How can I change the owner/publisher of posts?

I would like to change the username of a number of posts.  How can I do this without resorting to mucking about in the database?

Hello @vaxman

In that case you have to rename the user-account who created those posts via the WordPress backend.

If you want to support the development of Asgaros Forum, you can leave a good review or donate. Thank you very much!

Thanks.  Looks like I’ll be SQuirreLing away to change it.

I have a similar issue.

From my understanding of the Asgaros Forum, the ability to change the owner or publisher of posts might not be a built-in feature. However, a potential workaround could involve using user roles and permissions effectively.

You could consider creating a user role (e.g., “Moderator” or “Admin”) that has the authority to manage posts. By granting this role to specific users, they could assist in transferring ownership of posts upon request. It’s important to ensure that your chosen user roles align with your forum’s intended structure and purpose.

Remember, any customization or modification of your forum’s functionality might require technical knowledge or development assistance. If you’re not comfortable with coding or making these changes yourself, you could reach out to a developer or a forum support community to get more specific guidance.

I hope this suggestion helps you find a solution that fits your needs. Best of luck with your forum, and I hope you continue to find success with it!

I’ve done the same with my project
