Title: Double Click Submit Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Double Click Submit * [Milo99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/milo99/) * (@milo99) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/) * I am on a Mac and have tried this in 3 Browsers Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. Everything seems to work fine but the first click on the submit button does nothing. After you click it a second time it will submit the post. Anyone else having this problem? You don’t have to double click it really fast or anything you just have to click it 2 times before it will submit. * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-user-frontend/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-user-frontend/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * [CJwrite](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cjwrite/) * (@cjwrite) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408525) * I just noticed the same problem. It’s not a huge problem, but it’s annoying. Did you find a solution? * I might go pokin’ around in the code a little… * [Turismo in](https://wordpress.org/support/users/turismo-in/) * (@turismo-in) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408531) * Same problem. * [WPChina](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpresschina/) * (@wordpresschina) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408533) * Same problem here too. * [professor99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/professor99/) * (@professor99) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408539) * Don’t have this problem myself but Im using WordPress 3.4.2. Is this just a WordPress 3.5.1 problem? Is it a problem with everybody that’s using WordPress 3.5.1? * [rajun](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rajun/) * (@rajun) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408540) * Same problem here. * [WPChina](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpresschina/) * (@wordpresschina) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408541) * I am on 3.5.1 yes. I did not test it on lower versions. maybe there is a small conflict caused by a form someplace. I will continue to investigate. * [professor99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/professor99/) * (@professor99) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408542) * rajun are you using WordPress 3.5.1? * [rajun](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rajun/) * (@rajun) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408547) * yes, i m using the latest wp version. * [professor99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/professor99/) * (@professor99) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408548) * Had a look on WordPress 3.5.1 with my [development](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/frontend-updates-2rrr-fork) version which definitely doesn’t have this problem. My try again later with the official release as I need to test the upgrade from that to the new development release * [professor99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/professor99/) * (@professor99) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408549) * Ok I can definitely confirm it is a problem with 3.5.1 with the official Frontend version 1.1. Its due to a bug in the checkSubmit function in wpuf.js. I rewrote this in the development version some time back due to similar bugs and this seems to solve the problem. Simply update wpuf.js with the updated version of checkSubmit below * ``` checkSubmit: function () { var form = $(this); //Save tinymce iframe to textarea if (typeof(tinyMCE) != "undefined") { tinyMCE.triggerSave(); } $('#wpuf-info-msg').html(' '); $('*',this).each(function() { if( $(this).hasClass('wpuf-invalid') ) { $(this).removeClass('wpuf-invalid'); } }); var hasError = false; $(this).find('.requiredField').each(function() { var el = $(this); if(jQuery.trim(el.val()) == '') { //Highlights closest visible container. //Still slight bug in tinyMCE editor when submitted when display tab is "HTML" //In this case the "Visible" tab won't be highlighted but this is very insignificant. el.closest(':visible').addClass('wpuf-invalid'); hasError = true; } else if(el.hasClass('email')) { var emailReg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; if(!emailReg.test($.trim(el.val()))) { el.closest(':visible').addClass('wpuf-invalid'); hasError = true; } } else if(el.hasClass('cat')) { if( el.val() == '-1' ) { el.closest(':visible').addClass('wpuf-invalid'); hasError = true; } } }); if( ! hasError ) { $(this).find('input[type=submit]').attr({ 'value': wpuf.postingMsg, 'disabled': true }); return true; } $('#wpuf-info-msg').html('
Required field(s) empty.
'); $('#wpuf-info-msg').fadeTo(0,1); return false; }, ``` Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) The topic ‘Double Click Submit’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/wp-user-frontend/assets/icon-256x256.gif?rev=3578622) * [User Frontend: AI Powered Frontend Posting, User Directory, Profile, Membership & User Registration](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-user-frontend/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-user-frontend/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-user-frontend/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-user-frontend/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-user-frontend/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-user-frontend/reviews/) * 10 replies * 6 participants * Last reply from: [professor99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/professor99/) * Last activity: [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/double-click-submit/#post-3408549) * Status: not resolved
