How to move all threads from one subforum to another?

nodemode

Hi,

We are trying to move all threads from three different subforum sections on our forum, to one single subforum.

Is there an easy way to do this?

Right now it seems like we have to click on each individual topic and manually move it to the new subforum, which will take a very long time!

Thanks

@nodemode 1-st of all you need to create new subforum, that you will need. Than go to the each of 3 subforum and click button "Topic Tools" ==> "Move all" ==> and select subforum, that you create to move all topics from this subforum. It may take quite a long time if count of topics too large - dont worry.

Clicking the avatar in the categories section only allows us to change the avatar image of that category. We can't find where else to access the topic tools menu in the admin settings.

We are using v1.4.5, not sure if that's the cause.
When we try to upgrade to 1.6.1 we get a 404 error.

It's not in the admin panel, it's on the category page. The drop-down menu should be top right.

@nodemode If you click to select a topic (from the category page itself), you can then shift-click lower down the page to select every topic in between
