Thread Splitter
Mod Version: 1.00, by Lairston

This is a port of Keloran Thread Splitter mod found here which is marked as reusable.

This creates a new thread once a thead has reached a certain size and a user posts a new reply to the thread. The new thread will have the same title with a Part # attached to it.

As with the original mod:

• You are able to enable and disable the mod from the settings.
• You are able to assign a user id for the posts that close and open threads
• You can set the number of replies that can be made before the thread is split
• Allow certain forums to continue to have long posts
• Update Subscriptions
• Unsticky threads

My additions:

• You can keep the original author for the new threads
• You can add links to the new thread's first post so that a table of contents of other thread breaks is created

In addition, I've made it so it updates the thread and post counters. And user post counts. I also switched the order of the posts for the newly created parts from the original mod. Now the original first post is in the first post and a message that this is a continuation thread is in the second place.

NOTE

• It adds a new row to the thread table
• it adds a new bbcode to your forum, so that the topic continue doesnt open a new window/tab

Install guide

1. Import product-threadsplitter.xml into the Adminstration Control Panel
2. Goto the BBCode Manager and open it. click to edit the Split bbcode. Save it. Ignore the warning about it not being formed correctly and click continue. For whatever reason it won't function correctly without doing the edit and save.
