TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

Help! All of a sudden, comments can’t be posted!

See here

Pressing submit acts as if you’ve pressed submit again. I’ve not changed a thing, it was working 2 hours ago!

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

seems ok
I just posted a testing comment.

Maybe it is your cookies. Did you try it using another browser?

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

Thanks dude. So it might be just me that can’t post…

Tried both Chrome and Safari.

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

Maybe someone else can post something from here to confirm that it is your setup…

Just a thought… you did not ban yourself by mistake did you?

Done.

Or are using a software like Little Snitch to block your computer “phoning home”?

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

Thanks Uli. It posted fine.

Yes I am, although I’ve been able to post on my own site since it’s launch (and did so recently).

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

Nope, or even Lion. Snow Leopard is my choice of OS!

Can you disable little snitch for a while? I’m not using it so I don’t know.

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

Update: it appears to be related to the name used.

“Ross Harvey” – fails with loop

Tried “Ross”, which worked for a while, now fails

Now using “Ross H”, and expecting it to fail soon.

Tested on multiple browsers too.

How on earth can I fix that!?

Any change you are trying to post a comment message you have posted previously? Textpattern blocks duplicate comments site-wide. Any comment that shares the same client IP, the author name and the message is considered as a duplicate and blocked without any visible feedback.

Re: TXP suddenly stuck on comment preview loop

There’s a chance they could be similar, as I’m usually thanking people for the comments.

I just tried using a previously problematic name, and worded a unique reply and it posted. Perhaps you have the answer. I’ll keep trying, making sure the replies are each different to see if it happens again.

Cheers!
