Moving comments
Am I right in saying that, short of hacking the db, there is no way of moving comments from one post to another?
I have a couple of people who insist on leaving comments attached to the wrong post! :)

Re: Moving comments
I usually end up deleting their comment and reposting it myself with their details. The IP address of the comment won’t be correct, but that really doesn’t matter.

Re: Moving comments
Yeah, in the end, that’s what I did, but I was wondering if there was a more elegant way.
Not a big issue though… :)

Re: Moving comments
What I do is login to phpMyAdmin
Click ‘browse’ on txp_discuss
find the comment
Click the ‘edit’ icon (the pencil)
The parent ID is the id of the article in messy mode which the comment is attached to.
Change the id number to the one of the article you feel that the comment belongs to.
