I’ll look into it and I’ll let you know.

I’m traveling right now so it’ll be around the end of next week.

+1 to OP. Just had a user on my site point out this issue this morning and was able to confirm and reproduce it. It’s a narrow window, but an accidental double/triple click can indeed make it through. I thought maybe it was just an issue client side, but I can confirm that it increments on the server too. I’d think this is fixable with something simple like disabling the button as soon as it’s clicked while the request processes. If you’re up on GitHub or something, I’d even be happy to look at it.

For anyone interested, here’s a fix (I did a pull request, so hopefully you’ll see this or some version of it in a future patch of the plugin): https://github.com/thequicksilver/thumbs-rating/commit/58c5dbd6c4c573fdc2dbe0e6efaa04be122554c8

I suspect there’s a better way to pull this off, but it’s a one-line fix, so anyone should be able to patch it manually with no effort.

Woohoo! Version 1.7 is out with @thequicksilver’s change. Thank you!

Hey guys, sorry for the late heads-up. I had this problem solved some time ago and forgot to inform the author about it.

TheQuicksilver’s solution works just fine indeed (thanks for that!). I believe I’ve found a more efficient solution tho, that doesn’t require any additional jQuery and actually even reduces some lines of code.

Just set localStorage.setItem(itemName, true) before the Ajax request, this will avoid that it gets initiated multiple times before calling the Ajax request.

Also, var itemName = “thumbsrating” + ID is not needed, as it is already created at the very beginning of the file.

Here is the modified general.js: https://pastebin.com/jWn5F5Ut

Please note that the actual solution was suggested by @ocean90 (thank you!).

Cheers

Argh! You’re right medariox it’s a cleaner solution.

I’ll change it and push the update since it’s going to be faster than modifying the DOM.

Thanks again.
