Redmine forum topics are flat?

Added by Tom Copeland almost 14 years ago

Hi all -

I'm working on a GForge => Redmine migration and wanted to confirm a difference between the two. In GForge you can have a forum thread with serveral "subthreads". That is a message can have several replies that spawn off other branches of the thread. Here's an example:

http://rubyforge.org/forum/message.php?msg_id=87

When I convert this to Redmine, I create all the Message objects and set the parent_id appropriately. But only some of those child messages show up - for example, this one doesn't:

http://rubyforge.org/forum/message.php?msg_id=91

To me it looks like Redmine forum threads are flat - all replies are just replies to one parent, with no subthreads. Does that sound right?

Thanks,

Tom

IIRC yes. One Forum tab per project, many forums in that tab, many threads per forum, and many (flat) replies per thread.
