Change Threads/Posts Owner/Date for vB3.8

[Phalynx]

Change Posts Owner

Created by Marius Czyz aka Phalynx.

Tested on vBulletin 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8

What does this modification do?
It can change the owner and date of multiple threads and post. For this, it adds another option to your mod actions on forumdisplay, showthread and search results. After selecting some threads or posts, you can choose the new owner by name or by UserID. "By name" works with the AJAX namesuggestion, we all know it from writing a PM. After changing the name, it rebuilds thread/forum counters and post counter of old and new user. Attachments will also be assigned to new user.

Installtime: <1 minutes
Difficulty: very easy (1 product)

Demo is not available, due to missing permissions on my board.

Please click Mark as INSTALLED, otherwise I will not support you.

Features
- Can change owner and date of selected posts and threads (including database attachments - it will not move file attachments)
- Can change owner to unregistered user and back
- Can accept user id and username
- Username input is driven by AJAX
- Post count of involved users will be increased/decreased
- Thread and forum counters of involved threads and forums will be rebuild
- Supports inline moderation
- Makes use of $template_hooks, hooks and simple group permissions
- Every change will leave a notice in moderation log

Features for future releases
- Incrementally change time, f.e. first posts is 12:01:01, second one will get 12:01:02h, third one 12:01:03h....
- Moving file based attachments to the new user

How to install?- Simply import product

thx for the update

[Roi Danton]

Thx for this mod! :up:

Feature request:
Change only date and not owner of a post/thread. I.e. separate Owner and Date change permissions and add in the ACP a new permission field with the name "Which usergroup should be able to change the date?".

[Phalynx]

Will think about this, thanks.

[JKatz]

You rock! Thank you! You're saving me a big problem with this one RIGHT now!

[TheArve]

Thanks for this,, really appreciate ur time taken,

Is this supposed to be for Admins only? I installed it and the Mods can see it in the Mod pulldown menu, but after hitting Go, it tells them they do not have sufficient priveledges. So far only Admins can use it.

[scabbed]

nice, i just want to know before installing this if it can change the name of the social group discussion and post too ?

thanks in advance

[Phalynx]

It can only change threads/posts of normal forums. Changing SG' discussion is a nice addition, will think about it.

Just a note: I'm on holidays from today up tu thursday (29 January). No support will be given in this time.

[scabbed]

yes it would be a nice idea if you manage to do it.

for example, i really want to move some threads to the social groups and i can't do it... with your mod, i can copy paste the thread to a new discussion and after change my name of each post to the real poster name

long way but sure way ^^

'have nice holidays

[obmob]

OH... works great, thanks! :D

[David Gillaspey]

Today, I needed to change the owner of a post from "Guest" to the name of a new member, and your mod did the job.

Thanks!

[n.sinha.p]

Was looking for this. Thanks. Clicked installed! :)

[digicom]

Thankyou Installed :up:

[Classico]

Excelent!!!

Voted for MOTM!!

Thks

[Gustafsson]

Very nice, but the clock seems to be off. It would be nice if it could match the current logged in user's time settings.

For example, if I want to change a post with time 08:44 PM, then I get 14:44:23 in the edit box. This is off with 4 hours.

[Phalynx]

Seems a problem on international boards by chaning post date.

[Jedric]

[Myago]

Thanks, installed ;)

[Sarthek]

Installed thx.

[wtb]

Love the mod as it's just what I need but it's formatting the date wrong. I wanted it to be 2/12/09 but it's displaying as 12/2/09. How can I fix this? All of my other threads/posts (those untouched by this extension) show the proper date format. Any help would be appreciated.

RESOLVED: I was entering the typical M/D/Y format into the boxes but realize now that the extension's boxes are in D/M/Y format. I just have to remember to do the date a little differently. I did have to go in and fix the "futuristic" listings via PhpMyAdmin but the issue is resolved and it's working as intended.

Thanks, very useful ;)

Uninstalled.

