After editing a post here
http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... 5#p6057205
lots of duplicates of the original post appeared. Every time I've tried to edit a duplicate to remove the content other copies appeared.

Perhaps you hit the "Reply with quote" button right next to the edit button? It's been known to happen for most of us on some occasion I think...MaxSynths wrote:After editing a post here

Are you certain you didn't hit "quote" rather than "edit" by mistake? I've done this several times and caught it, a couple I made duplicate posts before noticing.
One of the problems with the standard phpBB3 layout, it might happen less often if the quote button lived somewhere else although I suspect it isn't really that much of an issue. I haven't run in to this problem lately as I've been far more careful which button I hit.
So, if it isn't that, are you running any custom browser extensions that may modify the javascript or similar? Which browser? Can you reproduce it or is it just a one-time thing?

Actually I'd think you shouldn't really need a "reply with quote" on your own posts, so the same logic that exposes the edit button should hide the quote button.
Just that I'd be willing to bet it isn't quite so simple to actually do that in the code.
