XF 1.5 Is there a way to merge two nodes together

[Jim Kingsnorth]

I have imported 2 databases into my XF forum. Each database had similar forums (nodes). I need to merge the forums into one forum (node) I am hoping this is possible.

Example I have two nodes called In The News. I want all the posts in one node called In The News. The reason I have two is because of importing 2 databases.

I'm not sure this is possible. But you could just select all threads from one and move to the other, then delete the first.

EDIT: Not so useful if there are 1000s of threads of course. You can increase threads per page to 100 max, but that means you can only select 100 at a time

EDIT #2 This might help:

You can use the batch thread tools in the control panel to move all of the threads between forums. (You would then delete the empty one.)

Batch Update Threads in the ACP is an easy way to move all threads from one forum to another.

Edit: Ninja'd

ACP search for "Batch Update Threads".

Found it! Works great!

Yeah I have 20,000 threads to assign to nodes, imagine doing that manually. Thanks for the help

Yes, well I'm glad you now got some better advice than I could give!
