    Hi Jeff, I often receive duplicate posts because it takes time to upload images and submit the form, so users click the submit button multiple times… How can this be avoided? I tried different approaches in javascript to prevent a second click on the submit button but it doesn’t work… Thanks

    Hey @grafityx, the plugin does provide protection against subsequent clicks of the submit button. After the first click it is disabled until the form is submitted successfully. If that isn’t working, it could be due to some JavaScript error on the page.
