Administrative and Maintenance Tools - Multiple Promotion to Articles

An easy to use addon for promoting multiple threads to articles without losing time, using inlinemod. It promotes to an article the first post from each selected thread to the selected section of the CMS.

It's in Beta, so please give feedback.

Features

• Promotes multiple threads to articles at once

• Section selection for the publication of the Articles

• Uses forum and CMS permissions

• It publishes it immediately with the same date as the original post.

• It doesn't allow you to promote already promoted threads and soft deleted ones.

Instructions:

Having the required permissions, on the forum display, select the threads which you want to promote by clicking on the checkbox on the right and open the inlinemod menu and select "Promote to Articles". You will be presented with a screen to select to which section you want to publish the articles in. Select the desired section and click "Promote threads".

looks good, tagged for future use. I will (when i get around to it) ensure that this is compatible with my use original thread for comments mod.

Thank you Empire10, this what I needed.

Now I tried this but it must be " . TABLE_PREFIX . " before cms_nodeinfo for user table prefix.

Well would you add an option enable to select a Category as well as Section page. If that is possible it would be muti selection enable too.

Regards.

PS: Is that possible to limit preview text length while promote?
