It looks like there’s a new feature that warns you if you’re going to post in a topic that has already been solved. However, it appears to do this _every_ time you post in that topic, not just the first time. Is that intentional? It seems a bit excessive to warn the user every single time they try to post in the same solved topic.

I suspect it’s intentional. If that’s not appropriate for your community then you can customize the text under admin /customize /text

The warning about posting too frequently in a topic only shows up once per topic though. I don’t see why this new warning should be even more prominent.

In any case, I’ll wait to see what they say. I don’t think customizing the text would be helpful though. Do you know if there’s a way to fully disable it?

I think it’s `disable solved education message` (Disable education message for solved topics)
