That must be frustrating - especially if he'll use it at night. Bridget wouldn't use one pad even when confined. Always pooped on the carpet. I posted on here and some one suggested the two pad thing. I even do as you and pick up the poop right away but she will still never pee on the pad in the corner (her poop pad - clean or dirty), or poop on her pee pad (the one next to it), even to this day. I've been thinking about getting one long washable waterproof crib mattress to see what happens - but I don't want to jinx myself.
I always felt bad about confining Bridget. During the day she is confined to her bedroom with 2 pads (my daughters old bedroom) - and for her - which is probably just her quirkiness - she will not do all her business on just one pad. If there is only one down - she will pee on the pad and poop on the floor. (which I guess is better than the opposite). When she is out of her room playing she will stop and run back to her room to do her thing.
At 7.5 months old I have no problem giving her run of the house (knock on wood), but do confine her for the day for her own safety. I only have one set of pads down in the entire house (not a huge house 8 rooms)...in her room. It has been like this for about about a month already. (Now I'll probably find a huge pile somewhere). Hope you find an answer - It's tough when they do things sometimes and not others - it's hard to know WHAT to do.
He'll get it - even my son was harder to potty train than my daughter....maybe it's a boy thing!
