Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Change Threads/Posts Owner/Date for vB3.7

Change Posts Owner

Created by Marius Czyz aka Phalynx.

Tested on vBulletin 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8

What does this modification do?
It can change the owner and date of multiple threads and post. For this, it adds another option to your mod actions on forumdisplay, showthread and search results. After selecting some threads or posts, you can choose the new owner by name or by UserID. "By name" works with the AJAX namesuggestion, we all know it from writing a PM. After changing the name, it rebuilds thread/forum counters and post counter of old and new user. Attachments will also be assigned to new user.

Installtime: <1 minutes
Difficulty: very easy (1 product)

Demo is not available, due to missing permissions on my board.

Please click Mark as INSTALLED, otherwise I will not support you.

For upgrade, just to overwrite product?

Another question...I have vBulletin v3.7.4 PL1, could I install this MOD version for vB v3.8, or I must first upgrade vBulletin to v3.8 and then uninstall this MOD version before install this MOD for vB 3.8?

[Phalynx]

You can install this on 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8 without complications.

So this version (this topic) and version for vB 3.8.0 https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=200952 is same?

What will be if I try to overwrite same version with same vesion?
Sorry, but I have vBulletin just for a month, and this vBulletin upgrade will be my first upgrade, and I am so confused with MODs versions (still do not know what and which one to upgrade when upgrade my vBulletin)

[Phalynx]

Yes, they are the same except for the productid.

By importing a mod that already exists you will be asked if existing one should be overwritten.
