submit article action ends up in submitting two articles

Hi!

First of all: thanks for this component. Briljant!

But I have a little problem and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
I've created a form with a name field (text-box), a title field (text-box) and a text-area for entering the article content. I want to submit the content as a Joomla article, so I've used the Submit Article action and placed it first in the On Submit area.

When I enter data in the form and submit this data, two articles will be created. One holding the submitted data, one empty. And they both show in the article blog.

I've tried to add an extra field, so all fields (author, title, introtext, fulltext) get a value, but I still end up with two articles...

Could you help me out here, so I can get you that beer!?

Thanks!

Hi nllen,

There are no clues here. Please take a Form Backup using the icon in the Forms Manager and post it here (as a zipped file) or PM or email it to me and I'll take a closer look.
