question about moving group/forum threads
Using Jamroom
Strumelia:
I have the JR tools to move a Forum discussion into a Group. Would doing that automatically make all the thread posters of that moved forum thread Members of the Group then, without them having to actually join the group on their own? Would they then show up among the group members list simply by moving the discussion there?
Haven't tested it, but by our normal logic I would say 'No'. On the grounds that the group may be private and the forum thread may have been put in the wrong place.
If the requested action is "move this from forums to groups" that would be the extent of the action I would expect to be taken.
I would expect that the follows to the forum post WOULD NOT follow over to the group. Following a forum thread is following a forum thread. If the thread ceases to be a forum thread then you're not following it anymore.
Strumelia:
And the same question for if I move a discussion from one Group to another- do all the people who posted in that discussion then become members (join) the Group that now contains the discussion? And do they get "un-joined' from the original Group that housed the discussion? (assuming they had no other posts in other group threads there)
moving it should just move the discussion and have no effect on member-joined-ship
