There is a filter for unlinked assets that nothing is using. If it is not under there, it is in use somewhere.
Solved how to merge topics in admin ?

How to merge topics of same category or even better different category in admin ?
-
Has there been internal discussions about adding the ability to merge topic threads? I see that I can move a thread between categories but I cannot find a way to take a thread and join it with an existing thread.
Thank you.
-
Has been made any progress with this feature? Would be great if we could merge topics. I think this is a essential feature. Thank you

Excuse me but, what do you all mean by merging topics? I do not understand the idea behind it.

There´s an option to divide topics , why not one for merge similar ones?!
When you merge a topic, the posts of one topic are added into the other topic. -
There is some issues on github about that but not developed yet
-
@sanatisharif seems legit. The thing i can not see clearly is how you would mix the posts from both topics, since the order on each topic is essential to presserve the meaning of the 'conversation'. If you do it by post date, the topic merged could turn into a non-sense.
-
I also have users that keep using the reply as topic, it'll be nice to be able to merge both topic or turn off the reply ss topic button.
-
@evoixmr you can "turn off" the reply as topic button for bite by hiding it with CSS.
-
@PitaJ I know this is off topic but can you tell me exactly what to change?
-
@evoixmr you can use this in your custom CSS:
[component="topic/reply/container"] .btn.dropdown-toggle { display: none; } -
@PitaJ That worked thanks.

We can easily move posts of second topics to end of first topic just after last post.
Topic 1
Topic 1 first post
...
....
Topic 1 last post
Tpoic 2
Topic 2 first post
....
...
Topic 2 last post -
@sanatisharif I'm trying to think of a situation where this would be useful. The only scenario in my head would be a topic that is the same as another but doesn't have a conversation yet. If both topics had more than just that first post you'd end up adding a different conversation (though related) to the first conversation. It has a big potential to confuse users. Although, seeing as it is an admin function, it would be up to the admin to determine when it is best suited. So not a horrible feature, but I don't actually see it being used very often.

This is a real example:
-
https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/4804 - seems like this will be released in 1.7.2
closed Feature request: merge topics #4804
-
Yes indeed, @baris heard everybody's pleas and added it
-
How are we doing on the "merge topics" front? I'm trying to merge some topics together as admin but can't find the option to do so. Has this been implemented and I'm too dumb to find it?
-
@kelnel you merge two topics by selecting them both in the category view, and going up to the topic menu.
