Haven't noticed any problems. We used it here to combine the archived finished mods forum and the archived beta mods forum.

Instead of the number 30, I used a variable $massmovenumber= 30; and carefully increased it up to 3000
This way I archived 20 000 threads with no maior difficulty. Works great!!
Now I put it back to $massmovenumber= 300; as 3000 should be used with great care only!!

LOL
I know sometimes we're not much help..... but I guess at least if others say they know it works under 6.3 then you know to double check instructions. I've installed things and stared at them until I was blue.... only to finally find what I did wrong.

I'm having some problems running this one too. If I select two posts, I'm only seeing the first one get moved. I haven't finished looking at it, but the update seems to do the correct "OR". One thing I did find was that $oldboard was not getting set in doviewmovethreads, and only the updating for the new boards was getting run.

Okay, I found why the last thread isn't moved, here is an example:
UPDATE w3t_Posts
SET B_Board = 'website'
WHERE B_Main = '1569' OR B_Main = '35731'
AND B_Board = ''
;
The precedence of AND and OR makes it: B_Main = '1569 OR (B_Main = '35731' AND B_Board = '') which is all except the last one. I fixed it by adding parens around the WHERE $Formatted_q in the UPDATE. Of course it doen't move posts now becasue of $oldbard not being set, so on to that...

That was easy enough. After adding Code:
$oldboard = get_input("oldboard","post");
to the top where it was seting newboard it seems to be running correctly now.

This modification has one small problem, it allows moderators to move threads to forums they do not have moderator access to. The fix is below.
IN VIEWMOVETHREADS.PHP
FIND THIS:
Code:
$initialcat = "";
$boardSelect = "<select name=\"newboard\" class=\"formboxes\">";
while ( list($Title,$Board,$Catnum,$Sorter,$Name) = $dbh -> fetch_array($sth)) {
AND CHANGE IT TO THIS:
Code:
$initialcat = "";
$boardSelect = "<select name=\"newboard\" class=\"formboxes\">";
while ( list($Title,$Board,$Catnum,$Sorter,$Name) = $dbh -> fetch_array($sth)) {
$Board_q = addslashes($Board);
$query = "
SELECT Mod_Board
FROM {$config['tbprefix']}Moderators
WHERE Mod_Uid = '{$user['U_Number']}'
AND Mod_Board = '$Board_q'
";
$sti = $dbh -> do_query($query);
list($check) = $dbh -> fetch_array($sti);
if ( ($user['U_Status'] != 'Administrator') && (!$check) ) {
continue;
}

Normal functionality in Threads is that a moderator can move posts to any forum that they can WRITE to. They don't have to be moderators in the forum they are moving TO. The move function in threads works the same way. Thus the moderator of a forum can move posts OUT of their forum to the correct forum.
