 * FYI: When i quick edit a post, multiple post type drop-downs appear. i think 
   the functionality is not adversely affected, but is a bug that could be fixed.
   Thanks!

 * I was getting this problem too… I think it’s because the `quickedit` function
   is run for every custom column on the screen, when it only needs to run for the`
   post_type` column.
 * I fixed it locally (WP 3.4) by making the function on line 141 into this, modeled
   on the function above:
 *     ```
       public function quickedit( $column_name, $post_type ) {
       		switch( $column_name ) {
       			case 'post_type' :
       	?>
       		<fieldset class="inline-edit-col-right">
       			<div class="inline-edit-col">
       				<label class="alignleft">
       					<span class="title"><?php _e( 'Post Type' ); ?></span>
       					<?php wp_nonce_field( 'post-type-selector', 'pts-nonce-select' ); ?>
       					<?php $this->select_box(); ?>
       				</label>
       			</div>
       		</fieldset>
       <?php
       			break;
       		}
       	}
       ```
   
 * I haven’t tested this on other systems, though!

 * I also had this problem, and the fix posted by Elizabeth works, thanks!
 * Only problem is that any update to the plugin will probably break it, but hopefully
   the developer will fix it going forward 🙂
