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.

Features

Hey, I'm using your mod and it works great. However, when I try to do it on posts that have been imported from a different database.

The error is:

Fatal error: Existing data passed is not an array
Called set_existing in [path]/inlinemod.php(378) : eval()'d code on line 296
Called eval in [path]/inlinemod.php on line 378
in [path]/includes/class_dm.php on line 235

Any idea why this might be?

Thanks.

Did you run a recounter on threads/postings? Seems your Database is not up to date, espacially lastpost.
