Issue Summary

Hi, good to see that this module is being kept alive! I haven't used it in a long time, and I see the warning on the project page (which is a great idea, btw, I wish more maintainers had the guts to do this).

What I need to do right now is move a few comments from one node to another. Some of them have children. Does that currently work? I know that you won't give me an absolute guarantee, but I just want to gauge how likely it is that I'll have to restore the database from a backup ;)

Comments

#1

The 1.x version does work but in very limited scenarios. For just moving a couple comments to the bottom (if displaying flat) of another node it works fairly well. But I would always recommend making a db backup.

Most of the current issues with the module are not really bugs with the module but instead it successfully does what it was designed to do but users are expecting other things entirely(rightfully so). The reasons for this I have discussed in some of the issues in this queue if you are adventuress.

Okay, thanks! I'll try it on the weekend.
