Thanks!!! Talk about a nightmare, these forums are not even close to being done, I wanted to share this hack instantly because I posted in the area wondering if one of these were out there, apparently there wasn't none:

Really good idea, I applaud your willingness to start on this almost immediately. I'm planning on opening up a big board soon and I will be using this hack. Thanks!

I am now planning on a "mass edit forums hack" now, because the repetitive tasks that are the same within 281 cities needs to be streamlined rather than piddling around. So any ideas throw them my way and I'll implement them accordingly. Thanks for the comments. No members have liked this post.

That way is nicer on the server resources if you are not slaving the MySQL Databases as you should when running 4,000+ forum categories like I did with the above forums. Anyhow I'll get those up later to share as well. So basically a 2 part hack here! No members have liked this post.

Hi there. I have a problem with 3.6.7. After installing everything and adding child forums, they don't have the same properties as the parent forum, I don't know why. So I have to edit all sub forum by myself and that takes much time. What do I have to do ?

![]() Anyhow not too sure why it's not working for you but it does inherit the properties in any 3.6+ version of it's parent forums... If you like click install and, send me a PM of your forums with some admin login so I can take a look at what you are referencing to find where you are going wrong... No members have liked this post.
