Greta mod and I've been looking for something like this for a while.

You may change the task code (query) in order to limit it to certain forum sections. I believe I never will add an option for selecting forum ID's since to my opinion it does not make much sense to import only images for a few sections.

I don't want to grab every image that is posted to my forum, just the ones worthy of keeping. What I want to do is

1.) Create some archive forums for storing threads that are worthy of retention

2.) My archives are structured under one Category called Archives. Under that there are 7 or 8 other Sub-categories for historical eras. Under each sub-category there are 3 sub-forums.

3.) only Admins will be allowed to post in the Archives

4.) When Admin move a thread from normal posting forums to the 'Archive' forums all external images are then 'grabbed' and moved to localhost store (either in database or file system). This would mean the mod would have to treat a moved thread as a new post.

In my opinion this would make the perfect archiving solution and would mean I wasn't saving every piece of crud my users posted to the forums, just the stuff that needs saving. Yes, there's a manual element to it but then archiving is very much a manual process. So the ability to exclude all forums and set specific forums would be essential in this process.
