Change Author 3.0

[Joe Link]

I had a dream last night - in my dream, I wanted to change the author of a lot of threads in one go... I just used the inline moderation option to 'change author' and that changed the author of the first post in each thread

... then I woke up


I would like this feature, if you'd consider it

If this had the option to bulk change threads via in-line that would be a huge help

When changing the thread starter the thread search index is not updated.

I'm using this one for the moment to do that.

Tried to search of this error, but when I try to install the add-on I get the following error message:

Callback Andy_ChangeAuthor_Listener:ost is invalid (Invalid Class).

Anyone got an idea what that is?

With the full error message of curse - but so, no not.

I ran into some sort of road-block here. I installed the plug-in with no issues, allowed the various user-groups to "change author" - but the text just doesn't appear next to a post. Any idea what I might be overlooking? Running on 1.5.2x

I just realized, that it will be enough to switch to the "default theme" to make the text visible. I tried to manually edit it, into the current, modified theme, which I was able to thanks to the code shared earlier, but it didn't work.

But switching to default theme, changing the author worked just fine. thanks for the plugin!
