Now it would
be nice if the person who gets on implementing the mass manual ID
reassigment in manage/user-notes.php would speak out, so no more than
one guy would be involved with this.
What do we need to do here?
Do you want a program to go to the master server, so that you type the old
ID and a new one, and it will automatically copy the notes?
How the notes are stored? Is it in a mysql table??
Jakub probably already has better experience with this, since he provided patches for php-master-web before. The code is in php-master-web/manage/user-notes.php, and that should be extended to offer an option to mass modify manual IDs (or sections are they are stored).
UPDATE notes SET section = %newsection WHERE section = %oldsection
should be parameterized from the web interface (with appropriate table and column names of course :).
