Major update to ItemIDs for user content[Subject Thread] [Add Response]

<P>I have made a major update to the ItemIDs of member-submitted pages. I have replaced them with ones derived from an ASCIIfied version of each page's Summary field. This provides most of them with a <A HREF="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_URL#Slug">slug</A> that matches the full name given for the page. ItemIDs have been changed in every table that uses them, so that comments and other details are not lost. I also generated a table matching each new ItemID with the old one, just in case I need it. I already used it to update the Comment table when I realized it wasn't called Comments, and I will later use it to update links to rules pages in Game Courier presets. Another thing I plan to do is provide the code used to generate the new slug-ready type of ItemID to scripts for submitting content.</P>
