The site still has some issues that their trying to correct. When posting ,when you done typing it, copy and save the text, wait 5 seconds then hit the refresh button in the address bar, The post will be there ,just ignore any message you get.I think that's whats causing the double posting.
You copy and save in case it rejects your post. saves you from typing it all over again.

That's what I've been doing... just in case!! Pictures uploaded have been so small you need a microscope, but now I found you can copy and past a picture into the post body. Don't think we could before.

With the new software, there's no need to copy and paste due to the auto save feature.

If you have a problem with it not posting what you already wrote out, you can always go back to the topic anytime you want even if it's days later and it should be there. Just above the "write something..." you should find highlighted in yellow (Previously entered content was automatically saved. Restore or Discard.) Just click on restore and everything you typed should reappear.

Also, Most of the time when you click post reply, the posts do go through even though you get an error code or it seems to takes a long time to post. Just click on refresh or open a new window, you should then see your name in that topic on the forum home page and you can move on to the next topic with confidences that the last post went through. Hang in there everyone, it's going to get better.:)