Not working in my vb 3.8.1

Mostly the reason of outdated templates.

[SEW810]

Man!!!!, I asked for help in Change Threads/Posts Owner/Date for vB3.7 thread and nobody helped me :'(, I used to have this hack installed (Marked Installed of course) and nobody

Provide me a temporary admin account so I can take a look.

[macc]

i try to change date in one thread but changes did not accepted ... - after that tried to change in one post-reply (time only) and get 6 hours difference ... put 12 00 00 and get 18. 00 (that was in post-reply ) but in thread could not change anything - (in that forum have 5 threads - no post-replies)

[Phalynx]

Try to input hours as minutes and minutes as hours. Seems your time settings are different than the script expects them.

[macc]

thanks for reply and help ... but still time diference (6 hours ) - how to fix that?

*********** EDITED **************
Thanx a lot Phalynx, it works perfect with vb 3.8.1
It's pretty cool that we can sett the user group that will use the hack.
Please check out your Moderation pop up menu. There's the option to change date,hour and author of any thread or post.

[Sebastiano]

Very good hack, thank you Phalynx. ;)
However, I think I found a little bug: if you change the author of a post in a forum where post counts are deactivated, the post count of the user you assign the message to will increase however.

[nat.n]

Wow!!! It's really great!!!:up:
I'm a newbie at vBulletin but very familiar with phpBB (which included the "change poster" feature)... so, thank you for having done this for us!!! :)

[Phalynx]

Very good hack, thank you Phalynx. ;)
However, I think I found a little bug: if you change the author of a post in a forum where post counts are deactivated, the post count of the user you assign the message to will increase however.

It uses the vBulletin API to recount the postcount, so I don't see a bug in it.

[Sebastiano]

Am I wrong or the 12h/24h recognition works only when changing post time and not when changing thread time? I mean: if a thread was posted at 23:46:18, when I want to change its time it shows 11:46:18.
At least this is what happens to me (my date format is H:i:s).

Sorry for replying only now.
So this is something like a "design issue"? Because, also if this is not a bug, I think you agree with me in saying that it's not much correct that a post is counted in post counts when it shouldn't.

[smirkley]

I may be missing something, but how can I block the option from showing up in the moderator options pull down if that usergroup doesnt have permissions to use it?

Right now it shows up, but of course permission is denied when a non permissed staff usergroup tries to use it. I just want to hide it if they dont have permission.

Yes, this depends on the time settings. I will _probably_ fix this for the next version.

[dominiqueC]

Hi !

Thanks for your great hack.

Unfortunately, when i try to change a date to an whole topic, all posts are inverted (the last in first, the first in last) or in the disorder.

An idea about my problem ? :/

[M Shaker]

Thanks

[Sebastiano]

Yes, this depends on the time settings. I will _probably_ fix this for the next version.

Fixed in next version.
Thanks. ;)

I founded another little problem: if you have the "Assign IP Address" option set to 'Yes', when you change the author of a post/thread to a guest, and than you change it back to a member, no IP will be assigned to the post and it will still have no IP as when it belonged to a guest. It is possible to fix this too? :)

[spillage]

Just what the Doctor ordered.

Thank you for your contribution to the vB world... great work... look for a donation.

As a small note; I went to change the Timestamp only on a post to put it at the top of a thread, but it didn't take... I had to change/re-enter the Owner to the same as existing to get it to take.

Hi,

I want to change YEARS date of my froms, for example: all post from 2006 2007 convert them in 2008, but only the year. What do you suggest guys?

thanks

[Merriweather]

Silly question, but if I give my moderators access to it, can they only use it in their forums that they moderate, or can they do it in all forums?

[Phalynx]

If you define a group than only this group can do it, in every forum. If you leave that setting empty, it uses forum mod permissions.

[MaximG]

Thanx a lot! Great mod! Особенно за русский продукт!

Looking forward and hoping this gets updated before everyone starts coding for vB4.0

When I change the post owner, the attachments no longer work. The thumbnails show inline of the full-sized images, but they will not load upon clicking. If I change the post owner back to the original owner, the links work again for full-sized images (attachments).

