How to Mass Copy Threads?

[FourTwenty]

I tried to select the posts i wanted to copy to another forum and tried using the drop-down menu to do it, however I see there is no option for copy, only to move.



Is the ability to mass copy something that could be activated or is it necessary to open each thread to copy it?



That would sure make it faster when trying to copy about 5,000 threads out of an archive of about 20,000..

There is no thread copy feature.

Why do you want to copy all of those threads? That would result in a lot of duplicate content.

we have one massive archive of news...
we want to separate a portion of those articles that related to a certain industry, but still keep a copy in the vault archives...
there must be a solution for this, right?

[Jake Bunce]

A custom solution is required because there is no copy feature. If you have some coding ability then you can post on www.vbulletin.org for help with this.

will it hurt my traffic or search engine results by having two copies of the same article in my forums?
