Hi,
Hope it's ok to bring this up, I've been posting the blog advent comps I've come across as a advent thread. Most of the blog advent threads I've made are being duped by posting each blog advent as a stand alone comp. I've tested this out by posting the brick castle advent comps as stand alone comps & none of them have been duped. I've also seen another member post a blogs advent comps as stand alone comps & they have not been duped either.Yet most blog advent threads are being duped.
I think what's happening is people are searching for the blog comps as stand alone comps when they don't see that they post them, even though the blog advent thread is showing up on the search.
There may be more blog advent comps starting anytime & especially on Dec 1st & I was wonder to save people time rounding the dupes up & asking for merges & the ones picked up by Glad (thank you to all of you) would it just be easier to post any new advent comps as stand alone comps that don't already have a Advent thread?
Everyone will still see them all as individual comps so no one misses out & it would not take any more time to post each alone or would this confuse people more?It's TicketyBoo To Be TickTwo!0 -
Thanks TickTwo for bringing this up. I started up four blog advent threads, one of which has ended as it was a 12 day Advent starting on 1st Nov and finishing on the 12 Nov, but the other three are still running throughout the month:

I am happy to continue adding the new Advent comps to these threads or post them seperately:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0 -
They should really go into advent thread as not everyone will spot them on main, without the link.
No idea on how to stop the duping.

I am happy to continue adding to the blog Advents I have started then. I think most peeps interested in the Advents bookmark or go through the Advents thread daily anyway. There are lots of thanks on my blog advent posts so obviously lots of subscribers/checkers:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0 -
OK thanks toniq,
I will keep rounding them up when I see them happen no problem just thought I'd ask thanksIt's TicketyBoo To Be TickTwo!0 -
I'm going to spend some time sorting the advent thread and getting end dates on everything now, last chance to shout out for any amendments or suggestions.
I'm asking hubby to look over to it to see if there's anything he can spot with his analytical eye to straighten up.
Category wise I think we have them, there are spare posts where I can adjust as we go along.

Done it, removed ended ones, and tidied it up, everything has end date and all links work.
Hope it is ok
