I need to run each night a script who locks unactive topics and removes oldest ones from the DB...

I can modify the DB without problem, but I suspect I have to run "check forum consistency" afterwards. How can I do it from a script?

Later,
Ste

If you use Forum's functions to remove & lock topics you do not need to run the consistency checker. The consistency will be maintained automatically.

I think you are saying to make a php script using fud functions...

Mh... the fact is I have python scripts made to work with xmb, and I wanted to re-use them without rewriting too much.

Well, I could write something in php after all.
If you want to, I could post those scripts (once made).

later,

I do not use Python so for my perpouses that would be quite useless.
If you are just going to be deleting data from MySQL then you indeed need to run the consistency checker. You can do that by making a copy of the php script and removing the auth code from it and then using python (?) doing exec( php -q script_name ) to run it.
