Adds the in-line moderator option "Change Post Date". This addon is designed for very large threads, and search index updating occurs in a deferred task.

Search re-indexing can potentially take a while, but occurs in a deferred task.

Performance impact

The actual post date change is very fast, but it forces a full re-index of all posts in the thread. This triggers the following performance issue:
Thread updates unexpectedly slow as thread increases in size , this is avoided by pushing the search index deferred task creation into a deferred task itself.

This ensures the end-user isn't impacted by the lengthy deferred task creation.

Installation

I recommend using Add-on install & upgradeor Install and Upgrade by waindigo to install this addon.
