I frequently forget to reply to multiple posts in one post, so I go copy + paste the newer posts and edit them into the one I'd want to merge them with. I'm not aware of a time limit for edits (doubt there is one). I also didn't even know there was an automatic merge feature. I just do it manually in like, 2 seconds.

I guess I will, I thought there was a plugin, maybe not compatible with this version of MyBB?

Potentially. That and, whenever you add plugins, that's another thing you need updated whenever the site is updated. I believe we only just recently made a HUGE update. More plugins = more things to break, I suppose.

Is it just me or does it not auto merge ? I'm now posting from my laptop and I still see the same issue. Refer to https://sinister.ly/Thread-Leak-30-NordVPN-Accounts?pid=861569#pid861569

What was the exact timing from one post to the other?

All within a minute or 2 max.

If I'm not mistaken, I believe Oni has set It to 60 seconds.

If so and It was within one minute, It should've been merged, or a prompt saying that you've already generated your post.

I didn't get any message. Could it be increased to two? Idk why but I'm certain every other MyBB forum I've been on automatically does it. Apparently it's a setting, but this post is dated: https://community.mybb.com/thread-93213-post-680406.html#pid680406

In terms of Increasing It, @Oni Is best to answer this.

I've just tested It by posting Immediately after this post, and It did not merge. I've deleted It, hence you cannot see It. With the message, I believe It pops up If you attempt to generate the "same" post straight after.

Strange that it's disabled/not functioning but hopefully he can clear it up for us.


RE: Merge posts - Oni - 02-19-2019

It's currently disabled, as sometimes people intend to make multiple posts. I can re-enable it, though as you guys have noted the default is 60 seconds.

Double posting is against the rules though. What benefit would someone have from doing it (except perhaps acquiring more nsp) ? Re-enabling it would be nice. The multi quote feature is there but I always neglect to use it plus more threads to move on to with less manual organization Biggrin
