I have been building automated blogs (autoblogs) for several years. One issue that is faced from time to time is that of duplicated posts. I did not have a real solution. Some autopost plugins can look for duplicated content but most do not. As a result I tended to accept that duplicated posts would happen and lived with it.

Anyway, today I found a plugin that watches for duplicated post titles and will not post a new post if it has the same title as a previous post.

Dead simple but should do the trick.

The plugin is written by a French speaking bloke and his blog/download page is in French but if you need help Google Translate can pick up the slack. ;)

The plugin is called Duplicate Posts Eraser and is available to download from here: BlackMelvyn's Blog.

Have a good day!

    Duplicate Posts Eraser seems to work well, unlike a couple of others I've tried and do exactly what it says it will. The fact that it seems to intercept duplicate titles before they are posted is a much better approach than deleting after the fact. It is just what I was looking for. I'm reserving judgement until I let it run a while. I've tried so many plugins that just don't do the job (of one type or another). But first impressions are very good.
