RM 1.1 Adding discussion later

[dknife]

I am in the final stages of finishing my new website which has xenforo as the authentication user system and discussion forums. I'm also utilizing the Resource Manager as my new file repository, rating and update system.

For the migration I'm keeping the database very clean with no boards or users (apart from myself of course) so that the ID's will all be the same in the new forum and make it much easier.

My question is whether I can start populating the resource manager with files but not create any threads or specify any forums the threads go in and once the forum is mgrated can I then go back and edit those resources and add the discussion threads in the specific forum?

No, that's not possible.
The thread is created when the resource is created.

ok thanks, guess I'll be even more busy that night

You should be able to use this add-on to achieve that:

http://xenforo.com/community/resources/resource-manager-thread-reassign.1560/

So, create the resource without the thread and assign the thread later.

I think there's a conflict though if you try to assign a thread that contains a poll.

Thanks, I'll try it out.
