[Plugin: Genki Youtube Comments] Duplicated comments : New YouTube bug?

  • Hi everyone,

    This plugin is having some hard time with the new YouTube layout. All my comments have been duplicated, I tried to do a manual update and now they are even tripled!

    I think a quick update should be necessary, here are my suggestions :

    1- Add a button to delete all comments added by the plugin (to clear everything, shouldn’t be hard since all comments start by [..YouTube..])
    2- Add a routine to avoid duplicated comments. After some research, here is something I found : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6802996/mysql-query-to-delete-duplicate-wordpress-comments

    If this upgrade is not rapidly put in place, I will have no other choice but to remove the plugin, which is making me sad because I really love that feature (most of my activities are based on YouTube).

    Thank you for considering this message!

    Sincerely,
    BBC

  • I would like to notify the creators of this plugin that I, too am having the same issue.

    It would appear each time it imports my comments it keeps duplicating them over, and over again.

    Sadly, I had to disable the plugin because it keeps spamming my website with comments!

    It’s hitting me, too. It’s randomly adding question marks here and there. Makes it easy to spot the duplicates!

    I had the same problem with duplicate comments – and I had no idea they were there. By the time I got to them I had 4 WP Comments pages to delete and even while I was doing that they re-populated.

    I have removed this plugin.
