Disable multiple submissions? | WordPress.org

I’ve noticed that double clicking or spamming clicks on the submission button will post multiple versions of the same post to my site.

I had a look though the already posted support threads and couldn’t find anyone else talking about this issue.

Is there a simple way to disable the submissions button after the first click perhaps?

It’s not something built in to the plugin at this time, but there are wealth of jQuery snippets that are used to prevent second clicks. Here is just one possible search:

Have a look thru some of those hopefully will do the trick.

Seems like this should be a feature, whats the point in the captcha if anyone can spam you anyway?

I’ll have to look into it again.. I thought the issue was resolved in a previous update, but apparently more attention is needed. Thank you for your feedback, will do what I can.
