Moving Threads to Proper Category

[FireFlyWebs]

Are there instructions regarding moving a thread/comment/reply to its proper category by the moderator?

Hi @fireflywebs ,

That was helpful, thank you. I have been able to move ‘topics’ under a subcategory to a proper sub category. Works nicely. But what about moving a ‘comment/reply’ within a topic? Is this doable.

AND, is it safe to delete a reply/comment within a new topic (under a sub category) without deleting any other comments below that? I am waiting for the answer to this before I try it because this morning I deleted the ‘first’ comment…. one of my own…. under a new topic as it was just a placeholder and note so the sub would appear on the front end…., and unfortunately all the comments/replies below it also disappeared. So now I’m spooked about deleting comments/replies in general.

Hi @fireflywebs

Here is the video tutorial on how to move a reply between topics:

Regarding deleting content: If you delete any parent item, all child items will also be deleted from the database. In your case, you deleted the parent reply, so all child replies associated with that parent reply were also deleted from the database. Another example: if you delete a topic, all replies within that topic will also be automatically deleted from the database. The topic is the parent element, and all replies are the child elements of that topic.
