There doesn't seem much point in turning months old misplaced threads

Do you mean misplaced articles or misplaced threads?

I have started an article conversation and a Google sheet. If anyone wants to help sort through the members pages just let me know and I will add you to the conversation.

Always glad to help out Kathy!

XF1 is unsupported software, and the articles to threads tool has been removed in its entirety in the version for XF2.

In that case the talk about moving them is rather pointless then if the upgraded software doesn't have this facility so deleting them would seem to be the sensible option.

There was no outcome, and there probably won't be one, as this is a chicken site, not a role-playing site.

In that case, given how this is a chicken site, the deletion of the role playing threads and articles will be on the agenda (?)
Of course this is nonsense. BYC isn't just a chicken site there are lots of threads that have nothing to do with chickens.
I might be able to find you a person to fix the moving option if you don't have anyone capable of doing it.

Probably, but there's still a chance that the articles to threads tool could get added back.

I know, but I don't think that we need a specific "roleplaying" articles section. Maybe we could add a "Games, Jokes, Fun" article section if we really need another section for articles that aren't chicken related.

The developer of the articles add-on actually looked into it, and he couldn't find specifically what was wrong. The issue initially presented itself as comments disappearing from articles, but we noticed that it only happened when when the articles to threads tool was used, so we disabled it. I'm not sure if it would be worth trying to fix it on XF1, because we're planning on upgrading the site pretty soon anyway.

We have also taken steps to mitigate the articles that should be posted as threads, like creating a notice that appears at the top of the articles section for new members:

That would work too.

This is fabulous.

That could be a good idea, I just think that we should avoid adding something as specific as roleplaying.

Games, Jokes, and Fun sounds perfect!
