Cannot move threads - just get a blank box with an 'X'

Hi,

I've just updated my Vanilla install to the latest version, but now when I try to move a thread I just get a small empty box with an 'X' in it? Any ideas what's up please? The split functionality works fine.

Thanks

  • Sorry I'm using version Version 2.1.3 of Vanilla

    And Version 1.01 of Split/Merge

    Here's what I get when I try to move some posts:

    three things come to mind.

    1 - upgrade vanilla - but you knew that.
    2 - security problems are more of an issue than getting plugins to work.
    3 - try using the split/merge that comes with vanilla core.

    and a fourth if you haven't read it.

  • Thank you very much peregrine, how do I use the split/merge that comes with vanilla core? I've disabled the plugin version I have but now can't split or merge

    I would try split merge version 1.1 from vanilla 2.1 core zip file

    extract it and move it.

    also you could try the one that comes with master version of vanilla, of split/merge 1.2 on github.

    I've tested neither.

  • just looked at the split/merge that comes with core. it doesn't have a move option.

    Thank you peregrine... sounds like my best option could be to hope that the extension author fixes it then :) I'll take a look at the code myself later but I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for.

    Cheers

    the problem is here at a minimum .... line 127 or so in split/merge FE

        $CommentModel = new CommentModel();
                        $CommentModel->SQL
                            ->Update($CommentModel->Name)
                            ->Set('DiscussionID', $ResultDiscussionID)
                            ->WhereIn('CommentID', $DiscussionCommentIDs)
                            ->Put();
    

    S hasn't fixed anything in recent times. think he has moved on.

    what you could do is request move comment feature on github so it might "move" could possibly get incorporated into the standard split/merge.

    and it moved the comment in vanilla 2.1, which is the goal.

    or you got that error? and it didn't move the the comment in 2.1 despite where you moved your mouse :wink:
