Mass forum addition

[JVCode]

Hi everyone,

I own a games website, and would like to start adding a forum for every game out for the specific console. I've tried doing this before, but after adding several hundred games, the forum manager page in admincp would hang/crash before displaying the forums list, which was a pain!! Is there a mod out there which allows me to collaps specific categories from being displayed (so they don't load when the admincp forum manager is loaded) until I expand them.

Also, is there a way I can add multiple forums at once? adding one forum at a time becomes tedious after the first hundred or so...

Thanks!

In all honesty I would highly recommend NOT doing this. The main reason is that you're spreading very little content throughout many, many forums. It will make your forum look completely dead. Have a discussion board for each console, and if you must, have sub-forums for each genre. This is a much better solution than creating a forum for each game.

Additionally, if you want more "game-specific" stuff, look into adding prefixes. This will allow users to create a thread with a specific game in front of it.

Thanks for your suggestion, but after more consideration, I'm still on the idea of adding a forum for each game...

1st post still applies, if anyone can point me in the right direction, or help with modding, please reply.

Kind Regards,

me too. Can someone script this in XML or provide a MySQL way of doing this?

1.000+ forums seems to lead to problems with vbulletin.
