A user has reported the following issue with Group PM feature (I’m running the current software).

“when i post, the text box stays after the post has been sent and then i need to then abandon the post but it still posts it, its weird and could lead to double posts.”

I’ll take a look in the morning. Possibly something was missed with PMs.

I tried to reproduce this but can’t – do you have any steps I can follow to make it happen so I can debug it?

The user isn’t super helpful - but here is a little more information:

the issue is happening on his smartphone - an android-based phone using chrome browser.

and this:

“Says error 500 message then you need to abandon post even tho it has already been written but the post stays where it is”

Yes, I was able to repro this on meta and @eviltrout is looking into it.

A simple fix here:

[https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/13de577568e6059f8b1cbaf3076dc9c29ceb2c87](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/13de577568e6059f8b1cbaf3076dc9c29ceb2c87)

Not sure why this showed up recently, doesn’t seem to be related to my major post queue changes. Coincidence?
