The repeating summary line in posts

[davenn]

Hi @Greg Bernhardt

just curious. Why does the summary line repeat in posts

here's a randomly chosen post … eg

Summary: Are the tabs on the faceplates for motherboards useful?

Summary: Are the tabs on the faceplates for motherboards useful?

Typical motherboards come with "plates" that fit over the connectors that are exposed on the outside of the computer case. …………………………………...……...…….

Is there actually a bug with the forum software, or is it something so many posters are doing that they don't need to ?

Just seems pointless to have the summary text repeated, I have seen a few examples where it has appeared 3 times at the top of the OPcheers

Bug when a post is moved it is added twice

One of them is in the "Summary" field, the other is in the message body, probably copied there automatically because of the move. A mentor can edit the message body to remove the latter one, as an extra step after moving the post. I just tried it on a post that I moved this morning.
