Not getting unique post ids?

    Hello, After using this plugin we ran into an issue we have a chance that multiple people may submit the same post name.

    But when this happens the second form submit does not get created so we tried to go in and set up title based on a filter to prefix the post id

    But it seems like we get the same post id multiple times?
    I am also wondering if this is the reason multiple of the same title does not work as well out of the box? (Since WordPress has no issue with creating multiple posts with the same title manually)

    Thank you for any help

    sure, but the post slug will always be different as it forces the post to be unique. Posts can have the same title while still being unique.

    But when this happens the second form submit does not get created

    this should not be the case, unless you are mapping the post slug.

    no it should not matter. It is possible that you are re-loading a previously submitted post and as a result keep re-writing it over (see FAQ #20)

    Turns out it does create a new one as long as the form submission page is refreshed after the form has been submitted

    oh good! glad you got it working.

    When using Contact Form 7 with Ajax submission and not reloading the page before submitting a new entry, no new post is being created, as no new post id is being assigned to the new formsubmissions.

    This is a bug…
    We are seeing this issue as well and thus, 3 ajax form submissions in a row, will cause to only publish 1 post with latest form submission entries.
    How can the user know about this?

    Can this be fixed, please?
