If you never updated please just wait for the final version since you will be able to use the update page instructions.

v.1.16 gamma

• Added known dead links highlighting with red color inside message area. Basically which are in "STATUS" -> "LINKS" table.
• Added new setting in "Options" -> "Posts" -> "Update post time to current time when editing for blogs".
• Added new setting in "Options" -> "Posts" -> "Posts in .txt file separator". Default "#==@==#". For saving / loading multiple posts to/from single file separated with separator.
• Added options when saving multiple posts to file: "Save each post to different file" (default which was always before) or "Save all posts to single file separated by separator".
• Added right click option for "LINKS" table -> "Search for subject in 'LINKS'". Which will basically just copy and paste the subject to search and filter field.
• Added right click option for users list -> "Clear fetching errors history". Rarely needed, if I didn't said that you need to do that you most likely don't.
• Added new button above posts list to "Replace posts with new posts from .txt files" with options to load posts from files by "Match new loaded posts by subject" or "Load new posts in chronological order".
• Fixed xenForo type topic fetching problem.
• Fixed creation internal folder name if URL has illegal characters in it.
• Fixed few small fetching problems.
• Fixed images preview loading which had non-English characters in URL.
• Improved edits background log (in "STATUS -> "EDITS") to a simple table which is easier to read, shows more information and progress is updated in real time.
• Improved topics fetching so you could enter URL with topic ID (not post ID) and multiple topic IDs (URLs) [one per line].
• Improved some tool-tips, buttons placements.
• Other small improvements and fixes.

Final already released: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6275

Update first post to beta with more changes.

Update first post to gamma with some final changes.

I have fooled around with this just for a few minutes now. I'm not sure if I got it right. It looks like this for me:

I can take the files from directory user\posts\forum\username\, mass-edit them as I like (text editor, favorite UNIX-tool or some other regex-black-magic-stuff) and put them back into TM and have TM make the edits? (Well better will save them all as text files from TM with all special elements in place, yes, I read that!)

Is this a hidden Xmas-present you're making in the disguise of "just another non-stable version"? Without any big word? Serious about that?! That would basically mean, I would just need a special element "site" implemented by you to select the site(s) where I want to make those edits actually and I'd be happy for a long, long time - it would make mass edits a LOT easier. :-D

If I'm not mistaken this is a really BIG improvement from my point of view.

New background log looks good BTW!

* You shouldn't really touch the files in "user\posts\forum\username\", I'm saving them as read-only files for a reason. Editing them will only cause bad stuff.

* You could copy paste them to different location, but they would still be read-only files. So you would need to change attributes before you could even edit them.

* I would suggest saving posts from interface to file(s) or you could even have your posts in .txt files saved from before and make needed edits to those files.

* The feature is meant to be used from interface only at the moment. You can select needed posts (filter first if needed) and replace them with new posts from .txt file(s) [loading new .txt files via interface - there is a button in new window at the top for that].

* After pressing "Replace posts" button (final action) there are two options to replace posts for current website only or to search for the same posts in all websites (based on subject preview - which is: subject or first line of message if subject is empty).

* It's not really a hidden present . I'm working on new features all the time.

* When 1.16 final is released (soon) I will mention some FAQ changes (including a new chapter for this feature [not available yet]).

That was what I basically meant with "take them". :-) The current structure of these text files is perfect to read, stream-edit with sed or awk and write them to another location to import them back over the GUI. That's really exciting and won't mess with your data files.

I will study the FAQ when final's released and will probably update one of my suggestions regarding search and replace after that. Looks like you've already implemented 80% of what I intended to be empowered to.

I just was surprised to see such a comparingly big change in a gamma, just as would it be a minor bugfix. That's why I dropped everything and had to test it right away after reading your post. Still happy with your support - not just for Christmas ;-)

Yeah, I understood. Usually just thinking about other people who might misunderstand your post and answer in bigger scale so that they won't get any bad ideas.


I would have much rather just released what was in beta (since there were already quite a lot of changes and last release was more than a month ago), but promised some of these features for few people in 1.16 so kinda just worked a bit more to make them.

Planning to make improvements and some other stuff in future updates as always.
