Forum Duplication Tool
Version: 0.3 Alpha, by Andreas Andreas is offline
Developer Last Online: Jan 2023 Show Printable Version Email this Page

Version: 3.0.6 Rating:
Released: 01-25-2005 Last Update: 06-24-2005 Installs: 6
Code Changes Is in Beta Stage  
No support by the author.

Description
This addon allows you to easily copy/clone/duplicate a forum (and all of its sub-forums).
Content (eg. Threads/Posts) will not be affected.

Usage instructions
Place the file in your Admin Control Panel Directory and point your browser to it, the form should be self-explanatory.

Warning!
This is fast-written Alpha-Code!
Although I did a few tests and it seems to work just fine (not only on my system) I won't give any warranties - use it AS-IS at your own risk.
I strongly advice you NOT to use this in a production environment.

I wrote this on 3.0.6, but should work with all 3.0.x-Versions.

History
0.2 Alpha Fixed a few Bugs, changed some Text, Forum Information now being rebuild automatically
0.3 Fixed wrong parameters for print_forum_chooser()

I think I know why - but why would I want to do this?

I think vB3 by default has a forum permission duplicator in Admin CP which I'm guessing is similar.

Yes, you can duplicate/copy forum permissions by default - but not forums itself.

By that time I guess nobody will post in the vB2 forums any longer, so you could just mass-move all posts out of there and rename the category

ok, that may be possible as well

but it's contraproductive to advertise your hack

contraproductive ?! pfft... Xenon wish to be the one to burn the most calories when creating similar forums... justify the salary... :laugh:

btw, i tested it... i really love the drag-drop tools... nothing to edit, no hack to implement... just great...

btw, why is it said :: Please Rebuild Forum Information! ?????

Rebuild would be better renamed as "Edit", or "Update"... because it's kinda hard to rebuild when there is no such feature..
