Adding posts to nominated thread

Could someone point out to me how to copy the content of the first post in a thread and send that as a post to a nominated thread. Can it be done using datamanager?

I have a .php working that sends the URL of a nominated thread into a new thread.
Coding Problem.

Looking around there's a comment in vB4 posts that references a vB3 article Create New Post that I could follow to add posts to a thread - but what I'm not sure of is how to obtain the text content of the source.

Could anyone provide a few pointers .....

Suppose you have the threadid of the thread whose first post content you want to grab, stored in $threadid. You can the query the database as follows:

PHP Code:


		
			
$fposts = $vbulletin->db->query_read("

    SELECT post.*

    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post AS post

    WHERE threadid = " . $threadid . "

    AND parentid = 0

");



$fpost = $db->fetch_array($fposts);



$postcontent = $fpost['pagetext'];

Now you have the content of the first post in the thread stored in $postcontent. :)
