Nexia's Move Orphans to Another Forum · **Released**: 05-10-2009

Always wanted to "secure" your administration process when you edited/deleted forums?... Wanted to speedup the move of thousands of threads before deleting a forum?

This engine is very simply to understand, and is missing from vBulletin. I coded the original version inside Invision Board, and when i came to vBulletin i thought it was already integrated, but even 5 years after, it's still missing.

When you delete a forum, with the default vBulletin, here is the screen you have:

Attachment 99012

This is kind of unsafe, you know nothing about what you're about to delete, and you have no idea what to do with it. You are forced to move all these threads before thinking to delete the forum, and you are not always sure you're deleting the right forum... So here is the solution:

Attachment 99011

Pretty different, isn't it?

The dropdown is the list of your forums, the exact same dropdown you have when you Edit your forum and navigate thru it to choose a forum.

Once you submit this form, your forum will be deleted, BUT before that, all the threads are moved where you choose to, or not...

it is default to IPB since 1.01 (ok, i know because i'm the one who coded it.. lol)

it's an old concept i had since the begining of forums, and i was sure vB had it since day one... but hey, it's not me who will change things... i hope more of these features are integrated to vB 4.0

Look nice.
Tagged for now, and will be instaled on weekend when I will have more free time...I will be install a lot of your MODs.

Just an off topic question...
This MOD give me a hope for something like vBtrash (old and not working on newer versions of vBulletin).

Earlier I have phpBB, and there is similiar MOD that give you options to move posts to trash topic which is inside trash subforum. So you can soft delete, phisically delete or "delete/move" to trash.

This MOD have option in ACP to move all forum to trash, could you do it something for posts and topics too (not in ACP, on front side)?

Thanks, and sorry for my bad language.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
