    Hi all,

    need a sanity check if you’d be so kind 😊

    Need to merge two members, and have the added complication of this being a forum module site - so both comments and forum posts merged to a profile with comments and forum posts AND weblog entries.

    Thinking I can leave the weblog entries portion alone, as that is the pmemebr to remain, and that I would only have to worry about changing the author_id in:

    exp_forum_posts
    exp_forum_topics
    exp_comments

    and after that a recount would take care of the rest, e.g. I would not need to do it manually.

    Many thanks!

    Okay, I’ll give it a go and let you know if it works or breaks…

    Yes, it’s what I’d do, too. Just be sure to make a backup first 😊 Good luck.
