Perfect - exactly as I had hoped it would work. THANKS!!!

Can you explain the difference between 'Uninstallation' and 'Full uninstallation' please?

Uninstallation disables the products functionallity; that is any threads promoted after performing the uninstallation steps will have a comments thread made in the comments forum for them. Existing threads that have been promoted however would cease to work (eg comments wouldn't get updated onto the article). Full uninstallation enables you to totally remove the product without breaking the articles you promoted while having the mod enabled.

Ok, I must be doing something wrong. I can't get it to work.

I installed it, as described. I went into one of my forums and into a thread with multiple replies. I promoted the first post to an article. Clicked save. But no comments are seen in the CMS. Is there anything I have to select before saving?

Thoughts?

deomo or screen?

Things to check:
1. Post a comment to the thread you promoted: does it go into the original thread?
- If not double + triple check you did everything right; (esp the uploading of the custom hooks.xml file; it may not have overwritten the original)
2. Clear the CMS cache and see if posts appear.

I don't see how I can provide a screenshot for this; as it would look no different from the basic vbulletin 4 setup. A demo is also difficult, as it uses what is essentially admin functionallity

Carnage-, Are this bug fixed on ver 4.0.1 yet? or only about hooks fixed.

hooks are deffinatly fixed; deleting the thread before deleting the article should be fixed (along with a whole host of other bugs caused by doing things like deleting your cms comments forum) but i've not had chance to verify this yet. The issue with tags being removed if you delete an article i've not had chance to verify either way - it may not even have been looked at. (i'll go check the bug report now)

is the "deleting thread" problem fixed ?

until the hook is moved, deleting an article will remove the tags from the original thread; the thread itself however will not be deleted.
