Well, this google group is already the meeting place for this community. And will remain if it isn't actively closed by those responsible for it.

Though I do almost know nothing about server-sides, but to set up a forum, to moderate and shift threads I found easier than adjusting TWs. It usually just works out of the box :-) (it's really that easy as marking the thread with a checkbox and selecting the forum where to move) > moderators who will move threads here and there, and do it so that > thread creators won't lose their threads and understand why the thread > is moved, without hard feelings. If a thread is moved because there would be a better fitting category a note is left by default where it has been moved and for what reason (for a predefined time). And if a few regular users would serve as moderators something like moving a wrongly placed thread would have to be done maybe once a week. > This sounds incomprehensible. Are you talking about refactoring 55 > thousands threads? Don't know, but it should be possible to import existing threads into a subforum and from there to their proper category from time to time. Its that many posts only, and with a few threads like this one with already more than 50 posts alone it's much, much less. Also because the much better custom search of forum software, even non-categorized it would be still easier to find things. Then just to categorize the most recent 2 years its only about 10000 posts, which maybe amounts 2-3000 threads. Theoretical sorting 3 treads per day only - I alone could do that in one year easily! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
