OK, here is the code I came up with, it is mostly based on the postings.php code, with some mods to make it suitable for more than two threads.
PHP Code:
I just do not know what toss_cookies does! Rgds |
Tell me if the attached file fixes the bug, it should. If it does I'll release 1.2.1. By the way, the code you posted doesn't handle polls in two or more threads elegantly (which is why I chose to throw an error in this event), it doesn't update the parentid for all the merged threads, and other things for more than two threads. If you just merge two, it should work, but otherwise there will be a problem.
By the way, toss_cookies() is the first of two methods to remove the inline moderation cookies after an action. |

Yes, this file works fine. May I humbly suggest two improvements before you release next version? First, I would like to see a note attached at the merged thread saying "This thread was created by merging other threads, by ...., on ...., at ..... . I'll add that myself if you don't, but I think it is a worthwhile addition. Second, you do not have to be so restrictive with the title of the new thread. What I would suggest is, to show the mod the title of the first thread you are merging, and allow him to change it, if he so wants. If he doesn't, then you can use the original, first thread title, as the title for the new merged thread. Finally, since merging two threads can result in a new thread, whose placement needs to be changed (moved to a different forum), why don't you add the forum selection in the template form, and if the user selects a different forum, from the one in which the initial threads were, then move the new, merged thread to the new forum. In that way, the mod does not have to do a merge and then do a move. Just a couple of thoughts. One more thing I just found out, although I am not sure if you can do something about it. I have installed another hack, which shows me which members have seen a thread. It looks as if after the merging, that information is lost, since in the merged thread, it only shows me, as having seen it. I think it should show all members who have seen all merged threads. A pain? Yeah, I guess you are right. I'll see if I can do something about this. By the way, this is one of the most useful hacks I've seen, thank you Sir. Rgds |
Glad that finally fixed :).
I do plan to add logging to all of the inline actions; I do it for a few right now, but I want to add it in for all as well as cleaning up the entire system. Also in 1.2.1 there will be a small change to the inline_merge_thread template that will set the default title. Adding a move thread in the merge screen could be a possibility. I'll see about adding that in either 1.2.1 or the next version. As far as that hack, wherever the hack is storing read information, the table probably needs to be updated to change all the old threadid's to the new ones. |

I also added the remove thread functionality, to show up in the menu only for admins. Admitedly it's a risk, but it's quite useful for cleaning up the forums sometimes. Rgds ---------- John |
I don't understand, but the inline moderation tools work horridly at my site.
They often deny users with permission the ability to use them. The users are in the registered user group, but they have moderator abilities. In IE, they cause a "script error, debug" message which pops up on each page where they are. I am currently using vB3.0.1. Any fix I can do for this? |

Thanks for that first fix... but I have some good news and some bad news.
It now displays the drop down menu for my, however, there are no check boxes in the forum display and posts. It just displays a black cell in the forum display... Any ideas? Thanks again for your time and energy! Sincerely, Andrew Tatum |
