Manually add threads and posts
While I'm sure many of you think this is a bad idea... I want to do it anyway.
One possible use is having a user enter in the url of a news story and then a generic user "newsman" or something will automatically create a new thread with that news story for people to comment on. Since I am just dealing with 1 user and no moderation (in my case), then I believe all I have to do is add-to/modify the following tables:
forum
user (optional because it's a fake user, but I'll do it anyway)
thread
post
posthash
Does that seem right? Does postindex come into play at all? I realize that I'll still have to do the dupecheck before posting.
Any comments, suggestions, and ideas are welcome. Thank you.
