Merge user account (dupes) · **Released**: 12-20-2002

I am not offering support for this hack

This is a quick little script to be installed only into your admin dir (and best removed when its not needed)

most of the info came from this thread thanks to nightrider72 .

install and use instructions are ...

install into your admin dir,
to use it...
make sure your logged in....
you will need the user id of both accounts, the primary account is the one you wish to keep.

the secondary id number is the account that you wish to make go away....

submit, it will check the db for the user names and display both names and id, if yes, click, if its wrong back out of there.

when you click yes, it updates the posts, threads, pm's subscribed forums etc... it also updates the post count for both users... (ie the primary user inherets all of the posts, and the secondary user should have nothing)

there is very little error checking in this script, and use at your own risk.

It is working fine here - even if it is a little brutal, but saves the need to shell in and access the db that way (or use phpmyadmin)

AGAIN, USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK

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