Hi All,

I am running bbPress “Brubeck” version 0.9.0.4. However, it seems like bbpress does not have a built-in function to move posts from one forum to another forum. This seems like such a basic necessity for a forum platform to have. Does anyone know of a plugin that can accomplish this and will work with bbpress version 0.9.0.4?

Thannk you,

SupraTT

There should be a pulldown on the bottom of the page that let’s you move topics? There’s a nice description of what it looks like here:

Does the pulldown show up for you when you’re logged in as keymaster/admin/moderator?

Thank you John. I just didnt see it…too used to phpBB.

This was one of the things i had to get used to with BBpress that i think is very weird.

Why are moderator functions on the front end, but not in the admin section?

On one of my forums, i try and keep a very tight ship, making sure things are in the right section, and having the ability to click a check box and selecting “move to—>” would speed up moderation by a considerable factor.

I know what you mean kevin… that drove me crazy too!

Try this plugin by ck – it lets you click checkboxes and select batch actions, like marking a bunch of messages all at once as spammed or deleted:

Nice one!

I missed that plugin, and ofc “tip o’ the hat” to _ck_ again.
