Hi gang. I am tinkering around with writing a script to bulk create a bunch of social groups. Happy to contribute it once it is finished, but I do have a quick question.

As far as I can tell, at least for my needs, for each group, we need entries in the page, node, and routenew tables. Is it possible to use the "Forum" datamanager to achieve this? Or am I better off just writing direct INSERTS? Curious as to any thoughts out there.

Cheers.

After some digging around and initial testing, the API calls work pretty well

What social network do you want to create groups for?

The OP was referring to the Groups in vB5.

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