| Title | Warnings about editing Conversr on the wrong site for an MSN |
| Status | Completed |

| Description | If you have an MSN running on Conversr, some forum/member/group edit screens work on local copies only, not the MSN data. Thus the changes are not observed.
Show a warning about this OR possibly redirect people to the central site automatically from the links. Member merging... I noticed this message when merging two members: "If you are running a multi-site-network you may wish to perform a merge on all network sites before proceeding to delete the member." I had to remove it as that was shown AFTER the member was already deleted. We'll have to add an optional delete checkbox, with a note similar to the above – but only make that checkbox show if an MSN is on (no need to confuse users not running MSNs). Also add some precedence options - e.g. should CPFs be overwritten if the target has a different CPF value. |

Welcome Mails for good reason - they truly are per-site.
I think it's probably done like that with CPFs so that new satellite sites don't end up polluting the central site each time something new is installed, but it seems dubious - that should probably change. For now though, I am modifying the admin_cns_customprofilefields module to set FORUM_DB:=SITE_DB for the run-time of that module, to avoid serious confusion.
However the problem is uploads won't end up on the central site, because the satellite has no access.
