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)

Nice one, can you please add this option on Search=>Newpost and Forumdisplay options? it will be nice to change owner of multiple threads at once.

Thanks

This is a Admin only feature right? Sorry I didn't see this answered.

[Phalynx]

Right.

[ArchAngelz]

Would it be possible for this to work at the point of thread/post creation like this other mod (which unfortunately is buggy as it doesn't update post counts like yours and sends thread subscription emails in the name of the original poster).
