Generating a forum numerical ID list

[kgroneman]

I know you can find forum numerical IDs in admincp by mousing over the forum in the forum list there. Is there a better way to list ALL forums and IDs? Has anyone written a script or anything that will do this?

We have to change our forum layout from time to time as our product groupings change and it's a real pain to have to mouse over each forum to get the ID to go change old referring SEO URLs.

Thanks in advance.

An easy way is to hover on the newreply button. It will show the forumid in it in the status bar.

otherwise, you can open up phpmyadmin and do a simple query like

SELECT * from forum

to show all the forum info

Thanks Brian. I'll try phpmyadmin.
