I want to import some old "News" stuff into my "Announcements" forum, but I don't want my users to notice that straight away. So I was thinking of just manually adding posts to the "Post" table (with the dates when the "News" were actually new...).

In order to to that, I need a way to compute "post_unique_id", so what is the algorithm used for this?

Would there be any other things I have to do? (Probably also update the "forum_total" and "forum_total_threads" fields in the "Forum" table.

Thanks for your help.
