Double posts

Is it me, or is it the forum?

It's the forum

the forum. I have called @Shaun who needs to restart the database but it may take a while sadly!

Once you have a kind of response from the site, rather than reposting or hitting the post reply/post thread button again, just refresh your browser (F5 if Internet Explorer) and you should see your entry.

The thing is, I've not been hitting the post button repeatedly at all. I've only ever clicked it once and I still get two posts.

Edit - I clicked it once then, hit F5 and the post comes up - but it also saves a draft of the post in the reply box underneath??

Can he not just unplug it and plug it back in?

I've checked the database engine and can't see any of the usual indicators (but have restarted it anyway) - were you posting from mobile devices?

Posting from a PC

edit - that post was normal - no double post and no draft saved in the reply box!

@Shaun The double posting seems to be going on again, messages do not appear to have been posted when they have leading to the second click on the tab.
BTW posted from a PC, not a phone/tablet.

Double posts from bog standard Windows XP. It's not a big deal but it could be better.

It's OK if you've spotted it and the posts are really there

Some seem to entirely disappear. No great loss to the world really.
