Same here but the addon work perfectly. Thanks!

Thank you @AndyB sir for this useful add-on. It worked.

A couple of things to improve this add-on:

• It seems that it does not update user post count, the effected users post count should be updated at the same time.
• When we type user name it does not support XenForo's auto complete function. That would make sure we are typing correct spelling of a user name.

Where can I set the usergroup permissions?

Thanks for this great addon

Is there a possibility to change the usergroup permissions for changing the author?

Can I just check, who can actually make the change, is it only admin?

At this time only the admin can change the author of a post.

It would be great if you could create a phrase for the text "Change Date" and "Change Author", so that I can translate it without TMS

Will you make an update so it update the post count ? that would be awesome

 

[Valter]

One minor issue here. In overlay it always shows #1 for post number.

I've fixed it temporarily in your Post.php by replacing:

$viewParams = array(
       'postId' => $postId,
     );

with:

$post = $this->getModelFromCache('XenForo_Model_Post')->getPostById($postId);
$viewParams = array('post' => $post);

It's how you implemented this in Change Date add-on. I've just copied missing lines.

Thanks for this nice product.

Does this change 1 post by that author name or is there an option to change all posts by that author?
