[CMS] Use original thread for comments
Developer Last Online: Sep 2014 
As of 4.1.11 this functionality is included in vbulletin. So you no longer need this mod.
What does this do? This is a really simple hack that sets the thread for article comments to be the original thread for any thread that is promoted to an article. What can I use it for? This mod has two major uses: 1. If you have a wealth of information in your forums and you want to promote it into articles, this mod allows you to retain the rest of the thread as comments in the cms while adding any new comments as replies to the thread; essentially allowing it to function as both a forum thread and a CMS article. 2. If you want to use multiple fourms for CMS comments. This is a fairly none obvious use case, but probably a popular one. If you have three sections in your cms (for example) and want each section to feed into its own forum, the current cms dosn't allow you to do this. With this mod installed, you can. Instead of creating your new article directly in the cms create it in the forum you wish to use for comments. Write your article as the first post of the thread and promote it to a cms article. Fill out the extra information needed (eg publish date) and save. Comments will be saved into the original thread, in the forum you created it in. Installation Vb 4.0.1 and later 1. Import product Uninstallation 1. Disable the plugin "set thread id" Full uninstallation 1. Move threads that have been promoted to articles into the vbcms comments forum. 2. COPY the threads back to their original forums 3. Remove product Steps 1 and 2 are needed to retain cache functions on the comments threads. Without them new comments will not appear on the article.

Will fix the deleting problem asap; however there seems to be a lack of useful hooks for it.
Can you give me more details about the second problem?

I've made a reasonable attempt to fix the deleting problem which has proved sucessful on my dev board. However you will still lose some data (thread tags) pending the hook I used being moved to a more sensible place.
Read the notes section for the other minor known issues. (and their fixes)

This will be AMAZINGLY useful. It's honestly the way comments for promoted threads should act in the CMS.

Just what I need.
 Looking forward to further development of this mod. Would like to see the article displaying the original post as well. That way when a member updates their post it will be reflected in the article as well.

Hi Carnage!
It's so strange that this isn't a default option in vBulletin. My question is if step 1 and 2 are still needed with the gold release? If not, you might wanna update your first post. Another question is if you can tell me how the development is going for this mod? Will there be some improvements soon and worth the waiting? It's always nice to be kept up-to-date. I thank you for the time. All that's left to is that this is a great and must-have mod! Only reason why I don't just install it is because it's still in beta stage and since my vBulletin knowledge is pretty limited, I need fully tested products hehe. That's why I leave this reply. I hope you understand. Keep up the good work! No members have liked this post.
