    Dear members,

    I have a query....

    If i have something which related to PHP, Web Design, Development, SEO at a time can i post same thread under all forums with same title and content.

    I went through FAQ's but looks like duplicate threads are not allowed, but across multiple forums, will they be treated as duplicate ?

    If its a serious breach please let me know as soon as possible.

    The basic reason I am looking to do it because some people sticks to specific topic/forum and i want to reach maximum people. (not for marketing but for knowledge sharing)

    thanks members for your time.

    That's the problem...alot of these forums overlap so it's tough to choose just one. If you can split ur question into different ones, then post in each relevant forum.

    Just post it in one of those and if the mods feel like it belongs to somewhere else, they'll move it

    Why?
    If the thread as lots of different topics, the OP's may commit an honest mistake, i doubt he'll get an infraction.

    That's why, if you're not sure if it's in da right board, you report your own post and mention that. Then they'll look at it and if it's in da wrong board, they'll move it with out an infraction!!!

    And mention you made da thread!!

    Duplicate thread means that there are 2 same threads. No matter where the other one is located, it's still a duplicate thread. And we all know that it's not allowed.
