A couple of my forum guests are having problems posting a message. Although they are able to post most of the time, they sometimes get the following message:
'message cannot be posted, because it has already been posted'

Has anyone seen this before?

Thank you,
Mark

You get this message if you try to post exactly the same message more than once. It could be that they are trying to post the same message in mutiple forums.

Thank you for responding -boRg-.

They are posting the same message in multiple forums. Is there a reason why this isn't allowed?

I am testing this application for use as part of a design approval process. After I upload a PDF proof, my manager usually posts a reply of "This proof is good". She usually does that to about 10-20 proofs a day. Should I tell her to alter each post a little, or is there a way to allow this in the code?

Thanks again.

The reason that the same post can not be posted multiple times is incase someone hits the submit button twice and also to prevent spammers from posting the same message multiple times.

You will have to ask your manager to change each post slightly so that it is accepted.

I have updated the warning message in my forum so that others know of this feature.

Your applications are fantastic. Thank You.
