Hello, is it possible to merge two or more channels into one?

Thanks!!

no it is not for vb5

It is possible, login as admin, select the checkbox next to the inline mod menu, that will select all the threads, then from that menu, select move threads. From the popup, select the category you want them in, checkbox if you want redirects or no and click move.

a little time consuming if you have 2000 threads in each forum.

I'm very surprised that there is not a mass move function in VB5. There is so much I like in VB5, But so much is missing.

Calendar for event forums like Drag Racing or Car shows
No Mass Move
No easy way to create a custom Style
I'm sure I'll find more Immiss as I only converted over Weekend

Mass move is possible by command line using curl if you are comfortable using the command line and mysql.

That's a little above my paygrade/comfort level

I really can't understand why this (I'd assume simple to add) feature would have been disconinued.
