Merging

Post by Manshu »

em... I have a sorta really strong hold on this feature cuz I have to merge a whole lot of forums into my forum, and I dont know any way of do it, each time I just delete all the posts and take out the members, I dont wanna have to do this over and over, cuz those posts are valuable too, so is it possible to make a script intergrated inside phpBB 2.2 that allows you to take data from one forum and add it to your current one? If so, PLEASE add it, I would, and others I KNOW would appreciate it very very much :):):)

As per my update @ http://www.phpbb.com" target="_blank, merge topics is already present. There are no plans for a built-in merge database feature (which I assume is what you mean ... phpBB 2.0.x can already move topics/posts from one forum to another en masse).

No, that is "tick all of the boxes and click move".

oh, I meant that if there was a script besides Barts that allowed to merge 2 peeps forums, or if there was someone who knew how to do it

I think he means.. take posts from Poster A's and place them into Poster B's thread.

Seemed to me like he meant taking all the post from one board (e.g http://www.boarda.com" target="_blank) and adding them all to another board (www.boardb.com). In essence combining two seperate installs of phpBB
Images in sigs! please.

I wouldn't have it so you could merge forums unless they were on the same server for obvious reasons.
