Copy Topics

[Laza]

Can you please update this mod for SMF 2.0 RC4 

[jkdove]

Any chance of an update for RC-4?  This is one of the most useful mods in the history of mods.   Will definitely donate if I know this is still a live mod.

Yes, any chance this could be updated to RC4 please.  It's exactly what I need (I think).  I want to copy topics from one category in my forum to another so that the topic resides in two places.  Unless there is some sort of alias topic mod that would just place a link in one category linking to the real thread topic.

Updated for SMF 2.0 RC4 and SMF 2.0 RC5

A question to you though.

It seems that the copied topic breaks image attachments.  They don't show up but for the missing image icon in the browser (I.E. the red X).  Is there a way of fixing this so that the images appear in both copies?

[vbgamer45]

I don't know I did not develop the mod originally would need to look at the code.

[City Builder]

Ok, don't bother.  I thought it might only alias a topic from one category into another but I see that it physically makes a copy of it, thus having two topics identical until people start to post in them, which would just make everything really confusing.

Still, it will be useful for when I want to just copy our sites rules thread into all the other categories, so not wasted.

Thanks,

If u add rename topic option while copying then it will be great and also there wouldn't be much to concern abt seo.

If you're copying a topic, you're implicitly duplicating content - that alone hurts SEO.

Not if you are copying to a hidden board... right? 

[Arantor]

Not if it's to a hidden board, naturally. But how often does that happen in practice?

You're awesome, thank you

Just an FYI though, I'm getting what appears to be a minor error in the log:

8: Undefined variable: Copy selected to
Apply Filter: Only show the errors from this file
File: /Themes/default/MessageIndex.template.php (main sub template - eval?)
Line: 332

There's a small typo in the package.

Locate RC2\installrc4.xml within the package and change

Code Select Expand

$$txt['quick_mod_copy']
to

Code Select Expand

$txt['quick_mod_copy']

Or edit MessageIndex.template.php, locate the above string then edit out the superfluous "$" sign.

Did anyone fix the attachments not coming over to the copied topic? (v2.0.1)

[vbgamer45]

No updates were made not aware of that problem.

Thanks for this Mod.
Runs nice on 2.0.2

"Copy Topic" button should appear at the bottom of the page of each topic (between "Move Topic" and "Remove Topic" on my forum).
