Module Description
Description
This module allows you to move comments and nodes around.

You can either

a) move comments below other comments on the same node b) move comments to another node or comment c) convert comments to a forum topic (or to any other node type) d) convert nodes to comments with preserving data from the same field instances.

The children comments are always moving along with their parent entity.

Installation
Enable this module as usual. Go to /admin/structure/block page and move the 'Clipboard' block to a desire region, for example, 'Sidebar'. Optionally set the 'administer comments' permissions for your user if you are not the full admin.

Usage
Cutting You will see two additional links under each of nodes and comments on the site: Click on the 'cut' link under the entities you want to move around. They will be added to the Clipboard block. You can delete any of them from the clipboard by clicking on the red crest icon. Pasting Then select an entity where you want to paste all of the cutted entities and click on the 'paste' link under it. If you will click on the 'paste' link under the node itself, the clipboard will be pasted as comments in the first level of the node's comments hierarhy (nested comments will keep their thread positions under their parent comments) If you will paste the clipboard under a comment, all cutted entities will become children comments to that comment (nested comments will keep their thread positions too). All moved entities will be deleted from their previous places. Converting If you want to convert all cutted entities to nodes of some type, just select that type in the selectbox under the 'Clipboard' block. All entities will be converted to the nodes with the choosen node type. If the cutted comments had the same field instances as the destination node type, then the data from that fields will be moved along too.

Live demo
Live demo for Drupal 7 is no longer available. A live demo using simplytest.me is in preparation.

Dependencies
This module has no dependencies.

Version 2.0.x has no required dependencies, but will have optional support for several other comment related modules:


* Forum used to be part of core, but is now a contrib module. If installed, there will be a "paste" link on main forum pages to allow comments to be pasted as new forum topics in that forum.
* Flatcomments forces comments to be only one level deep. If installed, Comment Mover will not show "paste" links on comments, only on entities. If a comment with children (possibly because they dated from before Flatcomments was installed) is pasted, the child comments will all be pasted as children of the entity, not the former parent comment.

Other modules may be added to this list, but none will be required.

Maintaining and further development
Version 2.0.x is under active development for Drupal 9/10. It is intended to reach at least feature parity with Drupal 7 version.

7.x-1.x is the only other supported branch. Bug fixes will be reviewed, but no new features will be considered.

The 6.x and earlier versions are not supported anymore.
