Allowing Duplicate Posts

Hi everyone πŸ‘‹

I’m currently working on a FluentCommunity setup and trying to allow duplicate posts (i.e., posts with the same title or content). Right now, the system seems to automatically block content duplicates, and I’d like to override this behavior for a specific use case.

Does anyone know how to disable duplicate post detection or validation?

Any pointers, documentation links, or code examples would be really appreciated πŸ™

Thanks in advance!

In looking at the code, I don't see any available hooks to alter this behavior. There is a function named checkForDuplicatePost but I don't see a way to alter its output without the Ninjas making a change to the code.

Thomas OatesΒ thank you, Shahjahan Jewel would you kindly help us in this matter?

Currently, we don't have any hooks. But we will add a filter to disable that.

Shahjahan JewelΒ that is such great news. Thank you for taking the time to put my mid at rest.

Update: Filter hooks have been provided in v2.4.0. Check the link below for detailed use cases.
