How do I move a thread to a different topic?
If you have permission to edit your posts, you may move a thread or conversation that you inadvertently posted in the wrong topic to a different topic. A site administrator may move any thread to a different topic.
Choose the topic with the thread(s) to move.
Select the title of a topic to access the topic.
Note: Topics are indented underneath the forum where they are located.
Select the thread(s) to be moved.
Check the box(es) for the conversation(s) to move.
Note: Check boxes are only available for conversations you have permission to move.
Select where to place the thread(s).
After selecting the Move Threads button, a pop-up window will open with options pertaining to where you will move the selected thread(s). In the Move Threads window:
- You may optionally select the check box to Leave a reminder about the move in the old topic. This will create a link in the old topic that takes you to a thread's new location. It is not selected by default.
- You may filter topics by entering a topic's name in the By Name box or selecting a forum from the In Forum drop-down menu to find topics specific to that forum.
- Select the radio button corresponding to the topic where the conversation belongs.
