Duplicate Post Or Not?

[PeterBJ]

According to this there was a duplicate post, which I reported:

But according to this, maybe not?:

Could this be a software glitch?

I didn't see a duplicate when I looked at the report. If you see it again, hover over both of the links to see if the have different URLs or the same URL.

The duplicate posts are still visible on the "New" tab:

"Mousing over" the two posts show two different URLs in the lower left corner of the browser window:

I guess this is the information you wanted?

Odd! They have unique urls, but go to the same place!

I'm guessing it's just a one-off bug, but we'll keep an eye on it.

Here is a new case of false duplicate posts:

The links are different, but lead to the same post, and they were not unread when I made the screen shots:

After having replied to the thread and refreshed the start page I see this, only one of the posts appear to be answered, but both links lead to the same thread, with my reply shown:

I hope I have posted enough info to solve the problem.

Thanks for all the great info, details, and pics! I definitely see what you see, but unfortunately I can't figure out what's causing it to happen with some threads and not others... it's really strange.

I wonder if it ever shows up duplicates in the recent posts page: http://www.printerknowledge.com/find-new/posts?recent=1

P.T. I see only one entry in the Recent Posts page, and it is the correct one, showing that I participated in that thread.
