Forum Duplication Tool
 

This is a port of my 3.0.X Hack which can be found here

Description
This addon allows you to easily copy/clone/duplicate a forum (and all of its sub-forums).
Content (eg. Threads/Posts) will not be affected.

Usage instructions
Upload the files from the ZIP to the appropriate directories, a new entry in AdminCP Nav will appear automatically.

Warning!
This is fast-written Alpha-Code!
Although I did a few tests and it seems to work just fine I won't give any warranties - use it AS-IS at your own risk.
I strongly advice you NOT to use this in a production environment.

History
1.00 Initial Version for vBulletin 3.5.0 Beta 1
1.01 Updated for Beta 3: The Link now appears in Navgroup Forums & Moderators instead of creating another Navgroup.

Please only click Install if you actually have installed/are using this Hack, and click Uninstall when you don't use it any longer!

Does creating a new php file count as a code modification hack or a plugin hack? :confused:

Nice idea anyway :)

No Source Code Edits necessary => classifies as Plug-In, as you only have to upload the files :)

Cool - My run of "plugin only" mods will continue then :p

Satan

Well, this is my definition and not necessarily the official one ;)
Hmm ... gonna check this out.

A plugin would require the use of a hook. If no source modification are needed, and no hook is used. It is not a plugin in my personal view.

but your still basicy 'pluging' the hack in to vb has your making no edits so i feel its better classed has a plug in.

thats the view that was taken with my bb-messenger hack for vb3 it was let to be added here when vb3 was still in beta has it made no code or database errors it just 'plugged' in

Update for Beta 3
The link now appears in Navgroup Forums & Moderators, instead of creating another Navgroup.
To update: Delete cpnav_duplicator.xml and upload cpnav_duplicator_b3.xml
