Hi,

I know it was suggested by itesla in June last year, but I cannot find out how to move a post to a different topic, is this possible now,  I could copy it but I become the author and I cannot post it on behalf of a user or change the poster.

Thanks

Clive

That's not available yet. You can do that in database.

  1. Find the target TopicID in _wpforo_topic table ,
  2. Get the ForumID of this topic as well.
  3. Find the post you'd like to move in _wpforo_posts table
  4. Change TopicID and ForumID column values

Hi Thanks but it still leaves some bits showing wrong imformation,

At the top level it shows the last post info as admin and no topic name, and at the topic level it shows last post by admin 47 years ago, but at the post it is OK.

If you are not sure what I mean the website is wateratairports.com and the country Finland should show what I am talking about.

Regards

Clive
