Hi,

How do I move a post to a different topic?

Under the first post, moderators will see a "move" option.

But you can't move individual posts, you move the whole topic to a new topic.

Hi, thanks for prompt reply.

My situation is that a user posted a message to existing topic, but the message is completely irrelevant to the topic. So I would like to create a new topic and move the message (and possibly following answers) to that topic.

Is there a solution or proposal here?

I think this is something that's being worked on for future releases but you'll have to wait for the word from Robert as to whether it's going to be in the next release or not.

I know other users in this forum have requested it as a priority, so hopefully it will come soon.

Thanks, Sam. I do hope Robert has a piece of good news on that.

I'm sorry but this is not included in near upcoming versions.

There is an alternative way to move posts described here:
