Another filter? Such as?

I wish there was some way I could test what this mod does and view it's impact, restricting it's cron execution to just a specific "Test Forum" ID, so it didn't act on any other data in the databse. In that way, we could make sure we didn't mess up 4 years of posts without a test. Is that possible to have a test forum ID mode that one can turn ON and OFF?

Thanks again ...

If photos.imageevent.com/ is in the Ignore settings,

is not touched at all. If it isn't, it is touched this way:

Assuming you have already 1233 JPEG images in your .../2010/11/ folder and the post comes from today.

For testing, I suggest to use it on a test board first

There is no such filter as forum sections, threads and so on, but if you really must filter, then you may change the query in file iei_cron.php on line 229 from:

$SQL = "SELECT postid, dateline, pagetext
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post
WHERE iei_parsed=0
AND pagetext LIKE '%[/IMG]%'
ORDER BY postid";

to:

$SQL = "SELECT postid, dateline, pagetext
FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "post
WHERE iei_parsed=0
AND threadid=XXX
AND pagetext LIKE '%[/IMG]%'
ORDER BY postid";

where XXX is your thread id.

At this point, please enable also the cronjob logging (modify task), in order to see in your logs which posts have been touched.

Last not least, don't forget to undo the changes after testing
