 In version 2.0.x DISTINCT was automatically added to all queries that
 weren't in the admin panel (line 593 of classes.php). However, 2.1 took
 out this section and doesn't automatically us it or GROUP BY except when
 viewing single categories (lines 811 (808) and 845 (841) of query.php).

 This is an easy fix just add a default filter or force it inside the
 function to either use GROUP BY `ID` or DISTINCT by default.
