Merge posts - Defeat - 11-18-2017

I've mostly been on here on my phone and sometimes I'll want to reply to multiple posts, but I'll forget to multiquote so I'll double post unattendedly. I thought the merge without a certain time period was automatic, but I've realized I was really just double posting without being more careful with my multiquotes. If it is a current MyBB plugin, I think it'd be a good and useful addition!

If I'm not mistaken, I believe the default time In MyBB to merge posts from the same user Is 60 minutes. If It's disabled, double-posts will follow.

On the grounds that the feature Is already defaulted, I don't see why It cannot be adjusted.
EDIT: Info added.

Yeah this could be a good thing. I'm very often on my phone on Sinister.ly so this might defintly be a good additional option.

Strangely enough if you look at my last thread in suggestions, the posts were 2 minutes apart at most and it didn't automatically merge them. I'm going to assume it may have to do with me being on my phone, I'm not too sure

I believe it automatically merges them, but it does seem to take a bit for mobile.

If I'm correct with the default settings, the time can be set/adjusted via the ACP. In other words (for example), It may be set at 1 minute, hence all posts within that time-frame generated by the same user will be merged. Anything outside that window, will be double-posted.

This Is something that @Oni needs to clarify.

It's set to a low value. I often do the same as OP, but I usually just type out my post in the reply, copy it and then edit the original post to paste it in.

Posts posted within 60 minutes by the same author right after each other, will be merged. Tapatalk might circumvent this.

Just as I thought, thanks for confirming It.

Is there a way to Implement It so that Tapatalk Is part of the equation?

I don't know what that is, I just type the website link on my cell phone
