...more recent posts
Noticed a lot of double (and triple) posts lately. I guess when the system is sluggish this happens more frequently. If you write a post, click 'post', and then nothing happens for some time it is almost always the case that the post went through, and the system is stalled while redirecting you back to the page to view your handiwork. (Why is this so? I have no idea, but this is almost always the case.)
In any case, I added a little bit to the post script so that it checks the present post against any posts you have made in the last 60 seconds. If it is identical it will alert you that it is a double post and give you a link to just take you right to the page.
I guess there might be some crazy situation where you really did need to post the exact same thing? I guess we'll talk about this if it ever comes up. Hopefully this won't be an issue. You can always just wait 60 seconds. Anyway, I hope this is a help rather than a nuisance. Let me know what you think.
Still on the trail of an elusive bug. I know this happens occasionally, but try as I might, I cannot reproduce the event under laboratory conditions. Seems like very occasionaly when deleting a post, instead of actually being deleted the post will show up a bit further back (like if you scroll back using 'older posts...' it might show up on the next page back.) This has happened to me once (I think) and to jim louis. If anybody notices anything like this please try to contact me before you do anything to fix it. I need to see an example "in the wild" to help figure out what the hell is happening. Feel free to call me on my cell if this happens. I really need to find an example of this behavior (6465263857.) Thanks.