How can I determine what user group can use this? I created custom user groups that I want to use this but it looks like only the default user groups can use it!

Extend the setting "Use group permission" to the usergroups that can use this.

Thank you so much for all of your help! Gave this five stars. Excellent and essential mod!

[smirkley]

I know you are on vacation (I am jealous), so no pressure for this fix.

Just hoping you can touch on it when you get back. It is a pain in the butt re-enabling everytime I want to use this, nothing big, just dont want unavailable options seen to those who dont have permissions lol.

(Unless I missed that it was updated already)

Thanks again.

Hello, Phalynx.

I just upgraded a vB from 3.7.2 to 3.8.4 using ImpEx, instead actually doing an update. I was not careful enough to create the admin account in the new vB with a diff. e-mail from the admin in the old vB, so this user was NOT migrated. The posts and threads are there, with "RenatoMN" as a unregistered user.

May you explain how can I find all posts/threads from this unregistered user and change the owner to my new user without need to browse all the forums? The posts aren't returned when I search posts by author username.

Regards,
Renato

[Phalynx]

In this case I would suggest to click first "Mark as Installed" :)

[RenatoMN]

Actually, it was not installed before... installed now, so marked as.

Regards.

You will need to run SQL Queries to accomplish this to all postings:
update post set userid=1 where username="User"
update thread set postuserid=1 where postusername="User"

Replace userid/postuserid with the UserID of the new owner, also replace "User" with the Username of the old user.

[morrow]

This mod looks great. I was wondering though.... I had a mod a while back which actually let me post a new thread or reply to a thread as a different user. I need to satisify my alter ego's. Is there any way to work that feature into your mod?

[Phalynx]

No, and not on my todo list.

[RenatoMN]

You will need to run SQL Queries to accomplish this to all postings:

update thread set postuserid=1 where postusername="User"

Very thanks, Phalynx :)

[tlwwolfseye]

Are there any permission settings on this Mod for who can use it or not ?

[ClanAH]

Hey, Great mod .. But what if a username was 666? Wouldn't that be a conflict with the username and userID? Or does a username take precedence over userID?

Also, when you edit the date it is setup as Day - Month - Year, This is confusing because in the actual thread the date is setup as Month - Day - Year.

Ive just attempted to install this mod but i am getting this error when i import it and thus need to 'go back'

You can enter the usergroup that can use this via options.

In fact, this could be a problem. Why not testing this out? :)

Another interesting setting would be a "Time Offset": My server is the USA, my seat in Switzerland. This means: I always have to subtract 9 hours when changing the posting time (e.g. to add an "intro post" to an existing thread).

But anyway: Thanks again for this nice hack!

I just tried this and I'm really impressed! Thank you so much for this. I must say that I agree with Roi Danton though. I would love to have it where you could just change the date. Even if you don't fulfill this request the mod is still great. When I tried it out, I put my name in the new user box although I was the original poster, and it still changed the date. I have no problem having to do it this way. Thanks again!

will it be compatible with v4.0 of vbulletin ? it is a very important hack for me !!

Hi... I highly doubt this will be converted to vB4 in next few months. The fact that I even don't have any forum of me upgraded to vB4 makes it also more difficult.

It is difficult for ordinary users to get involved with SQL. So we await the development of this modification

best regards...and all the best

Hi Marius, do you thin it's possible to get this hack onto 4.x? :)

[Chicago_VLNU_4s]

installed..

[way2xtreme]

Would love to see this in 4.0 as well. Thanks in adv :)

[BRotondi]

I'm trying now to migrate this one, SocialForums for vB3.8 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=2007732#post2007732) and Change Threads' Prefix Inline (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=200732) to vB4. But... whow ... almost one week over and I only saw, how much still to learn and understand... If someone wants to join me: Thanks!

