Hi guys,

The one thing I miss in SP is (more advanced) moderation tools. SP has all the basics, but things like splitting and merging posts/topics can come in very handy …

I have members who, f.i., will start what should be a new topic in an open topic. That’s OK if you notice before there’s a reply, but once there are replies you can only move the posts to a new topic each, but there’s no way to combine several posts into one new topic. We now just move the first ‘wrong’ post to a new topic, then copy/paste all the replies before deleting them from the original (‘wrong’) topic they were posted in.

Guess this is more then a ‘bit of coding’ to implement embarassed but it would make life sooo much easier on SP forums …

Thanks for considering wink

We are very aware that these tools are a must and I assure you they have a high priority for a 5.1 feature development list.

That’s good news!

And there’s no hurry; good to know you guys agree and it’s ‘in the making’. Meanwhile I’ll just copy/paste laugh

 I was kinda wondering about that, since this is a busy forum ..

In all honesty: I really miss those tools, but whenever I get frustrated I consider the alternative: back to a phpBB-or-something forum. That thought makes the patience come right back wink
