[3.2][3.3][BETA] ACP Merge Child Forums

Post by Toxyy »

Extension Name: ACP Merge Child Forums
Author: toxyy
Special thanks to: 3Di
Extension Description: Merge child forums from the ACP in 3.2/3.2
Extension Version: 1.0.0
Requirements:
  • phpBB 3.2+/3.3+
  • PHP 7.1.3+
Extension Download: https://github.com/toxyy/acpmergechildf ... -1.0.0.zip
Github repository: https://github.com/toxyy/acpmergechildforums
Languages: en
Features:
  • Adds a form with a forumbox while editing a forum under Forum settings, any selected forums will be deleted. Multiple can be selected. Be careful that when selecting an extremely large amount, it can be slow. Keep that in mind when using the "All forums" button.
Installation/notes:
Note: This extension uses events from at latest 3.1.2. There should be no compatibility issues phpBB version wise whatsoever, though I have only tested this on phpBB 3.3.7 and php 8.1 to be fair.

You can install this on the latest release of phpBB 3.2 by following the steps below:
  • Files already in folders toxyy/acpmergechildforums in the zip, no need to make any folders
  • Download and unpack the repository into ext
  • Enable ACP Merge Child Forums in the ACP at Customise -> Manage extensions
Uninstall
  • Disable ACP Merge Child Forums in the ACP at Customise -> Extension Management -> Extensions
  • To permanently uninstall, click Delete Data, optionally delete the /ext/toxyy/acpmergechildforums directory.

Why:
Have you ever found yourself needing to delete a lot of subforums, but don't want to do them one by one?
Let's just say, the time it took to write this extension is much, much smaller than the time it'd take to fix this forum manually.
