[RELEASE] 'Save Copy' Move Hack

Ok, it's the really simple, crappy version - sue me!

Not tested too much (only twice), but seemed to work relatively well.

postings.php, find:

$DB_site->query("UPDATE thread SET forumid=$forumid WHERE threadid=$threadid");

ABOVE it add:

  if ($savecopy) {
  	$threadinfo=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT title,lastpost,forumid,open,replycount,postusername,lastposter,dateline,views,iconid,notes,visible,subjectindex,threadindex,userindex FROM thread WHERE threadid=$threadid");
  	$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO thread (threadid,title,lastpost,forumid,open,replycount,postusername,lastposter,dateline,views,iconid,notes,visible,subjectindex,threadindex,userindex) VALUES (NULL,'".addslashes("$threadinfo[title]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[lastpost]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[forumid]")."',0,'".addslashes("$threadinfo[replycount]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[postusername]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[lastposter]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[dateline]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[views]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[iconid]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[notes]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[visible]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[subjectindex]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[threadindex]")."','".addslashes("$threadinfo[userindex]")."')");
  	$newid=$DB_site->insert_id();
  	$posts=$DB_site->query("SELECT postid,threadid,username,userid,title,dateline,pagetext,allowsmilie,email,signature,ipaddress,iconid,visible FROM post WHERE threadid=$threadid");
  	while ($post=$DB_site->fetch_array($posts)) {
  		$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO post (postid,threadid,username,userid,title,dateline,pagetext,allowsmilie,email,signature,ipaddress,iconid,visible) VALUES (NULL,'$newid','".addslashes("$post[username]")."','".addslashes("$post[userid]")."','".addslashes("$post[title]")."','".addslashes("$post[dateline]")."','".addslashes("$post[pagetext]")."','".addslashes("$post[allowsmilie]")."','".addslashes("$post[email]")."','".addslashes("$post[signature]")."','".addslashes("$post[ipaddress]")."','".addslashes("$post[iconid]")."','".addslashes("$post[visible]")."')");
  	}
  }

find:

$DB_site->query("UPDATE forum SET replycount=$numberposts,threadcount=threadcount-1,lastpost=$lastpost,lastposter='".addslashes($lastposter)."' WHERE forumid=$curforumid");

REPLACE with:

  if (!$savecopy) {
  	$DB_site->query("UPDATE forum SET replycount=$numberposts,threadcount=threadcount-1,lastpost=$lastpost,lastposter='".addslashes($lastposter)."' WHERE forumid=$curforumid");
  }

find:

eval("echo standardredirect(\$bbtitle,\"".gettemplate("redirect_movethread")."\",\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid\");");

REPLACE with:

  if ($savecopy) {
  	eval("echo standardredirect(\$bbtitle,\"".gettemplate("redirect_movethread")."\",\"showthread.php?threadid=$newid\");");
  } else {
  	eval("echo standardredirect(\$bbtitle,\"".gettemplate("redirect_movethread")."\",\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid\");");
  }

Close that.

Now, in your move template, add this somewhere:

<TD><INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="savecopy" value="yes">&nbsp;&nbsp; <normalfont>Do you want to save a copy of this message (but closed) in its original forum?</normalfont></td>

----
That's it, you should be done.
Maybe not efficient, but it works

BTW, sorry there's no note on the page - I don't feel like adding a whole column to the database for that

It does work ... But it would be very nice if we could combine it with the PM hack so that it will automaticly send a PM to the starter of the thread informing him/her about this:
"Your thread sent on X date has been moved from X forum to X forum"

Thanks

I am trying to get this to work on VB 1.16

I can't find one of the lines...I am wondering if it changed.

the line is:

eval("echo standardredirect(\$bbtitle,\"".gettemplate("redirect_movethread")."\",\"showthread.php?threadid=$threadid\");");

The closet thing I could find in postings.php is this:

 eval("echo standardredirect(\$bbtitle,\"".gettemplate("redirect_movethread")."\",\"showthread.php?threadid=".intval($threadid)."\");");

would that be the code I replace? And if it is, It hasn't worked for me. What happens is when I click on any of the admin options in showthread, I get an error that says: "Document contained no data"
