Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Change Threads/Posts Owner/Date for vB4

Change Posts Owner

Created by Marius Czyz aka Phalynx. Converted to vBulletin 4 by Speedy1505.

Tested on vBulletin 4.0.3 and 4.0.4

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)

Make sure you uninstall it or disable it after you use it to fix threads, this mod messes up the time with a +3hrs difference. we used it to fix dates on a few threads of a board that was converted from phpbb3. Good tool, besides the time bug it just works great with the latest vb, just uninstall it after you use it.

It works,
But it has problem with date and time,
It will work but after you are done renaming the threads and done working with it uninstall it.

It works fine for me in vB 4.2. It had the same problem in the other previous vB versions as well for me. The timing would be ahead by one hour. So when you change the time, you will need to type in 09:45:41 in order for it to show 8:45 AM. I hope that makes sense.

Seems to work fine for me in v4.1.12, but I'm getting a 9 hour lag time showing. I'm in US, West Coast. Any coding solutions to this?
