Vakarian96 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Hello, I just tried to move posts from topic a to topic b in our forum. I had to enter the URL of the destination topic. Then I got the error message a permissions. I am an administrator and have full moderation rights. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Marc Stridgen Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Check you have permission to create a topic in the location you are moving to. Whether you have moderation rights or not, if you dont have permission to create a topic, you wont be able to move to that location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to create a new topic, but I want to move posts from topic A to topic B. Is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The permission for creating a new topic covers moving posts as well. Look from this perspective: moving some posts to an existing topic does create a "new topic" in the meaning that you add more data to the existing topic. So as pointed out make sure to enable permissions for your group in the destination forum: Edited June 12, 2023 by Luuuk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vakarian96 Posted June 12, 2023 Author Share Posted June 12, 2023 @Marc Stridgen Permissions are all correct. I just tested it further, corresponding forum topic was generated from a database entry. I can move to other topics without problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Marc Stridgen Posted June 13, 2023 Solution Share Posted June 13, 2023 Ah, this will likely be why. They are linked to the database entry, so you cannot split them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vakarian96 Posted June 13, 2023 Author Share Posted June 13, 2023 Well I already doubted myself, I go like this and the computer says no. 😄 I had tried to move to a database linked topic. Are there any plans for a fix? If not would be ne other error message Nice, that would save gray harre 🙂  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
