Hi,
I want to move a topic permanently from one forum to another,webwizforums 7.01 does the ~copying~ successfully, but leaves the topic in the original forum with a "Moved:" in front of the topic name.
I noticed that if I delete the topic from the original forum, it gets deleted from the forum i moved it to also.

Question: Is it possible to move a topic from forum 1 to forum 2, and then get rid of the topic from the original forum 1 completely ?

Thanks

Warren

In version 7.5+ when you click the admin icon next to a topic when moving or even after, there is a checkbox that you can check or de-check for showing the moved icon in the forum the post is moved from.

The other option is going into the database itself and removing the moved reference.

If you are interested in this option, I could tell you how.

But ideally you should upgrade to the latest version which gives you more control of things like that. The new version has some neat features and is worth the upgrade.