Problem at the moment is not this code here but "YAHOO Dom", "how to put an addon into an xml" and similar... all the basics after the basics of templates, phrases and plugins. ...

I too would like this for 4. We imported the phpbb forum last night and discovered today a user was deleted and his posts turned into guest posts. Would like to attach them to his new account.

[Alisa Lindsay]

Add me to the list of waiting for a 4.0 version as I'm pending upgrade on both my boards and we find this mod invaluable.

Hope to see it soon.

Regards,

Alisa

[pedroenf]

Will this be upgraded to VB4?

[vilhiem]

Would also like to see this for vB4

[Samish]

When I try to change owners I end up with a page loading with realms and realms of coding. Just endless.

Hi,

I installed this mod a year ago and it works for threads but now i want to change the owner of one post in a thread and surprisingly the option to change the user does not show up in the drop down menu.

Any hints for me!?

Regards

Nils

PS.: vB 3.8.4

[Phalynx]

Did you changed manually the templates? Installed a hack that is also hooking into this drop down?
I'm hooking into an existing template hook.

I'm hooking into an existing template hook.
I made only a few slide changes via TMS, but nothing in this drop down. But i installed the Moderator Checkpoint System that adds two points in this drop down. After i disabled that everything is allright and the option to change the user does now show up.

Thank you :up: !

Regards Nils

[Phalynx]

It seems the Moderator Checkpoints System is overwriting existing hooks.

muchas Gracias por la trtaduccion al español- Salu2

The same bug with attachments, will this be fixed?

[Phalynx]

What do you mean with "same" ?

[n1k]

I have file based attachments on my forum and when I change the post owner the attachments (thumbs too) no longer work.

[Phalynx]

This is a known issue, no fix so far.

[n1k]

My question still stands: will this ever be fixed?

[Phalynx]

I don't think this will happen in the next weeks.

[Robert9]

I tried to find out more about the attachment-problems, but i fail.
I have compared the dataset from post and attachment before and after changing the owner, but there is no other change than username/userid.

Any other idea what it could be?

[Phalynx]

Attachments will not work if you are using filebased attachments.

[adwade]

Thx for this mod! :up:

Feature request:
Change only date and not owner of a post/thread. I.e. separate Owner and Date change permissions and add in the ACP a new permission field with the name "Which usergroup should be able to change the date?".

Will think about this, thanks.

Any serious consideration for this update? It would be a nice feature to have!

Marked as INSTALLED! Thanxx for an easy to install & use MOD.

[Phalynx]

I don't think this will be done, sorry.

[besedka]

thanks

[elrafei]

works great, thanks!

[TAIFUN_T]

Good product, but it has a very important bug.
Create a thread, attach a few images, then change the owner of the thread.
Refresh the page. Thumbnails will disappear from the message.
Tested, provided that the attachmentes are stored in a file system

[Phalynx]

Yes, this is a known issue, known as "Moving file based attachments to the new user"

I don't think this will be done, as my time is very limited.

Hi everyone,

For those who wanted to use this mod with filesystem based attachments, import this .xml file. This .xml file has a small change made by me to fix that issue. Hope it helps someone and doesn't violate anything.

[onealien]

how can you see if you have a filesystem based attachments?

thanks...

Hi, I'm using this on a heavily modified theme and I can't get it to show up anywhere. Can anyone tell me what I need to add to what template (hook, for example) for it to show?

Thanks in advance. :)

[gr8whtd0pe]

Everytime I try to use this I get:
"The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 2 characters."

Any ideas why?

[Been Told]

Are there any plans to update this mod for vB4?

Update to vB 5???

[jimsflies]

Getting ready to upgrade my forum to vb4, I have this product installed and I'm wondering will the owner changes I've made over the years carry over to vb4? Some of the posts I changed owners have attachments, will those also stay they way I put them or would they become orphaned if the posts revert to its original owner?

And I'm yet to see one.... I advise against it, really.

[mario1973]

Thank you very much . I was going to take to be picking in phpmyadmin but I found this plugin .

[TTayfun]
