UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 Mod Questions Updating thread after Carnell editing

I discovered that when Carnell Utilities are used to edit threads (basically editing raw UBB message#.cgi files), the thread doesnt really "update" and becomes broken. The forum where that thread was then needs to be "updated" for the thread to work (edit/reply/etc), otherwise a message that the forum number does not match appears. Any suggestions (other than updating the forum ;))? Perhaps adding an update thread function, but so that it updates only that thread? Any help would be appreciated.

[edit]on a side note, the whole editing routine seems a bit whacky, and besides that doesnt support last post by although documentation suggests it should[/edit]

I know there is some problems with 5.45c when you edit prune or index your forum, but i am not sure about 5.46

In 5.45c you can solve the problem like this, after editing, pruning or indexing a thread you need to submit your General settings once without any changes and after that you can update your threads

Thanks for your reply
Well I basically figured out I can use update threads CP function for that forum to do the same, but I was wondering if its possible to write something like that for individual threads?

Hmmm, you want only one thread to edit?

Not one. I am just thinking if its possible to update threads individually.. hmmm
