This seems to of stopped working for me.

If I move the article out of my dedicated vbcms forum it reverts back to the link and the article disappears out of the post?

I think the code is specific to the CMS comments forum - it isn't designed to work if the thread is moved elsewhere.

Now that is really annoying lol.

It's fine I'll just delete it, post it as thread then promote it. Sigh, bleeding CMS.

You could always amend the code:

I imagine if you took the last bit out of that it might work....

Thank you mark works perfectly :)

Now If only I'd known that ages ago lol.

anyone know how to get this to work with 4.1.11 now that the comments are made to forums other than the cms comments forum?

You can remove this from the if statement:
AND $this->thread['forumid'] == $this->registry->options['vbcmsforumid']

Unfortunately, there isn't any flag in the thread table to say the thread is an articles comment thread. I suppose you may be able to look at the thread title and see if it has the word"Article:" at the beginning and use that in the if statement so the query isn't run for every thread.

You know what's funny? Promoting from a thread to article only worked once for me. It worked and kept the original thread and prefixed it with Article:. After that 1 time, whenever I try to promote another thread, it would refuse to keep the original thread. I'm stumped.

This isn't really a suppor thread for the new CMS options. You do have three new settings on the page that you need to select before you promote the article if you want it to keep the original thread, so don't forget to set those correctly.

If you have more problems, you really should post over on vbulletin.com.

...;)...now is perfect ;) ;) ;) ....thnx ;)
