This is an issue to hold my thoughts for the moderation submodule. This won't actually be implemented for some months so please don't "subscribe" to it.

Thread moderation
* Use Views Bulk Operations
* Checkbox on each reply
* Can move to new thread with oldest reply becoming the topic starting node
* Can move to an existing thread
* Can mass delete
* View of topics that allows moving to another forum in bulk
* Some of this is blocked on #366355: Make VBO work with different Views styles
* #833182: How to move some comments from one node to another? could have some interesting info if it gets answered.

Spam control
* View of user's posts with option to delete, unpublish, report to Mollom...

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this will make it in 2.x

Michelle, thanks for all your hard work with the AF module. Impressive stuff. It was Drupal's forum & organic group functionality that convinced me to choose it as a solution over other options in the first place.

I'm not subscribing ;) but would just like to say I think this proposed moderation submodule would be incredibly useful for many of us out there in the Drupalverse, and would greatly strengthen what is already a fine piece of work.

Thanks again,

Aaron

It would be useful to me, too. It's just postponed... Not canceled. Drupal 7's imminence is forcing me to cut short features and get a 2.0 out so I can get porting.

Is there any "hack" solution?

Using nodecomments every comment in the advanced forum is a node. Maybe the only thing that has to be changed is the parent id (pid) of a comment (datebase table node_comments if I am right).

For Forum Admins we could give possiblity to clear the parent id --> a new thread will be created.

Maybe this is easy, only a few lines of code and a cck field.
Is this right? How can it be realized?

Maybe we can use the "duplicate" module to duplicate a comment and rearrange it (new parent id, make it to a top node, etc).

Un-postponing but that doesn't mean I plan to work on it right now. Just want it more visible.

A road block I ran into last time I tried... if you split a thread and make new topic out of the reply, need to transfer anything attached to the node such as CCK fields. Should look at Node Convert and see how it does it.

Moderation won't happen in D6. It's a huge project and D6 is on the way out. Moving to D7 but postponing until there is a 3.x branch for feature requests.
