I really don't see the point in not implement this. I will update my hook, just in case:

All resources from IP.Board 3.4 were removed from marketplace. Like IP.Board 3.4, those resources are not supported anymore.

Ok thanks, I don't suppose there is any point in creating a plugin for 4.1 now with 4.2 so near. 

Is it possible to reset the archive status with a simple SQL query or is it more complicated than that?

[Adriano Faria]

Do you still use 3.4?

You can manually re-archive a topic in 4.2.

Charles, sorry to be a pain. Having tried out the 4.2 beta I can see the option to rearchive a topic from within.

The problem is when you have hundreds of topics to rearchive that will take a long time as there is no mass option in forum display or the admin panel option.

When you first released it I had a play on my forum, wasn't aware that unarchiving would prevent topics from being rearchived. I now have years worth I'm looking to rearchive so I can split the database. 

Unless I'm blind or dumb which is highly likely I can't see any admin panel options which would be super helpful.

Rearchive topic if X, X, X, click done and wait for the magic to happen in the background. 

I'm paying the cost for playing without thinking about the consequences, I've served my time now please realease my topics
