Developer Last Online: Jan 2023 Show Printable Version Email this Page

Version: 3.5.0 Beta 3 Rating:
Released: 06-15-2005 Last Update: 03-17-2006 Installs: 46
Is in Beta Stage  
No support by the author.

This is a port of my 3.0.X Hack which can be found here

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
Upload the files from the ZIP to the appropriate directories, a new entry in AdminCP Nav will appear automatically.

Warning!
This is fast-written Alpha-Code!
Although I did a few tests and it seems to work just fine 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.

History
1.00 Initial Version for vBulletin 3.5.0 Beta 1
1.01 Updated for Beta 3: The Link now appears in Navgroup Forums & Moderators instead of creating another Navgroup.

Please only click Install if you actually have installed/are using this Hack, and click Uninstall when you don't use it any longer!

That's because this was written for Beta 3 and not the final
Edit the cpnav XML and change product="vBulletin" to product="vbulletin"

You could use it to clone (with different titles) one forum/category X times.
If that makes sense is up to you to decide

Nope, doesn't ring a bell with me.

Could you give me an example of what kind of forum you would copy? I'm curiuous now.

Ok, I can understand that. That would save a lot of time setting up categories. This might come in handy then.

Worked great for me... althought it ran up my CPU big time. But such is life as it saved me hours.

Just for a reference on how I used this... I am creating a college sports forum and needed a separate forum for each Division I school. Well, there are 300+ of them so you can do the math.

Is this working on 3.5.1 vB?

Thanks!
