   the latest version of the plugin that’s supposed to check titles etc
 * Anybody else having this problem?

 * I’ve not touched it for over half an hour and its posted the same 20 articles
   3 times, once every 10 minutes lol.
 * I’ll find another solution, the plugins gone.

 * ok….what may be happening is that that filter is changing the permalink each 
   time….I would need to see an example of the feed to see what could be causing
   this (the plugin checks the permalink and the title to see if it’s already been
   added to the database and only brings in the feed item if there is no permalink
   and title). There is a workaround if the feeder is changing the permalink (which
   they should never do)..but again, I need to see it to see what’s going on.

   versions of the feeds?

 * you know, i think ive got the problem.
 * you say the plugin checks the database for permalinks, titles etc?
 * ive installed wordpress on a sub folder, is that causing the problem?

 * yes, you can read how the plugin does that here:
 * [http://www.allenweiss.com/faqs/im-getting-double-posts-with-the-feed-to-post/](http://www.allenweiss.com/faqs/im-getting-double-posts-with-the-feed-to-post/)
 * If you have wordpress in a subfolder, that shouldn’t cause a problem (even if
   you’re on a multiuser site) since each sub site has it’s own database.
 * I’ll try putting those feeds into my public web site and then show you a movie
   on what’s happening..I’ll post that in a bit.

 * well, I just put one feed into the plugin and it brought it the three items and
   when i tried to import them again, it wouldn’t (so no duplications)…you can see
   that here.

 * What this tells me is that there is something going on with your server (so it’s
   choking when there is a database call to check for a duplicate) and/or there 
   is something weird due to the fivefilters redirect. I haven’t had any other users
   of the plugin report using fivefilters – typically people just import directly
   the RSS feed.

 * I have the same issue. Latest version in wordpress.org works perfectly. The beta
   version has problem.
 * My website: [http://r.rsnippets.com/](http://r.rsnippets.com/)
    One of RSS feeds:
   [http://analyticsandvisualization.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/R](http://analyticsandvisualization.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default/-/R)
 * It seems the plugin does not check the link of posts. The link of duplicate posts
   has number added to the link of the original post.
