My board has three admins. One of us somehow got two member numbers/two memberships back when we first started using Threads a couple of years ago. Every time she's online, both of her memberships are active. One has one set of her posts, though, and the other has another set of her posts. Do any of you gurus know any way to merge her two identities into one without losing any of her posting history? It doesn't seem to cause any problems with how the board runs, it just bugs me.

Not for the faint of heart.... so backup your database twice and cross your fingers before doing this... but what you need to do is pick one usernumber of hers and delete it. Then you need to reassign everything from that usernumber, to their other usernumber. This requires updating a bunch of tables - I posted an extensive list of all the queries needed to do this in this thread:
