Thread Split [XenForo 2.3x Add-ons]

[MadeBy2D]

A new product by MadeBy2D is available: Thread Split 1.0.5 - Automatically split long-running threads when configurable thresholds are reached.

Thread Split 1.0.5​

Description​

Thread Split automatically splits long-running threads into numbered parts when post or page thresholds are reached, while keeping watchers, navigation, and reading position intact. Define a threshold once globally, override per forum, or override per thread. When a thread crosses the limit, a continuation thread is created, watchers and active readers are carried over, and a chain links every part together with prev/next navigation.

Features
Threshold-based auto-split

• Trigger split by post count or page count
• Three-tier cascade: global default -> per node configuration -> per-thread override

Two split modes

• Grace mode: wait N minutes of inactivity before splitting to avoids cutting an active conversation mid-flow
• Hard mode: split immediately when the threshold is crossed

Chain navigation

• Numbered parts with configurable title template
• Chain menu with parts index and next / previous links

Watcher and viewer continuity

• Existing thread watchers migrated to the new part (configurable)
• Users currently viewing the old thread receive a "continued" alert with opt-out

Configurable continuation post

• Templated continuation post auto-inserted into the new part
• Title template editable globally or per forum

Thread move handling

• Choose what happens when a chain part is moved between forums:
  • Detach the moved thread (default)
  • Allow the chain to span forums
  • Move the whole chain together

Error log and stuck-split recovery

• Dedicated admin Thread split error log page under Logs, with filters by phase, chain, and date range
• Every deferred job (split execution, watcher migration, viewer alerts, parts-summary rebuild, whole-chain move) wraps failures with full context and writes them to the log
• Background cron detects stuck or orphaned pending splits, retries them once, and clears the queue automatically
• Old log entries auto-prune after 30 days; manual "Clear all" available

CLI Commands

Spoiler: CLI Commands

mc-threadsplit:show-chain <chain_id> — diagnostic dump for a chain (parts, post counts, watcher counts)
mc-threadsplit:cleanup-orphans — find and delete chain_thread rows pointing to non-existent threads, plus chains with zero members
mc-threadsplit:detach <thread_id> — detach a thread from its chain and renumber survivors
mc-threadsplit:dissolve <chain_id> — delete a chain entirely; member threads remain unchained
mc-threadsplit:relink <thread_id> <chain_id> <position> — attach an unchained thread to an existing chain at a given position
mc-threadsplit:renumber <chain_id> — recompute part_number 1..N ordered by first post date (idempotent)

A new update is available for Thread Split by MadeBy2D.

Thread Split 1.0.6​

Update highlights​

We have released a new version one major new feature and impro

• New: Chain marker prefix
  • A configurable thread prefix is automatically applied to threads in a chain
  • Original-thread policy controls how the marker is applied on the first split: always apply replacing any existing prefix, apply only if the original thread has no prefix, or leave the original thread unchanged
  • Per-forum override. Each forum's Thread Split configuration gains a Chain marker prefix row, so different forums can use different markers (or none).
  • Automatic forum association. When the marker isn't yet enabled in a target forum, the addon adds it on demand, both when a chain is created and when a chained thread is moved. The marker survives moves under all three chain-move policies
  • Includes support for Multi Prefix by @Xon. The marker is added alongside existing prefixes rather than replacing them, with a Before/After placement option
  • Access control via standard XF permissions: restrict who can pick the marker manually through the prefix's user-group permissions
• Improvement: Cross-chain SEO linking
  • Chained threads now emit <link rel="prev"> and <link rel="next"> tags across part boundaries, so a megathread reads to search engines as one continuous, ordered series
  • Each part keeps its own self-canonical tag, so all parts stay independently indexable
  • Soft-deleted or non-viewable parts are never linked
• Bug fix: N+1 query when Cron/PendingSplits runs has been addressed.
• Bug fix: Strip unknown tokens from continuation post template.
