled, the post will only be merged if the user and ip address are the same.

All settings are located in vBulletin Options > Doublepost Prevention.

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

Well I didnt actually notice that. :erm:

Thats a bit of an absurd value IMO, however, if you really want, I believe you could simply put 0.5 minutes.

It's not working when you quote (yourself) and for some reason it's not working in a forum that's not public like a private forum.

Wouldn't it also be nice to have an option to always prevent double post? I don't want to put a time in there and if I take a really large number sometimes it will make a double post anyhow.

Next to that I really love this mod and I think it has made my need as a Moderator a lot less it's the best extra feature I have on vB!

There are no built in restrictions on private forums or quoting yourself.

Then there must be another reason why it's not working for me..

Also when there is an attachment in the post it won't do the merging.. not for the previous post and not if I add another post after it..

That is by design.

Just tried to install this. Got this msg:

Quote:
This product is not compatible with version 4.1.0 of vBulletin. (Compatible starting with 4.0.0 / Incompatible with 4.0.99 and greater)
As far as I can tell, this is the only Doublepost prevent mod for 4.0x. Would like to (officially) see it updated for 4.1, which is out now.

The dependancies will need to be updated on all my releases - I will be looking at it as soon as I can.

I'm missing this. Is there any way for me to mess with the current one and get it installed?
