Update New repost algorithm for subs.

This is how it works:

if a post was previously posted less than 14 days ago, user will get an error with a link to the most recent repost.

On the other hand, if a post was previously posted more than 14 days ago, the post will be submitted like a regular one, but a comment that contains the following message and link to the original post will be automatically posted by @Pauline.

"This post has already been submitted in this sub more than 2 weeks ago. Click HERE to see the original comments."

This is a good thing.

Is it active now or will it start working in 2 weeks?

Is there any limit on how far back this will go? Back to the first post made on Poal?

Good stuff man. Your efforts are appreciated.

What if a post is slightly different from a previous one? Does the algorithm do 'fuzzy' matching?

That’s what sticky text posts and flairs are for.

You can update their content without reposting.
