Ricardo Torrent Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Hello, I made a mistake and deleted one of my moderators user account instead of removing him from the group. He has re-registered with a new username. Is there any way to assign his old posts to this new account? I would have no problem in editing mysql tables if someone explains it enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron M Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I believe if it's deleted it is gone for good, hence the differentiation between hiding and deletion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pisaldi Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 What do you want ? The counter or the post name assignement?If it is the counter you can modify manuallyUsers --> Users --> name of user --> Account information --> Content itemsIf it is the second option you should know the name which has been assigned once the old user was deleted and you will have to do a manually query Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
