    Hi Kalman,

    Have you seen the workaround mentioned in a few of the other threads about this duplication issue? If not, switch to flat view instead of threaded view.

    AFAIK, there isn't a timeline on a fix for this, but the issue has been acknowledged by the forums team.

    If you're going to switch, first save HTML of your signature into another file. Change the Setting and then re-set your signature again in HTML as otherwise you will lose it and it will become a plain text. Happens to me as I had to switch to flat view. It makes reading threads a bit tougher as I don't know who the person replies to.

    Actually, I just went to that thread and even in the flat view I do indeed see Erland's post as duplicate. May be it is a real duplicate. I want forum's team to take a look and delete extra post if it's a real duplicate.

    My guess is that this is actually a real duplicate, as the two posts have different message IDs:

    message id="d25dc858-462b-4a2b-94d8-653369294bdb" (first post)

    message id="455849f0-abb5-4a60-b038-095fc44bcf5f" (second post)
