I lean on the side of not being able to have a double flaming weapon, but others say there's nothing against it. As for adding a second ability with an infusion, that's what they're there for. Our ninja just recently had, thanks to my infusions (and lots of hard work beforehand) a +5 cold iron holy fey-bane short sword of shock. Nice against the evil fey we were fighting. Errata can be found on the main D&D homepage under Game Rules.

I would think this would go against the same spell/power affecting it, but each one is different so I'm not sure. Thanks for the response and any additional info :)

I end up sharing them around the party, spending them on armor enhancements as well, etc. Keep in mind, it never says that it has to even be a magical weapon in the first place. You could take the quarterstaff you just cut from a tree and make it a quarterstaff of clouting, even without a +1 bonus on it.
