Quote from: Baron von Schtinkenbutt on July 01, 2025, 12:28:08 PMWell, it's not going to be so simple.  The database schema doesn't have a proper foreign key setup, so I need to manually identify every table that references topic IDs and edit those columns as well. :rolleyes:

Surely you can let AI do that? - Every manager, currently.

Alternatively: "Can't you just do search/Replace"? - Users who think data tables work like Excel sheets.

Other option is go the classic route and outsource to India :P

Quote from: HVC on July 01, 2025, 06:32:25 PMMeh I think you're just alright.



:P kidding, I too greatly appreciate it.

Thanks guys. :hug:  I have a plan, just haven't had the combination of time and mental energy lately to develop and test it.

Lulz.  The actual solution is going to involve me searching through the schema dump to find all the tables that reference a column that matches the post ID column name.  At least whomever designed this schema was nice enough to use the same name everywhere (I think).

Maybe we should close the Forum and start a new one?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Take your time - best to do it without rushing. :) If there's anything we can do to help/pitch in just let us know.
