The ability to move posts to another topic is a basic fundamental of a good forum and a must if one wishes to re-configure forums.
WP-foro is excellent in many ways but sadly it does lack some very basic features.
I'm not knocking the team as I'm sure these features will arrive eventually, it's just a waiting game.
At the moment you can do that using these steps:
1. Find the target Topic ID ( X )
2. Find the Post ID ( Y ) of the post you'd like to move.
3. Install a SQl executor plugin, for example SQL Executioner
4. Navigate to Dashboard > Tools > SQL Executioner and run this SQL (change the X and Y values with Topic and Post IDs):
UPDATE $wpforo_posts SET topicid = X WHERE postid = Y
5. Navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page and click on [Delete all caches] button.
Any news to move posts to another Topic?
Kind regards, Karim.
Greetings, I've just setup a forum and mistakenly created a topic in the wrong area of a subforum. I can see how to move it but only the main subforum shows in the Move drop-down, no subforums other than the top-level one. Can this be done or do I need to delete and repost?
Never mind! Looks like it was just a cache issue. Cleared and the subforums showed up.
Hi, are there any updates for this issue? I have the latest version of WPforo (1.4.7) installed, the 'move post' functionality doesn't seem to be present.
Thanks
David
